We’ll be rocking while talking... Traditionally, opening receptions at conferences have string quartets or jazz trios soothing you to sleep with every note.  ODTUG Kaleidoscope 2010 will bring you non-stop rock brought to you by… you.  That’s right, we have two Rock Band PS3 setups on stages high above the reception crowd and the exhibit hall floor.  Participants will be able to choose from hundreds of downloaded songs from Rock Band and Rock Band 2 as bands, made up of Kaleidoscope attendees, go head-to-head on drums, guitar, bass, and vocals.  We only have one rule: the vocalist picks the song, but beyond that, anything goes as long as it won’t get us arrested.

Rockers wearing appropriate concert attire (still have your ’87 Guns ‘N Roses black tee lying around?) will be given preference as we form lines to rock out in front of God, country, and your fellow K’Scopers.  Prizes will be awarded to the best performers, which are far more about impressing the crowd than it is playing the right notes, since we’ll have “No Fail Mode” turned on.  Come one and all as you wow us with your rock and roll acumen, and yes, our amps do go all the way to 11.  If you wish to sign up for your place in rock history ahead of others getting talked into it on-site, e-mail events@odtug.com.  We who are about to rock, salute you.
