Revision as of 20:24, 4 September 2016
The Homestar Runner 20th Anniversary Show was an event at Venkman's, a dining venue in Atlanta. The first show was on Friday, September 2, 2016, at 10:00 PM ET, the weekend of Dragon Con, with a second show in the same location on Friday, October 7, 2016, at 10:00 PM ET. It was first announced on @StrongBadActual on July 21 and later mentioned on homestarrunner.com in a main page message. It is a live show celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the Original Book from 1996 and the introduction of the Homestar Runner body of work.
Description
The show featured Matt Chapman performing live music while being backed by Yacht Rock Revue. Some of the music performances included video content, and old toons were shown, and a new toon, an animated version of Homestar Runner Goes for the Gold!, was debuted. There were also puppets. Some people dressed up as characters from the Homestar Runner body of work.
The first half was mostly Strong Bad songs, while the second half was mostly Limozeen, with a Taranchula song in the middle. Videos were playing during the first half of the show, showing the music videos for songs such as Rap Song, 2 Many Knives, and Fish Eye Lens in the background, while they were being performed on-stage. A brand-new cartoon was also shown. At some point, the video AV stopped working, so Matt Chapman started singing bread sing-alongs with Puppet Homestar Runner, who said that the songs had the power to fix AV problems. This eventually became a running gag. After the break, Limozeen played, and flicked Limozeen guitar picks into the audience. The picks were previously shown in a @StrongBadActual tweet. Towards the end, Matt invited Jamey Huggins, the person who thought of the name "Homestar Runner", to the stage to tell that story. Before performing the final song, Secret Song, Matt said that normally they'd have to wait 227 seconds before hearing it, like on Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits. At the end of the show, Matt said "Here's to twenty more years of making stupid stuff!", which was responded with a loud cheer from the audience.
