United States
Sorry guys. I tried real hard. Maybe next time!
Hey guys, I'm Kareshi. I live in America. I did piano and gameplay at CGDQ, AGDQ, and Best of NES. I hold current and former world records in Ghosts 'N Goblins, Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts, Jaws, Monster Party, and North & South. I also play lots of piano besides what I've done at the marathons. (And I speak some Norwegian and German.)
I would love to come to ESA for a few days and play for all you guys and get to know you better. But, I do need some help. I don't like asking for money directly, so I made an album with my favorite piano covers. For only $7 you'll be treated to an hour of awesome and difficult NES covers, Iron Maiden, Beethoven, and lumberjacks. Check it out here and please understand -I can't get there without your support.- If I make it, each supporter gets a personal high-five.
I will also occassionally do piano broadcasts from Twitch and will take requests from the album as well as anything else I can play, so please follow!- http://www.twitch.tv/the_kareshi
And a basic list of piano repertoire I'd be willing to play on my broadcast or at ESA- Final Fantasy 6 (about 70% of the soundtrack) all of NES Metroid, Castlevania 1 & 2, good amount of Castlevania 3, Battletoads, Ghosts 'N Goblins, Monster Party, Super Mario Bros 1, 2, 3, Mega Man 2, Ninja Gaiden, Dragon Warrior, Rygar, Friday the 13th, Jaws, Uninvited, and a few from Tetris, Zelda, Double Dragon 1 & 2, Ikari Warriors 2, Tiger Heli, Little Nemo, uhhh some more that I can't remember right now.
Also tons of classical stuff by Chopin, Liszt, Beethoven, guys like that.
Thank you for your time. <3
Do you have a sustain pedal? I can bring one if needed.
Awesome! Would you be so kind as to describe the model so I can better prepare? 88 keys, weighted action, sustain pedal, sturdy base, that kind of stuff?
If I can work out the trip, I would love to play some piano to entertain anyone attending, or maybe even do some on the broadcast. Is there an available piano at the venue?
