E308: Rock Band Bash in pictures

Late last night we had the privilege to attend the MTV Games and Harmonix Rock Band Bash at the Orpheum Theater in LA. With a secret performance no less. And after the making an eight block walk (maybe it was only three) from the Los Angeles Convention Center, we arrived ready to rock. During the pre-show festivities they had baskets of candy strewn about, an open bar and setup a stage for attendees to get their Rock Band 2 play on. Which we definitely had to try because it was a sold out audience you know. Finally, the icing on the Rock Band Bash cake was an hour plus long performance by non other than the secret performance guest: The Who. Oh yeah, it's okay to be jealous. View picture goodness below and even more over at Joystiq.

FFS!!

I think you need a UK blogger to attend these events, just to get a different perspective on things of course. ;o) Imagine the international appeal of this site then!!

I'd be doing you lot a favour really.

And yes, if you must know, I am free next year.

Awesome! The Who rocks!

I spotted Crecente from Kotaku in there! Image #10.

That guy's like spotting Waldo in a picture.

You should put some naming captions in there somewhere. Was thinking that when I spotted Crecente in there too, as well as Justin McElroy from Joystiq crooning for the crowd and one of the Rock Band developers on drums.

Looked like an awesome time...can't wait to play it with my friends.
