This little tidbit just came across my desk (OK, my laptop, since I’m working from home today).

I’m horribly, horribly busy this afternoon, so rather than reword the info, I figured I’d pass it along as I received it, sans editorial comment. Cop-out? Totally. Still, this looks like a stupendously fun show. Here ya go:

This Saturday, May 31, I’ll be playing an EARLY show at Metronome in Burlington. The show starts at 6:30pm and will all wrap up by 9:30. The line up is Koolaoke (Jason Cooley with a mustache?), Missy Bly, and James Kochalka Superstar. I’ll be doing a bunch of songs rock style with my band, but also doing a bunch of songs solo style on my GameBoy using a program called Nanoloop. I’ve never played live with the Gameboy before, so this’ll be the first.

best wishes,
James Kochalka

  2. Ha! Nice burn.Actually, I’ve been making Gameboy music for a long time (and using other programs beside nanoloop, the lesser known Pocket Music cart, for instance). Just not so publicly for the most part… but you can find a fair amount on my website, AmericanElf.comThis is just the first LIVE show with it. All tracks from an upcoming album I’m working on.
