Alicia and I caught up with the Eric Rice Roadshow in San Francisco last week. Just a week after BlogHer, I got to see Eric, Rene, Shawn, Chris and Schlomo again and we got to meet Eric's cohorts Josh and Tony.
The roadshow was great. Alicia and Rene drew portraits on napkins, while a small band played upstairs in Schlomo's bar. Photographers and videoheads were running around snapping pics and vids of the band and everything else (Eric has the coolest equipment by far - great video and audio).
I really liked this setting as it was very small and laid back, giving a chance for newbies like Alicia and I to get to hang, learn and play with others who are interested in creating, sharing and collaborating on different forms of new media.
So, what do vloggers and podcasters and creatives do after a roadshow meetup? Go out for breakfast at 1am of, of course. We all went over to a great little dinner over on Church Street (near Market, I think). Then back outside for a smoke break and some parting last words.
Here's a great little moment (well, about two minutes) where Shawn, Rene and Eric are talking about videoblogging workshops, videobloggers with unusal names (Have you ever noticed that both Eric Rice and Zadi Diaz have first and last names that use the same letters?) Strange. I never noticed that before.
I love the excitement in Shawn's voice as he talks about teaching videoblogging related workshops. So many videobloggers love to participate in meetups, workshops and presentations. It's great.
