…and he does it again.
By “he” I mean Halcylon, and by “it” I mean creates awesomeness in PhotoShop. Here is his latest creation:

To get things started on our glorious trip to Seattle/Kirkland for PAX, we flew in two days early to get a feel for the area (and because tickets were $100 cheaper .) When SickNdehed told me that we had a layover in LA, I wasn’t too thrilled.

Well, something interesting came out of our stop in LAX. While we were traveling down that conveyor belt for people with heavy bags we saw a couple familiar faces walking the other direction in the center aisle. Sick and I glanced at each other and I asked, “Is that…?” She cut me off by nodding her head and said “Yes, that was the RvB guys!” So… they actually ended up being on our flight to Seattle and we got a chance to ask them for a picture with us.

Our next point of interest on this day was a nice visit to the wonderful Bungie Studios. We happen to come say “Hi” not too long after the building was swarmed by “Kirkland’s finest.” It seems they spooked a local when carrying their well known (to the Halo fans anyway) Sniper Rifle from one building to the other. You can check their past Weekly Update for more details.

After sticking our noses through the door SickNdehed and I were surprised to meet Stephen Totilo of Kotaku (who actually flew down to cover our wedding.) After seeing him finish up, we got to poke around the studio lobby for a few. We snapped some pretty pics with some trophies, memorabilia, and even got a few friendlies to come out of their cave to meet us.

I’d say we started our trip off with a -BLAM!- This day is well set in our memories.

Well this wraps up our first story surrounding our PAX visit. Be sure to keep an eye out, there’s much more to come.

It was a long day filled sweat and excitement. Psycho and I spent the day at the Earth Day Birthday concert we won tickets to back in February. It’s been years since I’d been to any all day event. I couldn’t believe how many women were walking around topless with nothing more than body paint to cover themselves. One woman had Sponge Bob painted on her, her boobs were his eyes. Unfortunately we didn’t get a picture of that. Though we were able to get a picture of a woman with a penis painted on her (you’ll have to search our flickr pics for that one.)

Part of our prize was a ‘Meet N Greet’ with a few of the bands. I was thankful the ‘Meet N Greet’ took place in one of the more cooler parts of the Venue. While there, we got the chance to shake hands with and take pictures with Static-X, Chevelle and Candlebox.

One of the bigger highlights of our day was getting the chance to announce Chevelle on stage. It was a new experience looking into the crowd over the heads of so many people. I was actually a lot more nervous about being on stage the night before.

All in all it was a fun night and a great event. Perhaps you’ll even see us at Earth Day Birthday again next year. Hopefully I’ll remember to wear more comfortable shoes.
