Eleventh Thread: Wedding Edition: The Hobbit Hole XI - No One Admitted Except on Wedding Business!
New verse:
Upon the hearth the fire is red, |
Still round the corner there may wait |
Home is behind, the world ahead, |
It would need a disgrontificator as well.
"It would need a disgrontificator as well."
For some reason that word strikes me as something Don King would say :)
*groans* yikes..
I just saw the edited version of the picture I posted and I'd really rather it not be there of me alone. Could you remove it?
Also, I didn't realize that it was a private web page, I thought it was part of FR. Please forgive my intrusion. Thanks
To make some disgruntled?
Oh - you don't want just you to be in the photo album? What photo album were ~you~ talking about? Call us confused. The hobbit hole dot net site where they are is ecurbh's and it is only for us here at the Free Republic.
Hey howdy there! [sip]
Wassup? Looks like Friday got here just in the nick of time. [sip]
Did you get enough sleep after the long night? did you see the pics and concert report (1,539)?
We updated the dot net site photo album too (photo album)....
Don King:
I've been disgrontified by the fantabulosity of the exaggerficated allegamations, which are substantulogically non sequitonious.
Hi, Ramius--happy Friday! :)
I didn't realize that it was a private web page, I thought it was part of FR.
No, I don't like the edited version. I'm just requesting that you remove it. Thanks
Yah... saw the photos and the review. Concur in all respects. I got to talk about it with several people in the office today. It was big fun.
Ok - those little thumbnails are kinda small for the full version of all of ya, but we could put it up with all three of your names! I didn't mean to offend... They're just mugshot headshots for us to see what we all look like... we'll take ya off....
Howdy!

Hey there Mister Nad. :-)
That MO moot sounds like a fine thing.
Sigh...ever-buddy gets a moot except the good lookin' dwarf...even Stinky...
Have a good time bro.
Strangely enough, I liked the 2nd, 4th and 6th movements the best. The second movement started in Rivendell and went through Moria/Khaza Dum (really cool African-style beats that Howard Shore "danced" to while he conducted) to Lothlorien and then down the River to the breaking of the Fellowship. The movement was at least 45 minutes long -- as long or longer than any other 3 movements put together. It was really a symphony of 4 movements in itself.
The 4th movement was much shorter (of course) but it might have been my favorite. It was TTT's Hornburg, Forth Eorlingas, Isengard Unleashed and Gollum's Song. It had some of my favorites -- the "Appalachian" style Eorlingas with the sonorous fiddle, a return to the heavy percussion beats in Isengard and ending with a drop-dead gorgeous rendition of Gollum's Song by Sissel. It was short enough not to get tedious anywhere -- very compact and gave the feeling of one big hit after another.
The sixth movement was RotK, but started with a long section reprising a number of themes from throughout the rest of the soundtrack. Into the West and Grey Havens were the big highlight, with Sissel again just stunning on Into the West.
Howard Shore and the musicians got a 10 minute standing ovation at the end, he had to come out for bows three times.
If you don't get a chance to see it, be sure to buy the CD!
