So as of today it's official - we will be back for MAGfest 9, January 13-16 in Alexandria, VA (right next to Washington DC)! Many here on the forums can attest to how awesome MAGfest is, and this year, it's even better because the PROTOMEN will be joining us as well! In addition, this will be our first ever performance with the godfathers of Video Game rock, the MINIBOSSES! Check out the link below, the lineup is insane.
Can't wait for a beer pong rematch with Jay C, Comm BA, and Jim Fear - PRO TIP: this time, don't play beer pong with Gin and Tonics. Hope the whole Megaforum crew from last year can make it, as well as some of the new faces we met at Bit Gen and perhaps a few of the rest of you who we've still not met!
Can't wait. It's gonna be a blast.
All the info here: www.magfest.org

Hm. 13th will be a minimum day and 14th will be a no school day, so this may well be within some realm of possibility. That's also the end of the semester, though, so who knows how buried in work I might be by then. And there's the matter of being trusted by my mom to go by myself to the other end of the country with a bunch of people I only know online. WISH ME LUCK

I know all this stuff is just old copypasta they have lying around, but they could've at least updated that bit with GA and/or SaW.

Man. I'm sorry to say that I can't make it. If possible I'll try save enough money to fly to the states next year. If people could help with food and accommodation I should be able to make it.
Heck, If I could take my whole band we could perform.
Alas... that is a pipe dream though.

Yeah, they asked us for an updated bio but I hate writing about ourselves - anybody care to take a stab at writing us a new one?

How many times are we allowed to mention how awesome you guys are? If any less than four hundred thousand eight hundred and twenty two times... I can't.
I don't want to lie to the general public.

I know I say this just about every time a huge event rolls around but I may actually be able to make it this time for LEGIT, SON.
I finally have a car that doesn't explode when I try to pull it out of the parking lot.

I am going to be there so hard.
I went last year, but had only just discovered you guys, so hadn't made a forum account yet, so I missed out on the awesome. So, hopefully this time I can get in on the crazy.

I took a shot at writing a new bio, just had to add a couple sentences to update it.
Since the year 200X (4), The Megas have strived to bring a message from Dr. Light to the people. They have chosen to transmit that message, the tale of a small blue robot named Megaman, directly into the eardrums of the general populace through the power of rock. Composed of four mere humans with no known robot powers, The Megas previously used their face melting abilities in other rock projects including the popular punk act Agent 51, who signed with Billie Joe Armstrong’s Adeline Records and enjoyed some tour success before disbanding. However, it was not until they rallied behind Megaman that they found a true purpose for their rock: the righteous cause of justice. Their debut album, Get Equipped, is inspired by the soundtrack to Mega Man 2. Their second release, Megatainment, is a collaboration with fellow video game rock act Entertainment System, and is a tribute to the first game in the Mega Man series. After they they put out an acoustic version of Get Equipped, Get Acoustic, featuring all the band members on acoustic instements and a backing orchestra. The band is currently hard at work on their next LP, based on (surprise surprise) Mega Man 3! They have released a single, Sparked a War, to hold fans over until the next album.

I'm almost broke right now. I will try to acquire some money between now and then.
