Are you ready for a Nerdy Valentines Day? http://bit.ly/WekHqK
Hank's w00tstock performance:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_iTWh...

In which Hank Raps about w00tstock. If you can't understand all of the lyrics, they're below.

This may have been the second oddest weekend of my life
I perused portland real-estate with a mythbuster's wife
on an iPad owned by adam savage
yes you could say that my perception of reality was ravaged
But imagine, that wasn't even the weirdest bit
and you're gonna shirt a brick when you hear the rest of it
So sit down and listen to me rhythmically talk
about the weekend that I participated in w00tstock

Now I'm on the plane home I want to remember it
Hearing Adam Savage saying that he likes my music
And I've been listinin' to Frontalot, 200 tracks back to back
Which is probably why I wrote this song as a rap but
I hope whoever has 9D next doesn't gag
because I'm writing down these lyrics on the back of the barf bag

For me it began when I landed in Seattle at two o'clock
and then by three was talking with the king of nerd hip hop
MC Frontalot, as he's professionally known
could probably cure cancer with his headlamp and a microphone
Then Molly walked in with her adorable grin
and her boyfriend Chirs...and her assistant Kristen
two girls one uke, don't fear, it won't make you puke
unless you're easily nauseated by things abnormally cute
And I felt like I was losing control of my brain
because the drummer of the Presidents of the USA
Was hanging with me making jokes telling me to be strong
Like he'd jumped straight out of my radio and into my song
And then my friend stephen toulouse walked by
He decides who lives and dies on xbox live
He's the guy with the ban hammer on the largest gaming platform
And we were all brought here by messers paul and storm
Who were in good form and bought pizza I was eatin'
when I learned just how nerdy was the nerd Wil Wheaton
He was adorably excited, jumping up and down
His smile was the inverse function of a frown
taken to the one thousand twenty forth power
I did my best not to fangirl for the whole next hour
And then I was on the stage, ostensibly earning my wage
Picard had thrown me into over drive and said "engage"

And my cheeks hurt, from the laughing, it was so much freaking fun
Savage, Fraction, Frontalot and Loading Ready Run
And then done. We were up there taking our bow
Like wow, the crowd so loud I could not understand how
this had happened to me, I mean I'm Just another geek
But this last week had had a freaking unique streak.
Just a couple days ago the world was planting me trees
and now I'm in front of a thousand geeks living my dreams.
I'm prepared to accept this as the pinnacle of my career
I don't mind if it's all downhill from here
because here is a pretty good place to be downhill from
there's an awful lot of hill there before you hit the bottom

And in the morning, my goodness, I saw that Wil Wheaton
Had pulled out his blackberry and done some tweetin
He told tweeted I killed it and from what he could hear
my set, of all of those at w00tstock, got the biggest cheer
I'm not really concerned about whether this is true or not
It just makes me pretty grateful there is a w00tstock

Yeah....

    Hank is a better rapper than any professional rapper. But then again, I don't like rap, unless it's nerdy rap like Hank! =)

    Huh, I was actually thinking recently about how popular Hank's performances would be at w00tstock, and here I am, watching this video and thinking about how satisfying that, yes, good, Hank has performed at w00tstock before.

    I'm going to be completely honest with you, Hank. I've always wished you would do "harder" music, even just a few songs. I got a little worried when I watched the DFTBA video, but having seen this (which was awesome), I think the only problem I had with DFTBA was the video part. You seemed like you were going for the tough gangsta-yo look, and it kinda made my brain hurt. This one, you're basically just you doing your thing. I like it.

    Please forgive any incoherance due to insomnia ^.^
