SURPRISE PARTY
Our new year's resolution for 2008 is to do something awesome and utterly original
every Thursday night at the 10 High. Throw our approach towards music, comedy, and film into a glass. Muddle with sugar cane, lime, and mint. You'll be sipping on an entertainment mojito like you've never tasted. Details coming soon...
Limozeen on '80s Guitar Hero
Y O U now appears on 2 songs on the
Guitar Hero game series, both with the Brothers Chaps of the Homestar Runner, so I guess you could say we're a BIG deal.

Trogdor on Guitar Hero 2!
People are video-gaming to our guitar-playing. Never thought I would type that one.
Short version = we played on the
Strongbad Sings record for the Homestar Dudes, the video game gods asked them to use the song, they said yes, and now you can unlock the song if you've earned enough "money" playing "gigs" on the game. Burnination 4 Ever.
