Blockparty 2010 streaming now!
« on: April 18, 2010, 04:35:18 AM »
The second day of Blockparty 2010 here in Cleveland, Ohio, and I'm sitting in the demo compo room right now, waiting for the show to begin so we can vote on the entries. The room is crowded and noisy, music blaring as we wait for the compo to begin.

I thought there would be an Amiga music demo, because last night the coders borrowed our Amiga 500 to use its music tracker. They ran out of time and went to an old PC to do the music demo for entry in the Old School category! ;( Next year I told Ken to give us time to get together the stuff for him to do a C64 and/or Amiga music demo.

So far, there is a Colecovision and 3 carts, sitting here ready to demo in the Old School category.

Upstairs on the third floor, the C64s, VIC-20s, and Amiga 500 are entertaining those in the gaming room.

Hey, I see we are up on Ustream

I can't believe you had me watching a plunger with a balloon on it and 2 do-not-disturb type door-hangers flying through a hallway...

It just boggles the mind the quantity of drugs it must take for this to be considered interesting.. :-)

Mr. Bernardo, you rock! You're totally my Commodore H.E.R.O. Hopefully someday we can meet. OH is a little too far off, but when you're within the downtown Chicagoland metropolitan area... (or the armpit which is southern WI) first beer or three is on me  :)

WHAT?! The scene is still alive in Ohio? Had I only known!
Earth has a lot of things other folks might want... like the whole planet. And maybe these folks would like a few changes made, like more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and room for their way of life. - William S. Burroughs

Oh, thanks for that.  How about some Belgian sweet beer?  :)
