Okay, I’m calling it, Left Shark 10th anniversary the same day as the Golden Sun OST becomes licensable? The gods have favored us!

Reflecting on today’s Left Shark anniversary, the year of Left Shark was also the year I found and got involved in the VGM community. Definitely not a coincidence. I owe my time in VGM to Left Shark. #leftshark #vgm

Happy 10th anniversary, Left Shark! The hero we didn't deserve. Proud to say that I got to see it as it happened. Where were you on this momentous occasion?

Got a mostly VGM set that I'm preparing for this show, including some I've never performed before. As someone born and raised in Brentwood, immediately adjacent to the Palisades, this concert really means a lot to me.

I've played four Dragon Quest games as an adult, and there's a deep, profound sadness that DQ manages to capture every time that very few games do.
