This is Wily from the NESkimos; I couldn't resist coming in here and throwing out a gigantic thank you to everyone at PAX--yes, every single person. Khoo, Brizzle the Stage Manager, Gabe and Tycho, thanks for having us and having the zanshin to manifest the big bold event that is PAX. Everyone who attended the event; thanks for being there and each being so awesome. It's truly a marvel to be surrounded by hordes of smart people, isn't it?
Mostly, thanks to everyone who rocked out with us on Friday. Being able to be with you all at PAX really has made everything worth it. Believe it or not, it's not the easiest thing in the world to find audiences here in the South who give two craps about video game music, so the chance to be a part of what is very much the epicenter of VG enthusiasm is, well, simply amazing.
Additionally, hanging out with our man Dave and his crew, as well as the fine crewmen of Sealab (commanded by Spook and Moe Fwacky), was of course stupendous, and I just have to say that it's amazing how much it feels like we have actually become friends even though we've hung out for only 2 weekends in as many years.
Can't wait for next year.
Smooches,
Wily

Was great to see you guys play, the new SMB3 tracks were fantastic. I was going to pick up some swag, but couldn't find your table, so my old Neskimos (fighting a bunch of ninjas and winning) t-shirt will have to do for now.
Good show, great way to end the night. A shame the crowd wasn't a bit more active, but for most people you're looking at a long drive or flight, followed by waiting in alot of lines, and then an entire day of gaming, so by about 1 A.M. most people are basically shot. Hope to see you guys again next year!
On a slightly related note, I desperately hope someone tries to shoot your new guitarist. Nothing personal, I just desperately want to see a small news story "Man tries to shoot Dog from Duck Hunt. Fails."
The concerts get better every year, and they're mainly what keeps me flying up every time. You guys have some serious fucking talent.
Thanks for the awesome show.
I was actually blown away by the crowd; despite how exhausted everyone was (us included) it was the best response we've ever had. Mucho gratitudo.
Come again next year, I'll bribe some cute girls to spread themselves around the crowd and loudly discuss how they hate people who stand still at concerts.
A second thanks for letting me into your room party Friday night, that was good times. Amstel for the win!
Thanks for being awesome.
Dude with Lightsabers PAX 06 and 07.

...ON STAGE.
At the second concert there were like 5.
Thanks, we do what we can, and next year we hope to make the Sealab party twice as big and three times as annoying to the surrounding non-PAX rooms. For those of you who haven't heard, our party drove somebody in the Hilton (either across the hall or next door, not sure which) to seek a refund from the hotel and check out in the middle of the night. That'll teach them to host a music box society convention the same weekend of PAX, muahahaha. You guys rocked the house down and we're glad you were there with us to make our last year in Bellevue monumental.
PAX or die
ALL HAIL THE BALL
You should totally get that tattoo'd on your back.
With a tiny PAX'06 in the bottom right corner, so you never forget where it all began.
The party was really fun, even though Echo got kinda creeped out by all the guys hitting on her. Much thanks to you and Spook for the party management. It was really fun to hang out with the Neskimos and Frontalot, and NOT get thrown out this year. (last year there was a slapping incident that got several rooms evacuated)
as long as they remembered to retrieve it from the mic stand, where it was left after the gig.
For the first time in history: buy a band's ex-drummer! (autographed for an additional 5-spot)
I was in pretty rough shape at PAX, pain-wise (goddamn arthritis), and didn't really have much energy for parties.. aah well ..maybe next year
They cast a shadow like a sundial in the morning light. It was half past 10.
You'd better!
I need some better medication and a hip replacement or two. I'll do my best
