Filtering the Fellowship Festival reports
Still going through the Festival reports, so I hope to have some Daniel-related things to post soon. Until then, I'll share a poem I came across by Thomas Robins who played Deagol in the Lord of the Rings. A fan asked him for a copy to share with LoTR fans on messageboards she frequented and he shared an autographed copy!

Tuesday, August 30, 2005 Thomas Robins Fan Poem - Xoanon @ 21:52 PSTBonnie writes:
At The Fellowship Feast on Sunday evening during this past weekend's Fellowship Festival 2005 in Wembley, UK, Thomas Robins recited the following poem he wrote for the fans. My friends, "Indis and Elentari", and I asked if we could have a copy of it to post at the Decipher LOTR fan club and The LOTR Fan Messageboards. The next day we were thrilled to receive autographed copies of the poem that Mr. Robins had written out from his notes for us. I thought you might like to post it here as well so more people could read it.
MY WEEKEND OF MADNESS
by Thomas Robins
Let me tell you a story, I swear that is true
of my weekend of madness, and my face turning blue
no, not from the wine or the scotch or the beer
or from bad singing kiwis on the stage right up here
no, the face turning blue was from a film I was in.
I was dragged under water with a ridiculous grin
I came over here thanks to my role of young Deagol
and my tragic death by that bastard called Smeagol.
I was flown on a plane to the bright lights of London
To party with Rings Fans, they're like crazy or something!
And their costumes I tell you they will just blow your mind
Such a great bunch of people you'll just never find
Anywhere on earth, except at this lovely show,
That's the Fellowship Festival, in case you don't know.
On Tuesday I'll be off, back to my home and to sleep
Back to my little hobbits and where our dollar is cheap!
So on behalf of your guests, I think I can say
That we all had such a wonderful magnificent stay
Because we all know that without you mad lot
We'd never have it as good as we've got.
So thanks for the weekend, we all had such fun
Ring fans are crazy, and we love you all, each one!
