SingSterling: It Was Epic
njsykora | 11:07 PM on 10.18.2008 11 comments


Jim Sterling has just played Singstar for 12 hours straight. Unfortunately we were unable to raise enough money to keep him at the mic stand for the full 24 hours and get our Astley on.

However, that is what NARPs are for.

Some brave souls stuck with the live stream for the full 12 hours, this blog is here for anyone who helped out with the campaign or even just popped their heads in and watched. If you donated then thank you again, you helped everyone involved in this event. Except Jim Sterling of course, he goes to bed tonight with probably an extremely sore throat but a deep warm feeling inside, his pain has helped to ease the pain of others. As horribly cheesy as that sounds.

For those who missed it all, here's Jim Sterling performing Unchained Melody.



Also, Heretic would like me to make his presence felt as he was there for the whole 12 hours but for obvious reasons he can't sign the roll call.

Comments policy

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
