Happy 2015 Guys!

It’s 2015, and we’re almost a month into the new year! Things are going to be pretty hectic over the next few months, but here at aniRAGE we’ve got some neat things we’re going to try and bring you this year. Going to be working on updating the gallery so that we can get better quality photos in addition to our Facebook page, and who knows, maybe we’ll even be able to put out a few videos for you all to enjoy! Some things are still in the planning stages, but we’ll be working to bring you some new exciting things soon!

The aniRAGE Con Season Is About To Kick In!

Greetings everyone! Zeke here. I know we’ve been quiet lately, but fear not! We have some great news!

Coming up in November is ShadoCon Year 3: Origins! Once again aniRAGE will be showing up to put on our Whose Line is it aniRAGE? Shows! We’re bringing back what we debuted last year, the 18+ Whose Line show, as well as our standard PG-13 style show. We’re super excited to be back for a third year, and we can’t wait to see everyone there.

A month afater that we make our triumphant return to Orlando for Holiday Matsuri! This is there second year, and we are super excited that they are bringing us back once more. We’ll update you guys with more information on what shows and panels we’ll be bringing as information develops. Stay tuned!

Again, we’ll post more information about what panels and shows we’ll be bringing and it develops, but we are excited to once again bring great entertainment to Northeast Florida, and where many members of aniRAGE call home: Jacksonville Florida!

That’s all for now, but stay tuned for more info!

A recap of some great new shows!

These past few months have been super busy for aniRAGE, and we are happy to say that some great new shows have come out of it. At Holiday Matsuri and Khaotic Kon we were able to try out some new stuff, and we are happy to report that some are going to be entering our repertoire!

I’ll start off with the first one, our 18+ Whose Line is it aniRAGE? Uncensored! Often times we get suggestions and ideas from the audience that we have to say no to, for one reason or another. Most aniRAGE shows are going to be PG to PG-13, depending on what the con demands. But in Whose Line is it aniRAGE? Uncensored! we’re tossing all that out the window! Our first three shows were great, and we hope to be able to bring this new variation of our popular show to you again and again!

Next up is aniRAGE Remembers. This idea was birthed after Kirby and I spent almost an entire afternoon watching old saturday morning cartoon theme songs and pre-commercial spots. We quickly realized that we could make a panel out of this, so at Holiday Matsuri we busted out the seasonal and timely “aniRAGE Remembers: Holiday Specials”. It was a great time, with everyone coming together and reminiscing about the childhood specials that with us through the ages, for good reasons OR bad! At Khaotic Kon we moved on to Saturday Morning Cartoons, and we had a great time talking about ABC, USA, Fox, and more. We’re happy to say that this will be a panel we keep going with, so stay tuned for when it shows up next!

At Khaotic Kon, we finally incorporated a big guilty pleasure of most of aniRAGE…Wrestling! The aniRAGE Wrestle Rumble was a smashing success. Not only did I get to show off some of my replica wrestling belts, but we got to hear some awesome stories from the crowd about how they got into wrestling, who their favorite wrestler of “all the times” was, and some of our favorite entrance music. We hope to bring this back soon!
Next up, at Holiday Matsuri, Dashi and I unleashed our Minecraft panel. We went over some fun building tips, how to work with redstone, and how to get inspiration for different building projects. We also went over a few different mods for the game, including the much loved Technic Pack. We have some big plans for this panel in the future, so keep an eye out for it.

And finally, we had the aniRAGE Trivia Challenge. What started off as a fun little hallway experiment at one con turned into a full-blown panel, where contestants competed for fabulous prizes and more. We had a great showing, and we are fast at work brainstorming some new game show ideas for everyone to enjoy. So definitely be on the lookout for those!

It was a fun winter, and this year looks like it’ll be just as good! Keep your eyes tuned to aniRAGE.com for all the latest and greatest news about new panels, new shows, and more!

Upcoming aniRAGE Awesomeness.

Freecon is in the books! That’s right, after many hours of travel, and a fun day of running around like fools, aniRAGE rocked the house with our Whose Line is it aniRAGE? show! We debuted not just one, not two, but THREE new games at the show: Banned Letter, 1 3 5 Any, and Interrogation! We hope to have a video compilation of the performance up soon, and stay tuned for some great pictures not only from Megacon but Freecon as well!

Next up in the schedule is Anime Day Jacksonville! The Jax crew of aniRAGE is going to be making an appearance, hanging out with the con goers, passing out flyers and business cards, and snapping pictures! Of course, where there is aniRAGE there are cameras and camcorders, so you never know what is going to happen! Keep your eyes peeled for the guys in the aniRAGE shirts, you never know when you might find yourself on the net!

Of course, coming up in a few short months is Metrocon 2011. Zeke and Kayla have press badges, so they will be there to document the whole weekend with pictures and videos aplenty! Make sure to make it down to Tampa for what will surely be a great weekend. Our good friend Ashley Clark will be there with Fairytale Theater, and some awesome people we met at ShadoCon (Kara Edwards and Kyle Herbert) will be guests! And returning this year are Scott McNeil, Brad Swaile, KellyJane and TealPirate, Yaya Han, and more! Another two big guests coming are Crispin Freeman (I can still hear Kayla squealing in the background now) and Max Brooks (writer of World War Z and the Zombie Survival Guide, son of legendary Mel Brooks). It’s a great lineup, so make sure to look for aniRAGE!

We have some great stuff in the works for all of you, and we can’t wait to announce some excellent new projects! So stay tuned here at anirage.com, and make sure to check us out on the web elsewhere at twitter(@aniragecomedy) and facebook(facebook.com/anirage)!

Upcoming aniRAGE Appearances!

Hey errbody (that’s hip-hop for “everybody”. I’ve been listening to way too much T-Pain and Lil Wayne, I’m afraid). The next few months have some great stuff in store!

We are about two weeks away from MegaCon 2011! Join Zeke and Kerby has they run amok at the convention, taking pictures, shooting some videos, and hanging out with our fellow con friends. No performances this time around, but that doesn’t mean we won’t be finding some fun stuff to do. Look out for us all three days!

Two weeks after that is Tallahassee’s own FreeCon 20011. We are bringing our Whose Line is it aniRAGE? show there, so make sure to check it out! Plus, we’ll be there with our good friends AnimeBelle and if you’ve ever been t one of her panels before, you’ll know it’ll be a blast.

In May is the newly announced Jacksonville Anime Day. Since it’s taking place in Jacksonville, I’m sure you’ll see us there in some form or fashion. Definitely stop by in the area and bring out your costumes for awesome pictures.

The very next month, we are proud to announce that we will be bringing out cameras to Metrocon 2011! Our own photographer Kayla (and Zeke, of course) have gained Press Badges, so we will be scouring the halls for the best cosplay around. And what would Metrocon be without Animebelle’s own Fairy Tale Theater! Make sure to come check out what will be a wonderful performance. We’ll have more info on this as time goes on, but definitely check out Animebelle’s site for up to date information!

This is going to be an awesome year, and I know that I can speak for all of us here in aniRAGE when we say we want to see all of you there!

Until next time,
-Zeke
