Last Saturday’s March of Madness: Bands on the Run! was so fun that we needed a whole week to recover from the event.

Next week we will be posting footage of the eight bands that played during the day-long, scavenger hunt/roaming music festival. Check back for footage of Skoal Kodiak at the Stone Arch Bridge Pavilion; Brother and Sister, Synchrocyclotron, and NOW in the Gesthsemane Church Sanctuary; and The Chosen Few at the Gesthsemane Ballroom.

The first installment is Mike Mictlan and Paper Tiger of Doomtree at the astroturf covered Parade Ice Stadium. Check it out.

The godfather of the March of Madness, Michael Gaughan (of Brother and Sister and Now), is already planning his next event (Michael mentioned gathering inspiration for the next scavenger hunt by watching Gleming the Cube and Thrashin’). Get on his mailing list to be the first to find out about the next scavenger hunt.

SYNCHROCYCLOTRON

I’m at a loss for words trying to describe yesterday’s scavenger hunt. Fun and awesome are two words I could use. Certainly, Michael Gaughan’s scavenger hunts have been some of the most unique in the Twin Cities, and yesterday was no different.

As a participant, I took quite a few photos. And so did a lot of other people. So I uploaded my photos to my Flickr account and created a group with the Walker’s Flickr account. If you took photos and are a Flickr user, add yourself to WACTAC group, then add your photos to the pool. Rather than just creating a group specifically for this event, I’m making it a bit more extensible down the road.

If you’re not a Flickr user, just drop a note in the comments here and I’ll link your photos in this post.

Edit: Now with youtube goodness:
