Hey everyone! Make sure to clear some time next Thursday at 9/6 PM est/pst for our first ever online live riffing! www.rifftrax.com/liveMike, Kevin & Bill will be riffing a brand new short live from RiffTrax HQ, and we'll be streaming it from our homepage via Ustream. You'll be able to watch it on the link above, and chat on the side during it and for a Q&A afterwards. Should be really fun, Ustream has some awesome technology (you may have used them to view the PUPPY CAM!) and we're excited to do what we hope will be the first of many live events on line, sine they aren't limited to San Francisco or Comic Con (there you go East Coasters!) Best of all, the new short "Self Conscious Guy" will be released right after the live riffing. So once again, RiffTrax Live Online, Thursday January 15th at 9 PM Eastern, 6 PM Pacific. Be There! www.rifftrax.com/liveTo re-emphasize, it's completely FREE! |

That's neat, I'd definitely check it out if it wasn't happening on a night I'm busy. Hope they do it again sometime. If it goes well I could see even cooler stuff happening in the future - maybe add some sort of moderated chat room for responses from the audience....many fans also have really quick wit  I suppose it would be a sort of laborious process, but the potential is there if timing could be worked out. But chats always have lag, I think people glancing down at a funny comment from another viewer would go over really well, even if the comment is a little late. Anyway, keep it up rifftrax, I've really gotten back into the trax lately  |

Thanks fanliorel. We'll definitely be doing more, hopefully on a night you can make it.
There will be a chat box on the side of the splash page during the event. We'll see how useful it is on Thursday.

This is certainly worthy of stickiness! Thanks for letting us know, Conor.

Went and programmed the event into my phone. Hopefully the internet won't crash when all the MSTies bombard the site at once!

Cool. I will make every attempt to be there. I loved the live RiffTrax at Comic Con last year, but that certainly isn't a trip I can make too often.

Looking forward to this, cheers Connor! Trying to work out the time difference as I'm working on Friday morning. Going by when I stay up for the baseball I think it may be around 2am. But hey, it's a one off!

I'm definitely on board for this, if I can get on. Will the server be able to handle the bombardment?

If Ustream held up during the Puppy Cam, they'll do fine with the our show.

Ooooh, could be pretty cool if it's moderated, though otherwise it could become spam central. I'm really excited to hear how this turns out. I bet it'll be great, and I hope they do it again soon! |

I'm at the crossroads. It's 1am here and I need to get up at 7 to go to work and it's still another hour until it starts. Shamefully I'm guessing if I miss this live I won't be able to see it anywhere. I'll definitely be downloading the recorded version of the short tomorrow though!

Uhh... how come everytime I try to post a message it says "You are not allowed to participate in this chatroom."
