Hey Kids,
Long time eh?
For those of you who attended the April Supanova in Brisbane, we finally have a long awaited announcement - the winners of the best performance!
There have been some mega delays on this due to a couple of RL issues, most notably the complete disappearance of a whole shipment of goodies from Harmonix over in the US. It left Boston, but somewhere after that it has vanished. We were holding off on an announcement as we followed this up in the vain hope that the goodies were going to turn up, but this has obviously not happened and it's not really fair to anyone to hold off any longer.
Anyway... extremely belated congratulations go to Team WhoopAss for their 2 spectacular performances!!!
"Kickstart My Heart" by Motley Crue is one of our favourite songs and despite the fact that it was a great performance anyway, it never hurts to cater to the judges tastes! We're sorry we have nothing to give you but the fame, glory and our eternal rock respect guys. If the missing shipment does ever turn up you'll be the first to know. Well done!
Special mention also goes to the Capt Jack Sparrow's (Jr & Sr) and Miracle Dave, who has to get the new record for most songs played on drums over the weekend!
Folks who follow our Facebook page (which should be everyone!) would know that last weekend the Rock Stars stage was in full effect at AusCon, blasting ears and melting faces. Everyone had a great time and even though the event is only in its infancy, it has great potential and we're proud to be associated with it. For anyone who doesn't follow us on Facebook, you really should as it's where the majority of our updates and new gigs are advertised. It's here, so click the linky, go and 'like' it now, we'll wait.. gogogogo!!!
November 4th - 6th see round 2 of the Supanova Expo in Brisbane. We're already in negotiations with the Supanova guys, so expect to see the Rock Stars stage rocking the place and keeping everyone entertained over the weekend. We look forward to seeing you all there!
Finally, we'd like to make a formal welcome to our new partners in crime err.. rock.. Alchemy E-Coustics. Joe and the guys at AE are the makers of that fine blue electronic kit that you've all been playing on for the past few months. It really is a match made in heaven and we're so proud to be able to partner with them and help spread awareness of their fine product. If you're looking for a new set of drums for your home Rock Band setup, want a great electronic kit to play on, or even if you have decided you like this drums thing and want to start learning, you really can't go past these kits. If you'd like to learn more, contact us on sales@rockstarsentertainment.com and we can put you in touch with them.
Well, that's about all for now. We look forward to catching up with you all in November at Supanova!
Til then, keep rockin!
