Did you miss us? We missed you. The fates prevented us from doing Jamspace at PAX Prime 2012, but the losers from MAGFest are back to bring PAX East attendees the Jamspace once again.
What in the ever loving shit is "Jamspace"?
Jamspace is music all day every day during pax. We've got chiptunes, live video game cover bands, DJs, and even open jam time with provided instruments. We've got guitar, bass, drums, and keyboard for play, or you can even bring your own instruments! Follow @MAGFest on twitter for updates of what's going on all weekend.
When the hell are you doing this?
Our schedule is:
Friday
11:30am-2:30pm: Chiptunes 3pm - 5pm: Video game cover bands 6pm-11pm: Open Jam time (play our instruments, or bring your own!)
11pm-12am: Super dance party fun time featuring Dj CUTMAN
Saturday
11:30am-2:30pm: Chiptunes
- Danimal Cannon
- Cheap Dinosaurs
- Active Knowledge
- Doomcloud
- RobotSexMusic
- Sam Mulligan
- ...and special guests TBA!
11pm-12am: Super dance party fun time featuring Dj CUTMAN
Sunday
Open-1pm: Maybe open depending on how hungover we are
1pm - 2pm: Bands/Chiptunes 3pm-close: Open Jam time (play our instruments, or bring your own!)
Where do I sign up for this bitch?
Scheduled performances are already pre-booked, but if you want to play during open jam time, just roll right up and sign in! We typically group people together so that all instruments are covered, but we'll let you go up as a solo act if it's not too incredibly busy. Do you play an instrument and know some songs? Let everyone know by posting in this thread!
Who the fuck is MAGFest?
We're a non-profit organization dedicated to the appreciation of games and video game music. We hold events all over the country, including our flagship event, the Music And Gaming Festival, which takes place every winter in the DC area.

Sorry about all the questions, a friend and I want to play some music, we're wondering what we should bring. It's guitar and drums plus a gameboy handling bass/synth parts.
can't only going on friday unless they accept me as an enforcer

Or, at least a few. We have recordings of almost every group listed, we just haven't edited them together yet.

Can't say for sure, but I'd assume at least an sm58 or two. We did have open jam last time, just not a lot of it, and our schedule wasn't very well publicized. Hopefully having the schedule pre-published this year can help that.
Ditto! I started listening to him last month, and he's got some talent! The Beat Goes On is great.

There will be a lot of additional chippy things taking place throughout the weekend as well, best bet to stay posted is to probably connect with the BOSTON8BIT Facebook and Twitter pages and keep an eye out for updates while you're onsite.
Big shoutout to the MAG folks for working with us to make this happen each year! :-D
Artists did last year, so I'd assume so.

Those guys are awesome, though after I spoke with Soultron it seems like he may have to fly it solo this time. I hope he doesn't, but either way, I will now definitely be stopping in Friday morning (typically chiptunes ain't my thing, but I like their mix).

If you bring your practice amp, we can always mic it, or just put you directly into the PA
Yeah there will be tables for the musicans
More equipment is always welcome, but it sounds like a lot to haul, and we can't guarantee the safety of your stuff.
