Paul and Storm perform the “Pirate’s Wife’s Lament” at PAX Prime 2010 with Wil Wheaton. Also, Jason Finn from President of the United States of America was on drums!
Also note the special appearance of John Roderick as the Herald of Wil Wheaton!
Paul and Storm perform their theme song and “Opening Band” at PAX Prime 2010. My wife, @rebeccagoings was the one who threw the Hello Kitty panties!
MC Frontalot at PAX Prime singing Diseases of Yore with Paul and Storm and JoCo with a Double Rainbow finish! It was amazing to watch in person, but the HD Video came out pretty good, no?
I’ve spent the past few weeks working on a complete home theater remodel. The room was basically gutted and everything put in anew. I think the results came out great!
This pic shows the new door between the theater and the game room (also being remodeled a bit). You can also see the floor and crown molding that hides all of the wires. In the corner is a floor-to-ceiling bass trap that I made out of 1×4 lumber, insulation, chicken wire, and fabric. The lights on the front speakers are connect to a remote control switch. The center console will eventually be replaced with something nicer. For now, it holds the center speaker and the remote/game controller chargers.
You can see the riser here along with rope lighting. These lights are on a remote control as well. The side TV-trays will be replaced with end tables as soon as we find some we like. You can also see the other bass trap in the corner.
You can see the new media wall in this pic. The very left is the server cabinet that houses all of my gear. You can see the new door that goes in between the kids play room and the theater as well. Hanging a 36″ door was fairly difficult, but worth it! The media shelves are lit with remote-dimmable track lighting.
Here’s a view of the front row and riser.
There’s still some work to be done though. I want to get new end tables, a sectional sofa for the riser, mic and guitar stands (for rock band), and posters and lighting along the back wall. I might add more bass traps as well, but the sound is pretty tight right now so I may not.
If you’re curious, here’s my equipment list:
I was watching the JoCo videos from his PAX performances this morning and it reminded me of Molly Lewis, a great ukulele player he had on stage with him. A quick Googling directed me to her website where I discovered she had a video log series called “Vlogging Molly”. Awesome!
So I watched this video:
In the video, she answers some questions (from fans presumably). One of the questions is “John McCain or Barack Obama?” She answers with some cheesy, but funny, songs that clearly indicate her preference for Barack. I agree Molly. Now, here’s where things get real. I scroll through her comments and notice that three people, accounting for 100% of the comments on that page, uniquely misspelled Barack Obama’s name.
How hard is it to know how to spell the President of the United States name? Further, how hard is it to google how to spell his name if you aren’t sure. Sigh.
Anyhow, despite the fact that her fans are lazy and can’t spell, Molly’s a great musician and pretty funny vlogger. Check her out.
