Fish McGill: Artist, designer, expert. Get an inside scoop on the company that created "Rock Band" from Harmonix-er Fish McGill, as well as his own personal unique artistic process and the inspiration behind it. You've seen his work at rockband.com, Johnny Cupcake tees, MassArt, and in Rock Band 2, now meet him and learn how he goes from initial sketch to final piece. So grab your sketchbook, pick out your favorite song and join us for what will be an inspirational (and rockin'!) night. And if you haven't seen Fish's work, check out his website for a peak into his head: www.fishmcgill.com
