Status Quo Sunday Is Blowing The Hell Up

 I've done a bunch of shit since the last SQS, so let's go!

FURRY WEEKEND ATLANTA

 

WOW, WHAT A WEEKEND! I'm serious, this show popped the FUCK off, and I couldn't be happier! I made a bunch of new fans, sold a lot of merch, and most importantly...

THEY GAVE ME A MIC STAND!

Also I was a host for the live Fastest Furs event, which while relatively uneventful given my timeslot, was a great place to meet people I've only seen on the other side of a Twitch stream, and really, why else do we show up to these conventions?

Still incredible that we made 60% more than our goal for the Animal Park Conservatory!

Excited to go back next year, and yes, I will be getting TWO MIC STANDS! Maybe three? I dunno. 

Atlanta's also been the city where I've been putting a lot of my job applications, because as you might have seen in the news, Florida ain't going too great... 

A funny story I got is that I got a call for a job interview on the elevator at the con... while on my way to a Himbo Hooters meetup!



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FUTURE SHOWS

Anime Festival Orlando- June 17th, 2023, 8 PM Open Panel Room


 

 

 

 

 

 

AKA The only anime convention that hasn't pissed me off yet! I remember actually doing pretty well, but this year it's the same weekend as CommanderFest Orlando, so I'm trying to get some cross promotion going. Of course, I will make it plenty early so everyone can jam in some commander games with me :D

Anthrocon- June 30th, 2023, 5:30 PM, DLCC Spirit of Pittsburgh


 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the big time, y'all! I'm going to be crammed in a room, but this is the best way I can make it work on such short notice. THE PREMIERE furry con (well, at least until Midwest Fur Fest) but this is such a big opportunity, I'm making it count! 

PAWPERTY DAMAGE

 

Hey, a game I did music for made it to the final game! It's a tight little package that is a well constructed experience. There's not a whole lot there mind you, but what is there is 100% solid. 

I would like to do more music for it, especially if and when they plan to make more content for it. Hopefully someone else can run with it. 

JAM OF THE WEEK: "Call Of The Void" by Mutoid Man



My friend Milt introduced me to these guys through the series "Two Minutes To Late Night", where they are the house band. Coincidentally, 2M2LN directed the video, and Jordan Olds/Gwarsenio Hall makes an appearance as an "Imagineer"/Jonesy Spencerson. Mutoid Man is the name of a boss from the game Smash TV, and this is the closest I've seen them pay homage to its namesake.

"Call Of The Void" FUCKING GOES. It's constant motion and whining, screeching chaos that belies a song about avoiding despair, which GIVEN EVERYTHING is very necessary. I can "hear" everything without it devolving into noise or "Put Me In Clone Hero" shredding. Just a well put together song that varies up its central conceit to keep it recognizable without having it get dull or overly "pop"

One thing I like noticing in TV shows and such is when a character that's a robot has mechanical whirring effects dubbed in later like Jimmy The Robot from "The Aquabats Super Show". Here, the band is portrayed as an animation band, and YUP, the got the little whirs. Don't worry nothing bad happens, trust me.

Status Quo Sunday Stuff I Did Since The Last Post

Stuff I did since the last post: 

I OPENED UP A PROPER MERCH STORE 

It's been a long time coming, but since TeeSpring still caters to racists, I switched over to Threadless which has a TON of cool products, and I'm making the most out of all of them, namely A FUCKING SKATEBOARD DECK AND SHOES! 

I PUT MY SIZZLE REEL FOR LIVE GIGS ON YOUTUBE
Yeah, Convention Season is fast approaching, and the number of cons I CAN do is shrinking, but I figured it's time to finally put one of these together and show the world what I can do, especially if I apply to cons outside of Florida.

Plus it's good to have a good video to show to people on the front page of my Youtube to show off what I can do LIVE!

AND MY COMPOSER REEL 

 

While I AM going to be releasing the composition work I did for Retromania Wrestling as it's own, alongside a single making it a pseduo-album of sorts, I did make a few other compositions over the years that would totally make me hireable for people to do music for.

Also learning Wwise, which does a lot of interesting things, and is incredibly powerful. Seriously, it's almost like magic.

I STARTED A WRESTLING FEDERATION: HARDCORE NERDCORE WRESTLNG (HCNCW)

  

So I was planning on having a thing when Retromania released, but WHOOPS!

Regardless, I held a Royal Rumble event with a bunch of characters from my various endeavors (3000 Brigade, RPG Pals Club, I'd Rather Not, etc.), and it proved to be really popular, and I had a lot of fun doing it with my friends.

Every Thursday 9 PM EST, me and my friends Ernie and AJ announce for automated Fire Pro Wrestling matches, and the lore has gotten pretty complex, and it gets even MORE fun when 3000 Brigade people come in to play their counterparts.

The current champions for the record:
Hardcore Nerdcore Wrestling Championship - Thrash Panda (from Thrash Panda, the song)

3000 Brigade Championship - Turd Ferguson (from 3000 Brigade)

HCNCW Undercard Belt - Queen Boo (from 3000 Brigade)

HCNCW Tag Championship - MidNights (Midnight Love, NiGhts)
Midnight Love was a Patron's character
NiGhts is from the SEGA games that somehow weaseled his way into the I'd Rather Not lore

Illuminachos Trio - The Burninators (Todd, Strong Bad, Male Bowser)
Todd is the mascot from the podcast Taste of Dragons, a podcast done by 3000 Brigade people
Strong Bad was from Homestar Runner and thrown in as a joke
Male Bowser is from the 3000 Brigade
