Ok, so we’re back in San Francisco after having to pack up our Tokyo apartment in 9 days to avoid having my visa screwed with by the national lockdown, but there will probably be another vlog post about that - things have been crazy since we landed in the states on April 9, so here’ s very quick…[more]
Thanks to everyone who submitted a video to the "Mister Blue Sky" sing-along. We've all been going through a rough time, Mark and I just had to leave our apartment in Tokyo to move back to San Francisco as COVID-19 cases begin to peak in the United States AND Japan declares a state of emergency, so I'm really glad to be able to share…[more]
Ok…so the big Tokyo birthday bash has been canceled and even though we don’t know what’s going on, shit is NOT looking good right now, for any of us. So let’s do what we do! Here’s a new seed video:
So, today is my birthday and I was looking forward to doing my “go to” karaoke song, “Mister Blue Sky” by Electric Light Orchestra at my birthday party here in Tokyo!
Alas, I had to cancel the party because I got sick and had to quarantine myself and it looks like a lot of you are quarantining yourselves, too. So if you want something to do where we can all collaborate on something, help…[more]
For February's vlog post (and ONLY for February!) I'm giving you an hour-long Valentine Mix of almost every love song I've written/performed between 2004 and 2020.
There are some songs from my own albums and films as well as songs I’ve written and performed for other directors’ films. There’s even the full “Crazy Like Me” from Colma: The … [more]
The next online sing-along is “Everything is Broken”, my holiday song for the displaced that I wrote on Thanksgiving back in 2010 - the last Thanksgiving I spent with my nuclear family. WOMP WOMP! And now, here’s a video of me…[more]
Hey everybody, a lot of you are going through it, and I get it. The time change, elections, breakups, smoky air, power outages, general darkness...I go through it, too. I'm glad you're all being open about your depression; I wouldn't have known otherwise. If you feel…[more]
October is Filipino American History Month AND Domestic Violence Awareness Month! This month's vlog post is a little more of a quick rundown of what's to come, and here are the links to each…[more]
After helping my mother move back to the Philippines, she has a few words to say. So this month's vlog post belongs to her - and for that extra personal touch, she and HER mother (my 96 year old lola) would like to…[more]
Hey everybody!
Wow, the last vlog post got me in contact with a lot of people I haven’t seen in a WHILE! Here’s the latest vlog, this time created in split-screen using Acapella, an app by PicPlayPost. And the song I’m performing is “The First of the Month” by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony. :) Please do…[more]
It’s been 10 years since the last vlog post, and that was mainly because social media had become “a thing”, after that. But with so many people dropping off of social media (myself, included), I thought it would be nice to…[more]
First, a Saturn party (and thanks to all who came!) and now a live NOMAD at the Roxie? What could this all mean?!? Find out by getting your tickets HERE.
What does SATURN mean to you? Come decked out in Saturnian gear and dance to our newest Outdoor Chiptune Continuous Dance Karaoke set while various tourneys happen indoors (Smash Bros Ultimate, MarioKart 8 Deluxe, and more!)
Thanks to everyone who came to Mission Arcade on March 11! Unfortunately, I didn't get any footage of the awesome VR reactions in the front room, nor did we get footage of the MarioKart battles in the Ersatz room, but here is our "continuousdancekaraoke" concept in 2 minutes!
(We'll probably figure out a catchier name than "continuousdancekaraoke" at some point.)
And here is the Bay Area Flash Mob with the full performance of the "Evolution of Hip-Hop" routine!
If anyone took pictures of the 50lb pig or the Golden Record cake made by Mark Del Lima, please let us know!
