About Me
Primarily a lurker here on DToid. In real life I'm a software engineer at a startup in San Francisco. I try to keep up with my games and anime, but I'm out of the house so much any more that it's pretty difficult. I love getting out and meeting new people, hanging out, and party games like Rock Band, BlazBlue and Borderlands (which is pretty much the ultimate party game).

Hope we hang out soon!

Umloud! A Child's Play Charity Event

UPDATE: The media's starting to roll in.

YouTube of Ironheads performance

Another YT for Ironheads

EDIT: Didn't quite realize this would appear on the general message boards. Sorry, it's my first day blogging here. :) The pictures came from the Umloud! event listed here. Basically, people make a donation to Child's Play and get to go up on stage at San Francisco's amazing DNA Lounge and play Rock Band for a crowd of adoring fans. There was also absinthe, giveaways in exchange for donations (I got R-type Final) and door prizes (didn't win any raffles).

I showed up unannounced and at the last minute, but managed to get a few pictures. This post is mostly to make those pictures available to tactix so he can do a full-blown recap whenever he has time.

ORIGINAL:

As soon as my friend Gabe posts the video I took of his band Ironhead (yes, they were all cosplaying Brutal Legend), I'll post a link to that, too. Epic was the only way to describe how awesome this was.
