DAY 1: Hot Import Nights Seattle

***EDIT*** I just reorganized the post from Seattle so that it is in chronological order.

After a long night of celebrating at Onyx & Thin, Tristan and I both missed our 6AM flight to Seattle to catch up on some sleep. We didn't leave for Seattle until 1PM. It was my first time going to Seattle. The only thing I've heard about Seattle was that it always rains, but luckily for us it was beautiful clear sky's the entire time we were there.

The reason why I was going out to Seattle was to meet up with Indo (HIN Executive) for Hot Import Nights Seattle to film for both HIN City TV, DanceTag.TV, and to just hang out with Kaba Modern and everyone else.

Tristan and I landed in Seattle at 6PM. We headed straight to the hotel to pick up our equipment and drop off our bags before making our way to Qwest Field for the show.

We meed up with Indo and Kaba Modern before making out way into the venue.
I basically followed Kaba Modern around, recorded some backstage footage, and conducted a few interviews with the crew.  Thanks again Kaba!

Look out for the footage with Kaba Modern on DanceTag.TV and HINcity.TV coming soon.  I'll keep you posted!

On our way to the Team Menace booth for Kaba Modern's meet and greet, I ran into the best female gamer: Melissa Reign

Melissa just beat Metal Gear Solid 4 on PS3... Damn!  Thats hot!  HAHA
The line...

Make sure you check out Yuri (Kaba Modern) and Taeko's (Fish n Chicks) upcoming project: The Yuri and Taeko Show

Both ladies have joined forces to create an internet talk show.  They'll be covering behind the scenes and not so well known aspects of the entertainment industry.  They already have a few videos up so check it out!

Their website was designed by Invsible Ink (Jabbawockeez).
Melissa is a huge Kaba Modern fan!

After HIN, Tristan and I went back to the hotel to go eat with Kaba.  Yuri's probably wondering what's on Tristan's shoes... HAHA.  If you look closely you'll see that he has eyes on his shoes.
Dragonfish for dinner... 

Kaba headed back to the hotel because they had an early flight back to Las Vegas for a performance at Hip Hop International, so Tristan and I headed to the official HIN After Party at Show Box.

Crackin'!

After the club, Indo introduced me to the Seattle Dog, which comes with creme cheese and sriracha.  I was a bit of a skeptic at first but it was delicious!!!
Perfect way to end the night!
