I'm just now returning to the land of the living after a long, NARP-induced hibernation. I remember arriving, loading up a WiiMote candy despenser with Smarties, and setting up the PA. From there, its hot-sauce-soaked blur of wings, Amber Bock and people in GTA shirts partying like it was 1999 (it may have been!).
I had a blast playing, and huge thanks to everyone who hung outside and gave a listen. GuitarAtomik absolutely tore shit up (well done man!). The Call of Duty tourney and Rock Band marathons were both suitably epic. Joe, Ninoog, and Ron got this thing up off the ground in style. I was very impressed with how it all came together.
I wish I'd been around Friday night so I could have gotten to know some of you a little better, but it was awesome putting faces to names and meeting you all! Next time (and it seems clear there will be an epic NEXT TIME) I'll be sure to hang out at whatever hotel/brothel/bakery/baby-food-factory the crew is at for the duration.
I spent about 20 minutes snapping pics at the end of the night (beginning of "round 2" of the night ;-) ) but they pretty much didn't come out (Britini put up a flickr site, to which I posted the handful that are almost passable). Except the one below. That one is awesome (see Steamy, I told you that one out of every hundred would be cool! I think I said that, anyway. Maybe I said something else entirely. Something offensive and troubling. But I'm pretty sure I said the first thing!!)

Though I look really really dumb in all the photos (er more so).
@BigPopa - I've seriously considered learning free bird and then ACTUALLY PLAYING IT when people ask. You know? If you're gonna ask for it, you're gonna have to listen to it.
Then I realized that that song is like 48 minutes long, and I don't wanna play it.
Smart choice. I once attempted the same thing. But really the long parts all are all the solos which, if you are a one-man band, you can't do anyways.
