Those Ringers that will be in the LA-area this weekend and still have a hole in their schedule on Saturdaynight: here’s what Q-Beam from the highly entertaining hip hop crew The Lord of the Rhymes wrote in to tell us:

For anyone traveling to LA from out of town or just looking for a way to get psyched up for Sunday’s Return of the One Party, come join fellow Tolkien lovers this Saturday night at The Echo in Echo Park.

The Lords of the Rhymes will be performing their first ever west coast show for all those who are not able to attend the Sunday night extravaganza hosted by TheOneRing.net. The evening begins at 8pm and features a DJ set by LA’s own DJ Gothmog the Troublemaker (from the Hollyrock Crew of Angband), live video projections of Bakshi’s LOTR animation and scenes from the Lords’ own behind-the-music mocumentary, as well as a coronation of the King of Orange County, Gondor, a gollum ring toss game, a special guest appearance by the Witchking of Angmar, the Grey Pilgrim on the turntables and of course a set by the Lords of the Rhymes.

Following the Return of the One Party, the Lords will head up to San Francisco for a Monday night show.
