Being an Athens, Ga local myself, seeing a Joystiq commenter yesterday plug local gaming group Contraband gave me an idea ... I can plug them better. Contraband, where rock group Cinemechanica plays the background music while two costumed players run through Contra with no cheat codes (image credit).
Contraband is taping their show for a DVD on January 26 at local venue Georgia Theatre. Say hi to the awesome kid in a Joystiq shirt if you do show up.
Where was I? Oh yeah, check out the highlights for today.
