This will be in Sunday’s Life & Arts Best Bets, but it wouldn’t hurt to
buy tickets in advance if you’re interested in going. This show of video game music (performed live) should be a fun time.
“Video Games Rock!” — Hosted by local game emporium Game Over Videogames, this lineup of classic video game soundtrack music, performed by several bands, features headliner The OneUps. The OneUps, from Fayetteville, Ark., are a veteran jazz/funk/hip hop group whose latest effort is called, “Super Mario Kart Album.” They’ll be joined by brentalfloss and The Cartridge Family, a comedy/music act featuring members of Austin’s Descendants of Erdrick, who will also be performing separately. For the Most Part and Man Factory fill out the rest of the bill. Of course, there’ll also be video game stations to play during the show. The Parish, 214-C East 6th St. All ages, doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets $10 in advance, $12 at the door, www.theparishaustin.com, 473-8381.
