Game Grumps - Ready Player 3

in #norway7 years ago

This Monday I went to the capital of Norway, Oslo, and watched the Game Grumps + Jacksepticeye live show "Ready Player 3".
For those unfamiliar with these names, they are high profile YouTubers doing videos where they play a game while commentating in real time. These type of videoes are called a "Let's Play".
Personally I was there mainly for Dan Avidan, co-host on Game Grumps and the vocalist of the band Ninja Sex Party.
The first part of their show played out like a live and interactive let's play. They started playing a game of "Mario Party 10" on the Wii U, then split the audience into two halves and assigned one character to each half.

Arin, Jacksepticeye and Dan

Arin chose Princess Peach as his character, Jacksepticeye went with Luigi. The audience was prompted to cheer which character they wanted and ended up with Team Toad and Team Waluigi, I was Waluigi. Wah!
Now Arin would roll for the audiences team but every time a 4-player mini-game came along they would pick one member of the audience from each team to come up and play with them. I was never picked. Wah!
The ones who were picked got introduced on stage and was asked to say something uplifting to their teammates in the audience to get them ready to cheer for their teams representative.
This resulted in some intense mini-games and crowd roars, especially the finale where the two audience-teams were the ones in the lead and the winner of this final mini-game would win the entire round of Mario Party.

The purpose of the mini-game was to jump on platforms and hit buttons that would shine a light in the face of King Boo, the mini-game boss.
Waluigi started with a firm lead but before long it was neck and neck between the two and the suspense was real.
But alas, Waluigi was the victor with 1 point and had won the evenings game of Mario Party in favor of Team Waluigi! Wah!

After the game there was 30 minutes left of the event, and they opened up for a Q&A for the rest of the show. Where they picked members from the audience that would get to ask their questions to whom they wanted. And again I was not picked.

All in all it was a great time, they were funny and friendly and really seemed to enjoy Norway, at least for the little time they spent here.
For me it was really cool to see Dan, this person that I know from videos on the internet, little bummed I never got to actually meet him, but still fun. Hopefully I'll one day get to shake is hand and have a chat with him.
There was a moment during the Q&A where he asked if we, Norway, would like his band Ninja Sex Party to come to Norway, and that was the loudest sound the audience made that night which I think made Dan consider a live show in Norway and that would make me so happy!

The evening coming to an end

Finally I'll share with you a music video by the aforementioned band Ninja Sex Party with Dan as front man and vocalist. I chose this video because it happen to have a guest appearance by Jacksepticeye.
