Would love to make it for this, but not sure I can. I won't make the VGO show, but perhaps for dinner beforehand. Waterborn, you can put me down as a "maybe" for that if you'd like. I'm completely flexible on location/choice.

Duly noted and added sir. Hope you can join us.

I am working on editing my interview with Shota Nakama tonight and hope to have it posted shortly. Not sure what the protocol for getting the link to interested parties. Don't want to come across as spamming an outside site. Maybe I can put it up on Dropbox as well.

I just posted the interview that I did yesterday with Shota Nakama of the VGO. As the interview was done in a restaurant, there is quite a bit of background noise, but hopefully you will enjoy my talk with Shota nonetheless. The link below is to a direct Dropbox link and not another web site out of respect for the folks here at PA. Let me know what you guys think. I look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday.

Thanks for posting! Looking forward to seeing VGO. I saw Video Games Live at the Wang theater a year ago, and they mentioned VGO during the show.

I am planning to meet up with the group at 5, unless something unexpected comes up. Should we meet at the bottom of the stairs/escalators that are just outside the entrance to Cheesecake Factory? It's a nice wide open space. I'll be wearing a pink and white cupcake scarf.

Incidentally... walked by this building today during lunch and it seemed relevant:

5pm at CCF on Saturday sounds excellent. I'll be probably in front of the escalator.

Me: likely the guy with the longest hair, looking like I need a few drinks. See you all then!

Hrm, we'll see as I have fairly long hair as well

Waterborn

At the base of the escalators it is. Unlike Blah and Luca, I will be the guy with absolutely not hair! Looking forward to seeing everyone and checking out the concert. Should be good.

Oh, and if you are planning to join us for the concert, it is probably a good idea to pick up tickets today and not wait to get them at the door. Shota mentioned that they anticipate having a sold out show.

Waterborn

Getting ready to head out right now. See you all there.

I am running a few minutes late, but am heading out the door now!

Hi! It was so great meeting everyone tonight, and the VGO concert was AMAZING. Better than I can even describe. I will definitely be at their next concert.

Hope to see you guys again - definitely at PAX!

Hey Elektra, great to meet you and everyone else tonight as well. The concert was definitely incredible and the company just as good. Looking forward to a January meet-up. so who is running the show for the next one?

Great to see h.e.e.l.s. back in Boston as well. March cannot arrive soon enough?

lucazzo

It was great meeting the lot of you this evening!

The concert was *amazing*. So much that I went home and popped in the Video Games Live recording. I needed my "Myst" fix, so to speak (huge Jack Wall fan).

Next round in January, sign me up for it.

I'm really bummed I couldn't make it to dinner - I was too exhausted to deal with biking out in that nasty weather. Looking forward to the January meetup!

Like a dumbass, I almost completely forgot to take pics during the meet-up. But here are a few.



That's my girl Michelle on the left. Guess who the PA folks are in the pic.



VGO warm-up.

Completely missed out on getting a shot of h.e.e.l.s. during dinner at the CCF. Someone else will have to take on the role of photog for the next meet-up. :?
