re: App: rhryss

The application submitted by rhryss is as follows:

Quote:
BAND LEADERS: Apply on behalf of your band. Approval of your application DOES NOT guarantee a slot at Weatherstock. See Band Selection info below.

BAND MEMBERS: Apply here if you want to keep up on Weatherstock developments on this forum.

LMB EVENT STAFF AND OFFICERS: Identify what team you'd like to help with and to gain access the forums.

What is your role in Weatherstock?:
Band Leader

Band Leaders and Band Members: What band are you a member of?:
Department of Harmony and Song

Band Leaders: Have you performed in public as a band before? Does your band perform regularly? Have you performed at Weatherstock before? Please supply details here.:
Yes, but only twice so far. We plan to start playing a monthly concert on the 2nd (usually) Sunday of each month at 1 pm Server Time. (Our next show will be a week early to avoid the last minute chaos that the music system update scheduled for the 9th is sure to cause.) So our next concert will be on the 7th of June, Bree stage, 1 pm.

No, we only started the band around the first of this year so have not yet had that opportunity.

Weatherstock Band Application Section (only Band Leaders should fill this out):

Band Registration: Band Registration opens on Monday May 18th and closes on Sunday May 31st.

FYI: Each band will be paired with a "Roadie" from our Event Staff to ensure that all bands are ready for Weatherstock. Be sure to direct questions to your Roadie, and to answer questions promptly

Note: Weatherstock is a competition. Winners will be determined at the summit following the show. One prize will be awarded via an internet vote of all attendees, a second prize will be awarded via an internal vote of LMB members.

There will be no voting-with-feet and no voting-with-hope-tokens this year.

New this year: Band selection for the competition will occur *AFTER* all the Weatherstock Concert Series shows are completed. Only competing bands will play in the WCS, non-competing bands will have a separate show.

Weatherstock Concert Series: The Weatherstock Concert Series is a set of concerts put on during the weeks leading up to Weatherstock. These are 1-hour concerts and these slots will be given only to bands that apply for the competition.

New this year: Playing in the Weatherstock Concert Series *IS* required for the competition. This is an opportunity for bands to showcase their talents for the judges to select them.

Competition Band Selection: There are 10 slots for Weatherstock, to be chosen by weighted lottery. Each band gets 1 ticket for applying. Each LMB Officer may give 1 ticket to a band of their choice. The 10 bands are selected randomly from this pool.

ALL BANDS: You can apply either to compete at the summit on Sat. July 25th, or to participate in the non-competitive warm-up show on Fri. July 24th:
Compete: Sat July 25th

Competition Bands: Are you available to perform a 15-minute set anytime during Weatherstock on Saturday July 25th (tentatively 1:00pm-5:00pm /servertime EDT)? Slots will be assigned randomly, if you are selected.:
Yes

Competition Bands: Can you schedule a Weatherstock Concert Series performance on Landroval sometime between Friday June 12th and Sunday July 19th?:
Yes

Competition Bands: Please select possible times for your 1-hour Weatherstock Concert Series show (check ALL that apply).:
Sun Jul 12: Noon-6pm

Competition Bands: Please indiciate which of the above times would work BEST for you for your 1-hour Weatherstock Concert Series show.:
Sun. Jul 12, starting any time from noon to 3 pm (1pm is ideal)

Competition Bands: Do you have a preferred location for your Weatherstock Concert Series show? (low-level areas draw the biggest crowds).:
Any low level area is fine.

ALL BANDS: Fill out the following section!

Multi-boxing: While not prohibited, please be aware that lag can be severe at the summit during the competition, so use multi-boxing at your own risk! The show must go on.

Bands: how many musician characters are in your band? Note: we require a minimum of four members to be considered for the competition at the summit.:
5 to 8 (always at least 5)

Band Contact information:

Main Character on Landroval:
Zinnelle

Home Server:
Landroval

Main Character on home server:
Zinnelle

Bands: Please list a time/place/server that you regularly perform a show:
2nd Sundays, (1st Sunday in June), Bree Stage, 1 pm. Landroval

Introduce yourself or your band here.:
I'm Zinnelle. I don't really consider myself the band leader, that would be our main transcriber, Skjalden. I am, however, the band manager as well as one of the musicians and it falls to me to set up schedules and organize events for the band (and the kinship we belong to, the Department of Holbyt Security). Our kinship was born during the TTHTI and SHIELD livestream events led by former community manager, Sapience. We play all sorts of music with the exception of rap, country (mostly), and Swedish dance band music (whatever that is). Our band was born out of several members' love the music system and music in general. We've been having a blast so far and look forward to performing many more concerts for the citizens of Landroval.
