Cloves' Diary - Twenty-fifth of Wedmath

Oh, what I am tired tonight! Firefern's been learning the drums and keeping the whole neighbourhood including me awake with them. I do believe I fell asleep for a moment on the Thorin's Hall inn-table before! But I am looking forward to playing with percussion in the band - there doesn't seem to be another band around that can get percussion right. Also, being the location scout I'm excluded from carrying the heavy things around... We were practising some new songs for the inn tonight, but just as we were going to play, Glamua felt poorly. So Firefern came up with some trio pieces instead. In the end, we played: What shall we Do with a Drunken Dwarf-lad? Under a Violet Moon A Brigand's Life for Me -break- The Wrong Band The Flying Tree Encore: Drunken Dwarf-lad, again There was a short break, in which Silkweed led a hide-and-seek game in the Halls! There were pies for the finder, a young Hobbit named Arrina, and also for the volunteer hider, a dwarf named Woili. Later there was a story about a weird half-elf half-goblin race called the "cave elves". I'm not quite sure I believe it but it made for some laughs! Master Vunar was also not present tonight. I really hope he's not sick again as well! There seems to be a bug going around. I hope poor Glamua will be all right!
