Get-together in Austin, Tx: June 28, 2008!

Wow was this totally worth the drive time!

Everyone was totally amazing...It makes everything better when everyone is as cool as you all were this weekend.

Paul, thanks again for putting up with our crap all day and night.

A few special shout outs here:
Hailz: You are totally hax on vocals. I doubt any other top vocalists can hit that much of a song while making any less noise

You kicked ass, I hope this helps ease up your shyness so you can be a loud jerk like the rest of us next time.

F4: Sure we caught you sleeping and streamed it on ustream, but at the last get-together I went to we took a pic of FrankieB sleeping with his hand in his pants Al Bundy style...so you at least have a 1-up on him.

Someguy: That drumset was so glorious I couldn't bring myself to play on it! I am totally going to start hanging out in your streams and requesting Thrasher/Silver. We should hang out and eat SH cake for breakfast more often

JW: I hope your arm doesn't fall off. I can't even begin to wrap my mind around how many notes you strummed in that 2 hours of playing Thrasher...My guitar better work after that hell you put it through...

Deschain: Your vast array of hacked gaming devices astounds me. Customs = win.

DK: Thanks again for driving me down there. Only having to drive half the trip myself made it so much more doable on my part.

I will update this post tomorrow with stories from this epic event, in the mean time here are a few teasers (guys remind me if I missed anything, or just post your own stories if I wasn't around at the time):

F4 sleeps a lot.
So a couple hours into the day everyone is randomly enjoying BQP on the big TV in the living room. We are laughing as JW as he hosted the stream via the mic plugged into the computer for sound. After a while JW notices that F4 is passed out in the dead center of the very loud room on the couch. So after several jokes were made at F4's expense JW finally gets the idea to show ustream how an epic GH player sleeps. So for the next hour or so we would randomly turn the webcam to watch him sleep. Moral of the story: Epic get-togethers are not exciting enough to keep an epic-level GH player awake and alert =P

I drop the F-bomb in front of someone's mother.

Fajitas time!

JW vs Trasher bass.

XBL PFO shenanigans.

I can haz kake 4 brakefazt?

Holy crap, this weekend was made of win covered in pure awesome sauce. I'm not gonna lie, this was the most fun I've had in months. We definitely need to have another get-together soon. You're definitely my kind of people and you get my obscure jokes.

By the way, JW, you got lucky. I looked at the Thrasher leaderboards and my score is 85k, so your scores never got submitted under my name.

Anyway, I'm gonna go FC some fajitas now.

Paul: Big thank you to you and your wife, I had an AWESOME time. It sucks that I had to leave so early but... Lubys. I was planning on coming back but by the time we found it and were done it was too late.

To whoever brought the customs on the computer: THANKS! Tamacun = win.

MOST AMAZING TRIP EVER! I had way too much fun when it got really late. I'm so glad I got to meet all of you. Even though it took like 4 hours to get there, it was all worth it. Sorry I sucked on those ranked PFOs. I'm not a ranked kind of guy. BUT! I think I made up for it by being on the mic. Thank you so much for giving up your house for a weekend of EPIC WIN. I was kind of let down by how Aerosmith looked though...Oh yeah and we bought GH:OT and brought it but I dont think anyone wanted to play. CAKE: The breakfast of SCOREHEROERS! MOAR SUG0R!
NevAr FORGET GOLD STAR SILVER! JUNE 28!

So........when's the next one?
