Mega Man, mega man and mega band = good video

Well, this is a bit special. A speedrun of Mega Man II would be awesome enough in itself, especially in front of a live audience. But to do it while a band plays the game's soundtrack with guitars, drums and bass? That's just something else. This is the wonderful reality of Bit Brigade (the band) and Noah McCarthy (the man) performing live. And, as luck would have it, it's been captured on video for your eyes and ears to enjoy:

There isn't much to say aside from congratulations to all involved. Moments like this don't happen very often. Check out Bit Brigade's website here.

Above: Encore! No, really - the tape wasn't recording. Can you do it again, please?
