This weekend I'm in Syracuse at @retrogamecon.bsky.social for the inaugural performance of the @jononealmusic.bsky.social live band! Feat myself, @megabeardo.bsky.social, and Adam Henry. 💥

We're doing two unique shows, one at the con and one at the after-party. Pinball music will happen. So stoked!

(Also hi haven’t been on bluesky in a bit lol)
This weekend! I'll be at RetroGameCon in Syracuse playing bass for The Arkadian! (@jononealmusic.bsky.social). We're performing two sets, including the after party on Saturday. My first live VGM performance in 3 years, so I am stoked!

HELL YEAH!
NEW VIKING GUITAR LIVE RELEASE:

In 2023, Sega announced a new Golden Axe, so we wanted to do the same; our original band version was back in 2013(?!) This one is heavier, faster, and the right music to chop heads to.

SEGA DIDN'T DELIVER. WE DID.

-huge gasp of air after sniffing the smelling salts- hoooo boy I’m back

Thought I’d share some life updates (a thread):

I recently stepped away from my full time to pursue my music a little more. It wasn’t an easy decision to make for myself but I truly felt like I was rotting away.

Ordered some custom Arkadian picks through Intune. I’ve heard nothing but good things about them so I’m really looking forward to seeing how they turned out 🤘🏻😎

I made it home from VGM Con. Not as tired as I thought I’d be but now I’m back to work on music stuff. The kids band will be dropping a single soon followed by the album. After that…we’ll see 😉

This weekend was wonderful and this community means the world. Now for one day of rest (Monday Night Raw) before six days of tracking the new @psychic-hit.bsky.social album. We worked incredibly hard for this and the vision came to fruition. We’ll see you at @splitscreenseattle.bsky.social May 8th!
