Emerging from the depths of their mother's basements are The Lame Boyz, a colossal collaboration consisting of Gameboy musicians; Turbo Tiger and Pugbath. Drawing more from queefs and dreams than from their predecessors, The Lame Boyz sound can be defined somewhere between progressive pop and the sound of unicorns fornicating with the intention of bouncing breasts and butt cheeks. The Lame Boyz use Gameboys and the Nintendo Ds as their weapons of choice, giving them a sound beyond the typical 8-bit blips and bloops. These two combined with an array of windchimes, props, costumes and surprises make for a unique live experience that is both entertaining as it is exhausting.

I did one of those Auduinos about a year ago..I just followed instructions, but it was fun.

Next year when I finally have time, I'll build one of these and really try to do a nice case for it too (I'll replace the keyboard functions with some buttons, maybe):

yeah i was looking at that last night. i want to try and make some kind of sequencer, 8 or 16 step. i'm deciding what kind of features i'd want it to have now.

It doesn't sound as good as some of the other artist out there. How do I go about making it sound like I know what I'm doing and not an audible mush?

you could always pay someone else to mix it too.

...NO MORE GHETTOS.

i couldn't agree more... in a way.

out of the 13 monthly shows i've booked in rochester over the past year, i think only one of them has been "all chip" and that was special because it was our year anniversary show.

the best way to get local people to come to your shows is to book good local bands on your shows, regardless of genre. and that's what we try to do with all of our shows. usually we do one out of town chip act, a local chip act, and then one or two good local acts that are similar in someway to the genre of the chip acts.

frankly, most towns don't have the ability to support a "chip only" monthly show. either not enough solo chip bands in town or the audience size is too low to pay the out of town chip bands enough.

anyways, yeah.

i would say, just try to do one show. and see what that's like first.
