Default Re: do you ever just play rhythm games in public

I guess as a sports person and generally competitive soul, I love playing in front of other people. Since a majority of my friends don't do the rhythm gaming thing it's always fun to bring them to an arcade or play at a house party and wow people who haven't seen me play when everyone is drinking/chilling. Gets some fun reactions for a little bit, then people move on, such is life.

I love when people really get into it and request certain songs/genres as it pushes me to actually play well for the audience.

Craziest story is at one of my local arcades we have an ITG2 Cab and often-times an entire Jewish community will bring busloads of people to mostly take over the arcade, as well as some schools and camps during summers. I've had upwards of 50 kids-teens and their parents/guardians/counselors watching me at times in the past, it gets pretty insane but is always a good time.

Standard questions include:
"How long have you been playing?"
"Can you play the hardest song in the game?"
"Do you have THIS song?"
etc.

Good times.
