I have the rest of my videos YouTube'd:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5WmTdLKtBE: Geoffrey Taucer explaining how he finally found the Nice Work Guy. :nicework:!

: Escariot performing One-Winged Angel at the Cafe Cup'a piano.

"IS THAT MARTIN LEUNG??"

: OMG, WTF, BBQ. Pretzel and DJSammyG play with fire.

Still going through my photos and solving problems (boy is iPhoto a memory hog!). Hope to be done tonight.

Edit: Woops, missing "h" there.

I second that. Jamming with Brandon was a blast! Glad someone thought to capture at least a portion of it. 8)

Sorry, I would have gotten more, but my girlfriend was upstairs, and I actually took a business call at Dave's... So it was kinda hectic, plus I was doing car moving and such. I would have loved to get more. I even replaced my batteries as you were setting up and such... Jimmy, you have an awesome voice, dude. As Dave said "Where are your vocal remixes, huh?"

Ya seriously. :(

When Jimmy puts out a vocal mix, I'll throw down on a beatbox mix.

Owing to the Tommy Tallarico hype and the fact that DJSammy put on the EWJ CD he won while driving us back to DC, I opened up Earthworm Jim as soon as I got home. And then he got injured, uttering "Ow!" in that thick southern drawl of his.

And then I remembered BGC's voice.

Hell yeah.

What version?

I recommend either the PC or Sega CD version, the so-called "special editions," as they have extra voices and better music--and 1.5 bonus levels.

The killer guitar solo in "Buttville, pt. 1" alone is worth it. 8-)

Aviod the GBA port if you can help it...

Now, in other news, I finally have my VGL photos in my Flickr account You can find the whole set here.

The first 3 highlights:

Also in the cosplay section, the person you labelled as Cloud is actually Chrono.
Are you sure? "Crono" from Chrono Trigger?

I don't know exactly who this is, but she was in the top 10 cosplayers that got to go onstage before the show. I remember hearing her character's name as "Cloud" from some RPG that I've never played... ;-)

Also, I'm trying to add the name corrections to my post above but since the mods consolidated my multiple posts into one, it's hitting me with that 4-image limit. Can one of the mods do it for me please? :350:

Hmm, did some research here.

Definitely not Cloud from Final Fantasy VII. Maybe there's another Cloud in another game?

Not exactly Crono either; he doesn't have a bandana.

Then again, not exactly Serge, the equivalent to Crono in Chrono Cross, since Serge has a swallow instead of a sword.

So maybe it is some other Cloud, or maybe it's an (accidental?) Serge/Crono combination that got announced wrong.

The concert was awesome, but I more enjoyed the company. The meetup was amazing, and I posted my videos on YouTube... Pictures are being uploaded, and resizing will be done soon, I suppose

Agreed. OCR has some extremely chill cats amongst the community, not to mention some powerful talent (Harmony, BGC, bustatunez, etc..)

BTW, djp might downplay it, but I thought the OCR used as background at the concert was well-placed and well-received. Good stuff.

S/he made it onto the stage as a top 10...

The Hero was a she and yes... she did make it into the top 10 because I am a sucker for Dragon Warrior/Quest cosplayers.

I was actually hoping to deny more Sora's and Roxas's then I did.

Have to say, the concert was pretty sweet experience. Although I do wish the set varied a bit more from what I saw in Philly, it was awesome to hear those songs performed live all over again. The Medal of Honor theme really got to me, both times, especially considering how well the footage reflected & amplified the music. Also, walking into the hall just prior to the show and realizing that hundreds of people are listening to Overclocked Remixes blaring over the loudspeakers! That was just so cool, despite knowing it was gonna happen. I can only imagine how Dave must've been feeling. :)

And thanks to Sammy winning the costume contest (judged by two of our own group), we have a new meme to spread around OCR. Groove bias is just so passé now that we have Tetris bias! ;)

Best part of the meetup had to be exposing my wonderful ultimate frisbee skillz to all. Just look at that disc glide so gracefully... for half a foot before wobbling to the ground a yard away. <.< Oh yeah, awesome talent! >.> Especially memorable when the two *cough* "best" players on the field fumbled around with the frisbee (and nearly into each other) for a few crazy seconds. Ah, fun times.

But in all respectful seriousness, Bustatunez, you are one musically gifted piano-jammin' badass. Being at the cafe was like a mini-concert in and of itself. :D
