Performance Guest: Bit Brigade
Bit Brigade
Bit Brigade performs rock covers of full NES game soundtracks as their gamer speedruns the game live on stage.
“When was the last time you attended a live music performance with a genuine element of risk involved? And no, going to a Gwar show with a white t-shirt on doesn’t count. When Bit Brigade takes the stage your mind will frantically oscillate between “Oh! Agh!! Please don’t die!!” and “YES! He’s doing it!!” Combining the dread and daring of a live video game speed run with the spot-on technique of a live band covering the musical accompaniment to everything you’re seeing on-screen in real time, Bit Brigade will have you swinging between the two mediums. From thrashing about to live renditions of your favorite stage themes, fingers yearning to the sky in a rock ‘n roll parody of sea anemones seeming to silently plead, “Please, feed us more fretboard pyrotechnics!,” to being locked in stock-still rapture as the infallible maestro of the d-pad, Noah McCarthy, takes on the final boss and risks his video game life under the threat of intense peer scorn (or the reward of night-long glory and a credits score). No matter the outcome, Bit Brigade must play on until the deed is done – which it always is – on the first (and last) try. Once Noah’s NES buzzes on, there’s no turning back.” – Metalhead Mike of The Shizz, summer 2011

Guest Announcement: Kazha
Kazha is a rock band founded by a Japanese singer-songwriter Kazuha Oda (Kazha) and a guitarist Hideki Matsushige in 2009.
Kazuha Oda is a classically trained singer who has worked in various genres of music from Classic to Heavy Metal. Her work has appeared on the iTunes Top 100 charts of numerous countries for a significant amount of time. She is an Official Ambassadors of “Music Export Memphis” and currently touring nationally, representing the Birth Place of Rock’n’Roll Memphis, Tennessee.
After the release of their first album in 2010, Kazha made its first U.S.A. debut performing at San Francisco’s Asian Heritage Celebration, sharing the stage with hip-hop group Far East Movement. In September 2010, the band made its first Anime Convention debut at Colorado’s Premier Anime Convention “Nan Desu Kan.” They also appeared at “Vianco Expo” and made their debut in Mexico that same year.

Kazha has shared the stage with national artists such as George Lynch, Tracii Guns, LA Guns, Y&T, Tantric, and Trapt until now. Around 2015, the band gradually started to move their base of operations to Memphis, TN. Since then, they have been featured on local broadcasts such as WREG News Channel 3, Channel 24, and WMC Action News 5.
Kazha represents a new future of music: a fusion of cultures and musical view points that create their sound, combining the softness of a falling feather and the heaviness of a hurricane.

Online Autograph Reservations
In keeping with our current autographs system, autographs will be run on a by demand queueing system. All scheduled times will be broken down to 15 minute blocks and an “average” queue amount will be available per 15 minutes. (This “average” can fluctuate or be different for each guest based on how fast their line is going.) By coming to the autographs desk and “reserving” your slot in one of these queues you no longer have to wait hours in line, just come back during your reserved time and now only wait 15 minutes! If come up during a scheduled signing time and no one is signed up in the queue, you can just walk up! Check out the autographs table for an updates on queueing or walkups.
Now we’ve added another way to sign up! Instead of waiting until the con to come to the desk, you can reserve your slot before hand. The same style of reservations as if at the con, but done while you’re still planning your days out for only a small fee. All guests will leave the last 30 minutes to their scheduled autographs for the day for any overflow or issues and cannot be booked/reserved. If you cannot make your time, please come to the autographs desk and they’ll be happy to help move you to a better suited time still available.
Pre-sign up Autograph slots will be available until Sept 3rd 11:59pm. All leftover slots will be available at the autographs desk at the convention!
**These tickets are for autographs only and are NOT admission to the convention. Admission is required to participate in autograph sessions. You can purchase admission here: Colossalcon East Admission **You can also find our Guest Autograph times on our web schedule so you can plan your awesome weekend! -
