TalahRama Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 I was wondering if anybody has any information pertaining to a "Hip Tanaka For Governor" sticker I saw in downtown Boston recently. I saw it while walking around with my girlfriend and almost peed myself. I think it's probably from the same guy who made a little Mega Man on a light post. So, information? If you want a picture, I'll upload it to somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloGamer Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Google shows up this: http://www.stickerguy.com/custlist.phtml Looks like someone just ordered a custom bumper sticker from Sticker Guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalahRama Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share Posted December 30, 2007 Yeah, I already found that, I was just wondering if anyone had an idea as to who this most badass person is. If someone is posting awesome videogame related stuff around Boston, I'd like to know who this person is. And hug him/her. [EDIT] The minimum amount of stickers is 500 from that guy. That means 499 are still around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Joe Pleiman, most know around here as half of The Rabbit Joint (LoZ "Rabbit Joint Cover") and a member of The Black Lodge (Z64:OoT "Ocarina Boogie", since removed) was part of a band called Hip Tanaka, named after the composer and another side project of Pleiman's. The band even owned HipTanaka.com at one point, but the band/project died off. Nothing listed at archive.org works after the 2003 stuff. AFAIK, the band did originals despite their name, not game arrangements, just to clarify. Last but not least, they were based in the Boston area. With the contact info at the Rabbit Joint artist page here, you can contact Joe and (hopefully) ask him whatever you want about Hip Tanaka. Who knows, maybe he has some leftover stickers. They also have some material possibly still available from CD Baby. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djpretzel Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 For the record, were I in Massachusetts, I would have voted for the real Hip Tanaka. Also: Chicken Mob for President. That is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liontamer Posted December 30, 2007 Share Posted December 30, 2007 Oh wow, The Rabbit Joint cover did get removed. That makes sense considering it didn't use any music from in-game, but man that was an awesome track.I'm a little slow. Don't mind me. A lotta slow: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR00022/ You meant to say "Ocarina Boogie", but I forgive you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocarina Boogie might not have been an arrangement, but DAMN it was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
