“I want to make turtle nerd babies with you”
XCONOMY, a local Boston technology and business online newsource, hosted Battle of the Tech Bands tonight at the Middle East Downstairs in Central Square in Cambridge, MA. My company put up some cash for the event, so I got a free pass and went with some people from work. We got some free food and a one free drink. Of course, being lame old folks, we only stayed for the first three bands (out of six). The bands got better, with the third band, McAlister Drive, pandering to the crowd for votes with free cds, a little Johnny B. Goode, and a Drop Kick Murphys/Jonathon Papelbon montage at the end. Of course, they looked like they were having fun.
At the front of the stage there was a tv screen where you could text message anything and it would show up on the screen. My favorite message was “I want to make turtle nerd babies with you.” A very greek crowd all around.
