I feel like some of you might enjoy this brief clip of The Protomen playing Separate Ways during soundcheck. (See also.)

nemo-in-slumberland asked:

Would you ever consider making more Protomen inspired drinks like The Good Doctor?

Absolutely. Booze and the Protomen are two of my most favoritest interests.

Hey look a submission let’s justOHGODWHY

protofans

We thought this went without saying, but please: we don’t need any submissions of drawings of Protomen members engaging in freaky sex acts with other Protomen members. All three of us are going to go look at kitten pictures for a while. Later we may hold each other and cry softly.

emmastory

Apparently this needs posting again. And we need kitten pictures again.

thejazzdesign asked:

Howdy stranger! So I'm planning on doing some art over the holiday that kind of celebrates the Protomen fans on tumblr. I'm basically going to draw us looking bad ass, because why not? SO, if you would be so kind, could you tell me what you think your Protomen name would be and what your war paint would look like? I'd be much obliged! :D

My official code name is The Enabler. I have never really thought about face paint, though I have accidentally worn some before.

Music you want

• The Protomen: Sweet zombie Jesus, how I love The Protomen. There is no reason a 10-person Nashville band who do rock opera about Megaman should be good, but it so is. I have Tycho to thank for this one, actually. You may recall that I was still wicked sick during PAX, and consequently I thought pretty hard about disco-napping through the start of the Friday night shows and getting up just in time to see Front. I was assured, however, that even as a Protonoob I was in for quite a treat, and that turned out to be an understatement. Go get both albums right now, but also see if you can make it to a live show. I was blown away by their PAX set, and was similarly delighted at another show a couple weeks ago here in NYC. Totally worth seeing if you possibly can.
• Makeup and Vanity Set: I know about MAVS because of this awesome album of 8-bit Protomen remixes, which you should also acquire, but don’t stop there. The new self-titled album that came out in March is sheer pleasure. I feel like the same folks who dig Download and cEvin Key’s other solo stuff would dig this. Excellent background music for working.

• Anamanaguchi: Another PAX revelation! They’re also Brooklyn locals, which is handy. I recommend giving them a try even if you normally aren’t really into chiptune. I was skeptical, but both albums have made it into heavy rotation on my iPhone.
• Skeletonbreath: I love it when I’m surprised by an opening band. I feel like openers are often not paired very well with their headliners, which leads to everyone having kind of a shitty time. I can’t imagine it’s fun playing to a crowd that’s just waiting for you to get off the fucking stage, and while I appreciate the chance to pee and get another beer, I’d usually rather get an extra hour of sleep than see another band I’m not really into. But I’m really glad I got to see Skeletonbreath, because I can’t imagine I would have found out about them otherwise, and they’re rad. Go check them out.

We’d like to give a shoutout to truly hardcore Protomen fan ShutUpAndJamza. He’s such a total badass that not only did he attend the November show in NYC while undergoing chemotherapy, he rocked out in the middle of the goddamn pit.

He’s got an incredible thread going with more photos over at Reddit if you’d like to read more.

Here’s to you, dude. Your unquenchable fighting spirit is what being a Protofan is all about.

Guess what? It’s the five year anniversary of this post, which means it’s now five years I’ve been friends with this cyborg motherfucker right here. Because it turns out shortly after that Reddit thread we went to PAX together and gamed some games and attended some concerts and spooned with some robots.

There’s a pretty great update thread on Reddit that you should definitely consume. Here’s to not dying!

emmastory

This seems like a good week (or month, or year) to be reminded that the internet isn’t always unceasingly awful. Right now my Twitter feed is basically a dumpster fire, but there’s also this guy who I met on goddamn Reddit of all places five years ago and now we’re friends and better still he’s also not dead.

Last night was pretty much a perfect New York evening, the kind that makes me happier than I can say with my life as it is right now. And I don’t think there’s a better way to spend the evening of the 4th than at a picnic on the roof of the McKittrick, watching fireworks with friends & fellow drunks.

emmastory

eleven years ago tonight! I believe this was the only 4th of july event the mckittrick has ever had, and it was also the first event held at gallow green.
