Catalyst Dallas Highlights

May 23rd, 2011 - Uncategorized - 3 Comments »

Here are a few of my favorite moments from Catalyst Dallas:

1. Getting pegged with a football (while blindfolded) by Tony Romo. In the nipple. Still bruised. Video coming soon.


2. Tripp’s freestyle rap battle with Rev Run. If you haven’t seen the video already, check it out here.

3. A new batch of 5 Questions You’ve Never Been Asked. First 3: Jon Acuff, Mike Foster, and Ken Coleman. I can’t remember why we’re laughing in this picture. I don’t recall a single moment of laughter.

4. Performance by Seryn. The entire time we were planning the event, I thought Seryn was some lady. I was wrong. I’m terrible at explaining music/bands, so just watch this. Their album is $7.99 on Amazon right now.

5. Hanging out with Tyler Tarver for about 8 total minutes. Not sure why, but one of the funniest moments of the week for me was when he handed me his card. Of course, I was expecting a business card. He handed me an ’88 Donruss Doug Jones.

6. The Russian Bar Trio (aka Trampobeam artists). You may have seen them on America’s Got Talent before. They’re unbelievable.

7. Hosting with Chris Seay. Love that guy.

8. Hanging out with Sean Algaier again. We actually got to chat for a while this time around. There’s a lot more to that guy than the fact that he was on The Biggest Loser. Cool stuff going on in his life. Check him out on Twitter.

9. Our Smilebooth session. Smilebooth is kind of like a photo booth, but 9 billion times better. All the photos you take show up on an iPad immediately, and you can email or text them to yourself for free. Here is their site.

And if you haven’t seen our wrap up video yet, you can watch it here. We don’t mean to brag, but no video has ever encapsulated the essence of an event like this video did.

The good pictures above (6, 7) were taken by Scott Wade, posted to Facebook, and shamelessly stolen by me. Take a look at the rest of his amazing work here.

    that is the most perfectly squared photo I've ever seen taken. put that on your resume for Beckett.

  • Trevor Davis

    Would love to watch the Man in the Mirror karaoke video again. Any way to get a hold of that?

    I would have added Chris Seay’s reaction to Snap Pops. Classic.
