Harry and the Potters 500th show
If you haven't seen Harry and the Potters, here's a good introduction. Two brothers -- Paul and Joe DeGeorge -- who are the sweetest guys you'll ever meet. And they can rock. Here's them playing their 500th show in their own hometown of Norwood, Massachusetts. As their website puts it: "mere blocks from our boyhood home, in the very elementary school that we attended so long ago, in the same cafetorium where Paul sang the “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” theme song in the 5th grade musical and where Joe witnessed Ellen Greely throw up through her recorder (@vomitwords) during the 3rd grade recital."
I profile them in my book (chapter 9, in fact).
Lyrics to "Dumbledore"
You were the best we ever had
You were the best we ever had (you were the best)
I wish that we could go down to the Room of Requirement
And we could go bowling just like you used to
Back when Hogwarts Bowling Club was cool
You were the best we ever had
You were the best we ever had (you were the best)
Dumbledore
We're here with you tonight
We'll carry on the fight
Everything will be alright
And everyone is fine
You were the best we ever had (you were the best)
I wish we could have shared more together
But now you're off on your next adventure
Dumbledore
We'll fight for you tonight
Dumbledore
We all fight for you tonight
In our hearts we'll never let you die
Your love is keeping us alive
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
We'll carry on 'cause there's nothing to fear
Dumbledore
We'll fight for you tonight
Dumbledore
We all fight for you tonight
In our hearts we'll never let you die
Your love is keeping us alive
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
You'll never be gone as long as we're here
We'll carry on 'cause there's nothing to fear
Dumbledore
We'll fight for you tonight
Dumbledore
We all fight for you tonight
In our hearts we'll never let you die
Your love is keeping us alive
Dumbledore
We'll fight for you tonight

A blog begins
And lo, and the creator spoke, and there was a blog. And it was good.
Or we hope so.
Welcome to the "Ethan Freak" blog. Where I'll try to keep tabs on some of the fantasy and gaming activity out there. Whether it's D&D, other games, Dragon*Con and other cons, Tolkien and Lord of the Rings rumors, Harry Potter fandom, or why this d20 (above) is so worn down (have I been rolling it THAT much lately?), our interest and reach is wide, wolfish and wistful. Here goes...
