The Glasgow Thing
I’ve spoken here before in cagey mysterious ways about what brought me over to the UK to begin with that resulted in the London show. In case you missed it (because you don’t live in Scotland), it was for an appearance on Video Gaiden, a BBC Scotland show about gaming. Here is the entire special awards episode I was on. And if you grow weary of the brogue (and how could you? it’s awesome), here is just the part with me singing Still Alive after being introduce by a guy with a giant fake head. Will you check out the awesome Portal set they created? That cake is real…
Over There Again
The London show was such a success that I would very much like to make a return trip to the UK, possibly even other parts of Europe if it works out that way. I’m thinking this will be later this year, something like October/November. But I need your help planning this thing. I know how London is going to go, because I saw how it went, but where else shall I play? Where are you, audience? And don’t just leave a comment saying “Briglytonne!” or whatever crazy town you live in, we actually have a system for this:
This really works, it’s the only reason I had any confidence that London would be a well-attended show. So if you haven’t already, add your name to a demand in the place you’d like to see me play, and that will help me plan the trip.
Fly monkeys, fly!
Philly Merch Help
Yes! I forgot to set this up until just this instant! If there’s anybody (hopefully a pair of people) who would like to help me and Paul and Storm sell merchandise tomorrow night at the Philadelphia show, please email me. Comps will be yours for the taking…
Still Alive in Rock Band
This is not an April Fool’s thing: “Still Alive” for Rock Band is available today as an absolutely free download through Xbox Live. How’s that for cake?
In a related story, here’s an interview I did with Heather Wilson at Harmonix, the makers of Rock Band.
Also, just wanted to let you know, I’m quitting music because I just got a great job writing software.
