Want to Perform at Nerdapalooza?
That’s right folks! We’ve received a metric buttload of interest from performers this year, and it’s time for us to open the floodgates for performers to apply to perform at Nerdapalooza. If YOU are an artist interested in performing at Nerdapalooza in Orlando, FL, on the last weekend of June, 2010, then this is what you do:
Piece together a press kit that has a biography of you or your group, a promotional photo of you or your group, and a few samples of your music (either ...
studio or live). The samples can be in pure audio or video form. A live sample is preferred so we can have an idea of how you perform.
Email said press kit to our talent director, Josh, at artist AT nerdapalooza DOT org with the subject “[Your Name Here] Application for Nerdapalooza 2010″
Have patience, because Nerdapalooza 2010 is still a few months away, and it’ll take us some time to respond to every artist
If you have any questions about the process, feel free to contact Josh at the above email address. If you have performed at Nerdapalooza before, it might be wise to remind us that you’re interested in performing again with a press kit.
Next in big news is the announcement of the official starting of the Nerdapalooza Video Awards entry submission process. You can read all of it over at the NVA page, however the basics are that you have until March 1, 2010, to get us your entry. We can’t wait to see all the entries!!
Next we take you to the Nerdapalooza Store, where a few changes have been made! First, the Nerdapalooza 2008 Poster, where every artist is pictured, has dropped down to its new price of only $2! Next, the Nerdapalooza 2008 Live CDs are back in stock for $10 each! And finally, the Nerdapalooza 2009 Live CD is available for pre-order, also for $10. Remember, the profits from both CDs go to our charity, Child’s Play, so every purchase goes straight to helping sick kids!
While on the topic of the Live CD, I want to remind everyone that the Live CD Release Party will be November 21st at the AMF Casselberry Lanes. All details are located on the Facebook event page. Also, quick reminder to go to A Comic Shop tomorrow at 2 PM for THE GAUNTLET!! It’s going to be crazy awesome! I also hear I Fight Dragons is going to be there partying before their show at 8 PM at AKA Lounge with mc chris! Woooo!! So glad I have tomorrow off from work!
We’re hoping to interview IFD on Nerdy Show while we have a hold of them tomorrow. If you hadn’t checked it out yet, we recommend downloading the latest episode, which is a tribute to chiptunes. We also got to interview the British chiptunes archmage, Pixelh8, regarding his latest release, And the Revolution. While it sounds like his next project is already under heavy construction, he DID give Nerdapalooza an exclusive track to play!
You Were Born to Save The World (Pure Chip Version)
Thanks, Pixelh8.
Now for our belated version of Follow Friday, I want to start off by reminding you to follow Nerdapalooza on Twitter if you aren’t already!
Pixelh8 :: for obvious reasons
Nerdy Show :: we just activated this account and need some love!
Scrub Club Records and Nerd Rockstar :: for putting on a PHENOMENAL Nerd Invasion!

Well, that’s enough of that! If you haven’t yet, peek at my review of Shael Riley & the Double Ice Backfire’s album Songs from the Pit. Monday, I’ll be releasing my review of Insane Ian’s first full length release, n3rds0ngs. He’s been turning heads in the FuMP community, so this may not be an album you want to miss if you like your music with laughs. Until then, thanks for reading this rather lengthy blog!
Much nerdy love
