Whuff-aoke or Bust!

Green Gorilla Media
Melissa Mansfield and Green Gorilla Media shot and produced this AWESOME video for us during Whuffaoke San Francisco! Enjoy!

Signing in here to post that last video, I realized that nobody has posted to the blog since we wrapped Las Vegas. That was almost a week ago!!
If you’ve been following our tweets, you are all up to date. But if not, here’s a quick recap:
We left Vegas for Salt Lake City, expecting more road [...]

Right before we set up at our karaoke venue, ImpromptuStudio, it’s owner Dan Shipton took us on a tour of a couple of the other collaborative spaces in Des Moines. This included ImpromptuStudio itself, @ScottRocketship’s Market Street Media Foundry, and the offices of one of the local sponsor LavaRow. While at LavaRow, founder Nathan Wright [...]

Whuffaoke LAS Wrap Up
After the epic stress of the first night in San Francisco and the disastrous journey down to Los Angeles, our Las Vegas event wemt incredibly smoothly, well, almost. There was a slight hicup where 2 hours before the event we realized no one had contacted the venue about bringing the RV, and [...]

Yesterday, the first day of the tour was full of travel woes. Everything was going so well, we were making good time and Emma was cruising along at around 70 mph. We estimated a mid afternoon arrival in Los Angeles. Plenty of time to stop for supplies  and catch up with our welcome party for [...]

After an adventurous first day on the road, what with the winnie breaking down and all, we should be arriving in Los Angeles this evening to rock and roll. The party goes [...]

*UPDATE* 17:03 We’ve broken down again on a really steep hill…
Oh Noes, Winnie our trusty winnebago has conked out twice on us now… once when Emma Persky was driving and once again under the command of captain Tony B…
We think it might [...]

Emma takes her packing seriously and recorded her epic skills in a little video. She also completely disregarded the advice instruction to pack lightly, and only bring a small carry on…

You’re just about to finish your insanely rocking performance of Paranoid. You’ve rocked everyone’s faces off with your perfect rendition of Ozzy at his peak, and the crowd is going nuts.
The venue is a stage, so you’re above the audience. It’s a real concert feel. You feel like you’re really in Black Sabbath.
Then, just as [...]

I’m super duper stoked to kick off the site for this most excellent adventure today!
First of all…thanks to William Dodson for the beautiful, lovely and awesome design! Isn’t it spectacular? I really ran William through the gauntlet to get this done in record time, but wow! You rawk! Thanks also to the sponsors who are [...]
