My Upcoming Shoutcast Video Game Radio Show

[Eric Dude]

Hey, just thought I'd let some of you know about my upcoming radio show on Shoutcast. Here's my angle: I'm gonna make it sort of a 'Video Game Variety Hour', with music, discussions, banter, co-hosts, reviews, and even a contest. That's right, a contest, for a prize. It's not gonna be expensive or anything, but I think whoever wins it will agree that it's a neat videogame related memento. This variety will also extend to the music played; I'll try to mix it up between stuff like Minibosses, OCRemix, VGMix, Rocked-out Versions, Techno Versions, OSTs, and possibly some stuff you haven't heard. There *will* be a heavy emphasis on requests- feel free to reply to this thread with requests, but only if you're probably gonna listen. I'll try to take requests during the show, too, but beforehand might be better, since I can plan the playlist.

Anyway, I'm gonna be planning for this all week, and I aim to make it pretty damn entertaining! Tune in- I won't let ya down! Here are the details:

What: Gaming Age Radio

When: Debuts Friday, Feb 18th, 7pm-10pm PST

Where: http://gamingage.servegame.com (stream)

http://cvasoc.com/NGI/chat/ (chatroom)

http://kngi.servegame.com (friend's mirror of the stream, if mine gets full, God willing!)

Who: Myself, and 1-2 friends as Co-Hosts- Comin' straight out of... Lynnwood, WA?

Why: Because I want to do justice to the memory of the greatest radio show on Earth, Super Radio X (www.superradiox.com), and because I enjoy entertaining people.

I know some of you might actually be doing stuff on a Friday Night, but if you can listen for even part of the show, I promise it will be worth your while. As I said, a lot of planning will go into this, and judging from the warm reception my test broadcast got, there's a good chance you'll enjoy my DJ-ing. Give me a chance!

I'm giddy right now, so I probably forgot some info... any questions, reply to this thread, or email me at ericface at hotmail dot com. Or hit me up on MSN Messenger or AIM (EricDewd).

(ps- anybody who wants to make a show ident for me, feel free! I'll send you a dollar- no lies!)

Hey, good luck! Due to time zone differences I will probably catch it if I don't get lucky! "Nah babe, I'm heading home to catch an internet video game radio show. See ya!"

Hmm

[Eric Dude]

Here's hoping you don't get laid...

I know, it's selfish. Haha!

BTW, is there an echo in here?

[charitycasegreg]

SOunds pretty rad, but I know I won't be near a computer friday. I really wish I could. YOu should restream it as a rerun at a later time like monday or something. Sounds awesome, good luck!... to the both of you!

[Eric Dude]

Well, it's going to be recorded, so perhaps I will do a rerun on Sunday or something. We'll see!

[-hellvin-]

A rerun on sunday would be cool because I close on Friday and sort the geo shipment and the store closes at 10...so I usually get home around 11.

[Eric Dude]

Yeah, Hellvin, I guess you'll just miss it... Even if I don't officialy air a Re-run, I can always distribute the file to whomever wants it.

Also, good news: My friend Kyle and I decided to pay for a decent server to host our radio shows. So now, Gaming Age will be in high quality sound (80kbps), and can handle up to 40 listeners (shouldn't even need to use the mirror I posted). If you were undecided before, this oughtta be the clincher!

[PDorr3]

nice idea, I'll be there...if I remember that is. Can we request ANY game music?

[Eric Dude]

Yep, feel free to request anything. If you request it before the show, I'm sure I can find something from any particular game.

As far as remembering that the show is on, don't worry; I'll post a reminder here on Friday.

[Eric Dude]

Alright guys, the show is in 2 hours. Tune in if you can, and don't forget to check the chatroom. It's usually good times in there. I'll start the stream up about 5 minutes before I start the show, just so people can connect.

[Mr.FoodMonster]

From the looks of it, I should be able to tune in. Looking forword to it!

/You can play some Katamari music, but I'm sure that was already planned =P

[MegaDrive20XX]

Lay on some CastleVania 3's "Beginning" for me as a request...been a while since i've heard that one...

and of course, the Mini Bosses's "GHOSTS N GOBLINS" for my sake

[Eric Dude]

Got your requests, guys. Thanks! Though I warn you, I'll probably only do 1 request per person, just so everybody gets a shot at it.

[MegaDrive20XX]

Sorry to say this, I can hear your AIM window *Door Opens* *Door Closes* while the radio show plays

[njiska]

Hey if you're still checking the forums for requests i would love to hear the Minibosses version of Contra. It's just so damn good.

[Big Papa Husker]

Just logged on... this should provide me with something as I do my evil accounting homework.

[MegaDrive20XX]

I'm loving it so far man, this is great
