About the Band

Dallofin Bolderbrook,
better known as Daffin

Th’ Breakfast Club has appeared at two o' th’ Previous Weatherstock Festivals, 2011 and 2012. We play an impromptu concert in Bree every Saturday which can be anywhere from 45 minutes t’ a hour an a half long on our Home Server o’ Crickhollow, went t’ Gladden last Fall t’ play a concert as a prize fer CSTM’s Child’s Play Auction, an just recently came t’ Landroval t’ play a bit fer th’ Races . . .

We are called Th’ Breakfast Club on Landroval but our home is Crickhollow where we are known as Second Breakfast. Breakfast Club is a Band that originated with th’ Second Breakfast Kinship on Crickhollow, but which now counts as Band Members folks from 3 or 4 other Kinships as well. Th’ thing that binds us t’gether is th’ desire t’ play GOOD music fer th’ Free Peoples, an t’ add t’ th’ repertoire o’ music floatin around Arda as many new arrangements, interestin lyrics an yes, even original melodies as we can. Although we have several members that come up with new songs fer th’ Band t’ play, we ain’t above playin other folks’ tunes, so long as they are well-built an musically interestin. An we hope that others’ll find our contributions t’ be worth playin as well. Tho I’m sure this can be said ’bout any o’ th’ Bands that’ll be playin in Weatherstock (an many that won’t be as well), we’re all just terribly pleased that th’ Valar have given us th’ ability t’ make music in Arda, an we hope t’ use that ability help bring harmony, both literally an figuratively, t’ lands o’ Middle-earth.
