Wow! That's a hell of a line up (as always!)

I talked about the event a bit on the latest Gamewave Podcast (Should be out in a few days). Don't worry guys, I invited the whole of the USA to attend this one. I think it's gonna sell out.... (yes, I was stupid enough to pitch the event to the whole of the country: "If you live in the states, you'll wanna get to this event!).

Still, wish I could be there.

Awesome, thanks for the shoutout James! This is the last "monthly" I/O but of course we'll see if we can put together one-off shows if any far away traveling chip musicians come to town, hint
