IndustryGamers - Informing the Games Industry

IndustryGamers KarE3oke Recap

Posted June 2, 2009 by James Brightman

First Annual KarE3oke, co-sponsored by IndustryGamers

IndustryGamers tonight co-sponsored the first annual KarE3oke, teaming up with popular blogs Destructoid and GoNintendo, digital distributor GamersGate, and our publisher Hammersuit to take over LA's Caffe Brass Monkey for a night of food, drinks and (obviously) karaoke.

Hundreds of guests made their way to the popular downtown karaoke bar to kick off E3 2009 the right way, packing the bar within minutes of and creating lines out the door for folks waiting to get in.

Thankfully everyone who made it in was quickly and generously served by the Caffe Brass Monkey staff, and dozens lined up for a turn at the karaoke machine.  We've even embedded a video below of our industry's collective singing skill.  What do you think?

Thanks again to Destructoid, GoNintendo, GamersGate and Hammersuit for a memorable night.
