Community Events: March 4th-10th

This week’s featured event:

This Saturday four great bands will face off in a battle to determine which one can play the cheesiest music.  Join them at the Thorin’s Hall Festival Arena 4pm EST (9pm GMT) on Laurelin for the Great Schnulz’athlon, two hours of tacky tunes and schmaltzy songs from Die Mondbarden, Instant Play, A Rock and a Hard Place, and members of a fourth band that’s far too dignified for this sort of thing (but still could not help but take part).
