Default Extra Life: Rally the troops! (Video Inside)



This Saturday, October 18th, InDis, along with the Goo, PSNation and many VGEvo members, will be participating in the Extra Life charity event to benefit pediatric Cancer research at Texas Children's Hospital. The event is a 24-hour gaming marathon and will be begin at 9AM EST. Jason and Chris will be locking themselves into the living room and streaming the entire thing LIVE!

We encourage you guys to come and "hang out" with us. We'd love to have you and plan on doing a lot to interact with everyone. Among other things, we're going to be taking requests while we're playing Rock Band and we'll also be having some auctions for cool shwag like LBP Kratos Codes, NBA 09: The Inside hats, a Incredible Hulk super pack and more! Not to mention there's a chat box on ustream so we'll be able to talk with all of you too!

Similar to a walk-a-thon, you can choose to sponsor us during the event. You can pledge as little as $1 an hour ($24) or just a flat donation of any amount. Even if you can't afford to do an hourly sponsorship, the smallest donations, even $5, goes a very long way to helping these kids and the fight against this disease.

If you'd like to...

Tune In
Check us out at our ustream.tv channel or on our site at interactivedistractions.com.

Donate
You can donate with credit card or PayPal via our Extra Life Donations Page.

Thanks to all and we will see you on Saturday!

Very cool guys! I love seeing the cross-community support and everyone coming together for sucha great cause!

We're all doing great things this weekend with Extra Life! Everyone should be very proud of their involvement in the gaming marathon and with all the contributions we've gathered. When we announce the final numbers, I'm betting we'll all be filled with the pride that can only come from a job well done!

Thanks man.

And that's what we're hoping. When all is said and done... it's all about the kids. So we're doing everything we can to get this thing going and raise as much money as possible. We're trying to get our feed posted on as many places as possible.

So Roth... if you guys don't have a feed of your own going (or even if you do)... post us up on SG if you can.

Let's drive the money toward these kids!

Cancer sucks! Let's Cure it!

Great video! Too bad you can't pay for a slot and run it on TV.

I agree; great video. I can't wait to see Jason sing. I'll drop some substantial dollars for that.

Great job, guys.

Hooooo-boy. See the singing thing is a nasty phobia of mine. Suuuure.... Jason may look all cool and confident (and refers to himself in the 3rd person), but on the inside he's a quivering, squirming, scrunched up ball of OHMYF'NGODWHATTHEHELLAMIDOING?!?!?!?!

Glad you guys dig the video! We worked REALLY hard at it... well, not that it was hard to put it together... but you put Chris and I in front of a camera... with a script? Let's just say between hardware snafus and blown lines this took the better part of two days. :P

At least the outtakes are hilarious.... no, you can't see them. :P

Great video guys. I will keep the ustream video on all day while I work on programming homework and get in as much gaming as I can.
