One of my biggest regrets at PAX East was not having enough time to interview people from Harmonix for this segment (sorry, @HMXHenry). Even though I was in Boston for about 4 days, I never really got down to “work” until the last day. I easily burned through two batteries and a nearly a 16gb memory card of images and video. Hopefully I can chat with more people at E3.

One of the people I was lucky enough to stop and chat with before my time in Boston ended was Helen, AKA HMXHellion. Most of you are probably most familiar with her through her band Tijuana Sweetheart (formerly known as Vagiant), featured in Rock Band, “Seven,” and Guitar Hero 2, “FTK.” Tijuana Sweetheart just made their RBN debut with “Trash Candy,” and has two more songs, “Sticks and Stones” and my personal fave “No Mercy,” on the way. Check out the band, the songs listed above, and more on their Myspace page. I wasn’t expecting to have a chance to talk with her, but I was able to grab her for a few minutes and chat a little about herself and what it’s like to work at Harmonix, so check out the video below!

Oh, and I completely agree with Boston’s Weekly Dig newspaper… “Helen is cool as tits!”

Thanks, Helen!
