Let it not be said that the east coast gets all the good VGM events. This weekend in San Jose, Rockage has returned for three days of gaming, music and fun.
Rockage: San Jose is a celebration of indie music & retro gaming. Rockage is more than just an annual event- we support indie musicians and gaming culture on the West Coast year-round.
Much like MAGFest (and a nice precursor to MAGWest later this year), Rockage features tons of retro and indie gaming, but also local VGM bands, artists and composers to rock out to while you attend the event. This year’s lineup includes two performances by FTL: Faster Than Light composer Ben Prunty, who had a killer set at the MAGFest Jamspace at PAX South recently.
The event will be Friday through Sunday at the AFKgg Gamer Lounge in San Jose, with free admission for all. You can nab more ongoing information on their Facebook and Twitter.

Is Eric Fanali still involved in Rockage?
I had heard he gave the festival to another group after it came out that he had sexually abused a 16 year old but he currently works at AFK Lounge where the event is hosted.

I can’t speak to the allegations, but I am told he is still involved in the background to some capacity.
