Pax East Pump Up Routines? (TAKE 2)

My bad... I was unaware that link to my PAX related blog would fall under outside sources... but the main idea here was to know what other people were up to get themselves pumped:
I made an unboxing video, and I'll be doing a daily blog researching some of the panels, people, bands, companies that I'm not too familiar with to get pumped.
Basically I’m going to be looking into the panels, people, companies, bands that interest me and share my findings each day. In this way not only I, but also you, will get pumped for PAX (as if we weren’t already).
Is anyone else doing anything special to get pumped up for PAX? Omegathon training regimes? Re-reading the entire Penny-Arcade run so that you can ask obscure questions to Gabe and Tycho? Buying comfortable walking shoes? Unearthing your Game Boy Color in the hope that somehow you’ll find someone to get that final trade for Pokémon Cystal? I’ve seen some people are planning and making costumes, which is cool, but not my thing (and it also has its own thread).
If we all work together, we can help whip each other into a frothy mouthed frenzy of anticipation.
(I hope this fits forum standards!)

Any other bands playing that you're digging? I'm pretty familiar with Frontalot & Coulton... and gave Protomen and Anamanaguchi a good listen a few days back... next week Metroid Metal and Video Game Orchestra are going to find a place in my MP3 player... anyone listened to Paul and Storm? I know nothing about them.
And re: Mega64... like I mentioned... they just need to tweak their formula a little bit and I'd probably become a regular viewer.

I'll try to check out Paul and Storm this weekend.

If you've never listened to Paul and Storm before, you're in for a treat. I think they're damn funny.
Me too! I bought a pair of Vans style slip ons.
PRO TIP: Vans style slip ons are like slippers you're allowed to wear in public! I had a pair at FanExpo last year at it was amazing...also, if your feet don't smell, you can just slip them off when you're sitting on the floor for added comfort (again... that's a big if).

I could be misunderstanding you, but 'Get Lamp' is screening on Friday night, not Saturday. It's listed as 9:30 - 12:00 in Naga on the schedule...
"If I can't get into the concert, I'll be watching Get Lamp" otherwise... I may pick up the DVD when it becomes available because Jason Scott is basically thegeek-historian of the BBS era.

Man.. packing is hard.
Anyone else have special shirts or gear they're going to be sporting?
A friend of mine is gonne be wearing a sweet shirt that just says "Gamer" in the Sega font... another one has a "Rock is Dead, Long Live Paper and Scissors" shirt that gets a chuckle from the LARPing crowd...
