I've uploaded a couple video's from The Protomen's performance during PAX East. More will be uploaded as we near the release of the DVD set. And I hope you're all as excited as we are to see them at PAX Prime in a few weeks.

Here's their performance of The Hounds.

And their performance of Breaking Out.

I just want to update everybody on what's going on with the PAX East Community DVD Set. I won't go into detail, but there have been... issues. We're still working on it, and it's coming along, but I'm sorry to say don't expect it to be available before PAX Prime. And it pains me to say that. We're at the point now where we need to get everything straightened out for Prime, and it's more work than one might think.

On a higher note, we have added a few more people to our staff, to film with us during PAX and to help with more professional post production work. Hopefully this will lighten the work load a bit and put us in a much better situation for the future so we don't have to worry about being in the situation we're in now anymore.

If we don't have this done by Prime, it will still remain our top priority. But we're going to try and get it out as soon as possible because we're going to have a lot more work for the Prime set. We had 3 people filming for PAX09 and 3 people filming for PAX East. For Prime10, we will have 7 people, so we're expecting a lot of content.

Hopefully you guys can forgive us for taking so much time and still look forward to seeing the final products.

If you are attending PAX Prime this year, then you will benefit greatly by having this information ahead of time.

Registration and Will call booths are in the Sheraton hotel, as well as a new satellite theater.

The [formerly] Annex is done being renovated and now directly connected to the above expo hall. As usual, it will mostly hold tabletop areas.

The former Queue room is now an expansion of the expo hall. Yeah, that means the expo hall in general is going to be enormous.

The former Main Theater room is now the Queue room.

So where's the new main theater you ask? A few blocks off site. At Benaroya Hall.

This year will indeed be interesting. For more information and details, check this PAX Forum thread.

So I've put together a little 10 minute preview video of our PAX East set. It's not perfect (i.e. there's a few audio issues I was too lazy to figure out) but it works. It's only a representation of a fraction of the content that will be on the final product, mostly because YouTube only allows 10 minute videos. Though I could always make more.

We're hard at work right now and we're trying to get it finished no later than mid-August. But I think it could be sooner. Anyway, here's the video. Enjoy.

Unofficial PAX-EAST 2010 Community DVD Preview

A bit early this time around it seems, but the 7 bands that will make their appearance at PAX Prime this labor day weekend have been revealed!

Were you able to go to PAX East and witness the epicness of The Protomen, but realized that you wanted more? Or were you not able to go at all and completely missed them? Well worry not, as the PAX community has won the battle to get them to the west coast, and they will be playing at PAX Prime! This is indeed amazing news. But that's not all.

We will once again see Anamanaguchi, Jonathan Coulton, Paul & Storm, MC Frontalot, and Metroid Metal. And last but not least, we will see the return of The Minibosses, who last played at PAX in 2008.

I Personally wanted to see the return of The OneUps, but we may have to wait for next year for that one. I also really hope Freezepop makes their return soon as well. Their new material is really good and they're playing nicely with their new member, so hopefully it won't be long before their return to PAX.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the news. I sure do.
