Billy Boyd’s alt-rock outfit Beecake headlined The One Expected Party the other night in Los Angeles. Boyd, performing with bandmates Billy (BJ) Johnston, Paul Burke, Rick Martin and David McAulay, entertained hundreds with a delightful set of rock and revelry. As well as performing songs such as Soul Swimming and Radio, the band was joined on stage by our own staffer greendragon, and Dominic Monaghan — who pulled no punches in exhorting the crowd to get up and dance.

Whew! After a party like that we all needed a couple of days’ rest! Fresh after their stunning performance at our special Hobbit Oscar night, THE ONE EXPECTED PARTY, the magical musical darlings known as Beecake will join us *live* on our chat show TORn TUESDAY in just a few minutes! We are very glad to have Billy Boyd, Billy Johnston, Paul Burke, and Rick Martin join us at the Meltdown Comics Vault, from where we broadcast our live streaming video show every Tuesday at 5pm Pacific Time. Hosted by your congenial M.C. and TORn Staffer Clifford ‘Quickbeam’ Broadway, you can participate with the live chat by coming into our Barliman’s Chat Room that is built-in to our Live Event Page here. Bring your questions and your mischeif! THE SHOW IS ABOUT TO BEGIN! You can follow the exploits of Billy and Beecake on Twitter @OfficialBeecake and follow Cliff @Quickbeam2000
So you’re in LA for The One Expected Party; you’re going to An Unexpected Art Show on Friday night; you’re spending Saturday afternoon at the pub with fellow fans, old friends and new; but come Saturday night, on ‘Oscars Eve’, you still want to party. Where are you going to go?
The answer is simple – warm up for Sunday’s party by going to see Beecake play at The Hotel Cafe! Billy Boyd and his band mates will be on stage at 11pm at the venue in Hollywood; details can be found, and tickets can be purchased, here. (Please note this event is 21+)
Then grab a few hours sleep before the big event on Sunday afternoon! See you there!
Some of the Middle-earth clothing from Black Milk has made a splash on our Facebook page but with fashion and popular culture taking center stage this week leading up to our own One Expected Party on Oscar night, it seemed a good time to share it here. Will we see a Doorway party dress? How about Witch King leggings? While we kind of want to chastise the company for not hyphenating and not making the e lower case in Middle-earth, its pretty cool to see a company take geek culture in mainstream directions. Its R2-D2 dress is well-known on websites like Tumblr, Twitter and Pinterest. The Australian company gets our kudos for making geek, chic. In the meantime, if you want to or plan to be in the Los Angeles area this weekend and want to join us for the party, we would love to have you, even if you aren’t wearing all the names of the dwarves on your leggings. Tickets remain and with food and entertainment like One Man LOTR and Billy Boyd’s Beekcake on the musical menu, and Hobbit Oscar nominations for visual effects, hair and makeup and production design, it will be a night of legend.
It has been a very long while since both Merry & Pippin were back together causing mischief! TheOneRing.net is quite thrilled to host our *EXCLUSIVE* live webcast featuring our very own Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan on a special edition of TORn TUESDAYS (at a special earlier time)! Join host Clifford Quickbeam Broadway as we broadcast live from Meltdown Comics in the heart of Hollywood, at 1:00pm Pacific Time on Tuesday afternoon, not the usual 5pm! Dom will be talking about the launch of his new series on BBC America: WILD THINGS WITH DOMINIC MONAGHAN and Billy will bring the musical goods as his band BEECAKE have just launched a wonderful new album, Blue Sky Paradise (available on iTunes Store)…. You will see Beecake perform *live* at our huge Oscar Event on February 24th: The One Expected Party!
The two young hobbits have expanded their careers to great heights, and here is your chance to catch up with them both! You can bring your questions and join the built-in chat here on our Live Event Page, or turn on your camera and join on Stickam here.
REMEMBER: We begin the show at 1:00pm Pacific Time! Check here for round-the-world times for the start of TORn TUESDAY.
