Post Grammys Rock Blog!

[hmxsean]

I promised I would spill some of the beans regarding my time out at the Grammys last week with John D. I wrote a blog post about it, but only got through Day 1 of my experiences (John and I were in different parts of LA at pretty much all times). There are days worth more of material from each of us. We should probably just publish a book. At any rate check out part one now. If you have an Xbox360, Trixie from Microsoft filmed a piece about stars playing Rock Band that you can watch on your console via the Inside Xbox section of the main menu on the blade that has your profile. It is like right under the profile and a few slots in. John and I are all up in it. We're also in the Grammy Gifting Suite #2 at this site.

Also take a read through Duderella's recap of pre-work (8-9:30am) films on TCM. It is wicked funny. Lastly I also put up links to some of the blogs on the main site including a really good one about how music gets into our game.

I'm out at GDC starting next week and will probably have some fun stories after that (I have some fun stuff planned) as well as a few more good trips after that so I think a steady stream of blogs are forthcoming. I'll also try to strongarm a few other devs back into writing up regular blogs.

I feel like I had something else I needed to say to but it has slipped my mind. Whatever. I'll get it back again!

The blogs were awesome. Also that video posted on livevideo.com was so hilarious! Keep up the good work.

I don't. It didn't really come together as it was supposed. Ultimately I ended up playing people during those times. Taylor Hawkins came and played the game but it was much later that night in another location. T-Pain also came and played but was only online for, like, a second. Which is a shame because he is a hell of a drummer.

Woohoo! Nice. Was missing pizza and Rock Band on Friday worth it, considering you get to hang out with all those stars?

Since I was here orchestrating the "Pizza and RockBand" event - HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT HE MISSED.

I'm going to go weep now.

That was a custom vinyl job done by the Microsoft crew. It was pretty amazing actually. whoever they got was on his pimp.


As for missing pizza and beer - yes it hurt... I love free food and drink.
