Who is DJ Helsing, you might ask? He's the Gaia staffer who run all of Gaia's Offline Events and gives aways all the awesome prizes during the random awesomeness, variety hour and even some times allows you to spin the Wheel at conventions, of course!
Though he looked cute and dorky at the panels and events, some people were amazed to find him transform into a real hottie at the Gaia sponsored AX dance! (We almost didn’t recognize him. xd ) And that is why I am making this thread. Well, that and I hung out with him and some friends on the Thursday after AX weekend and we discovered that he is an all around cool guy. He let me eat some of his pizza! blaugh
Why the name?
Because in the infamous video (linked above) DJ Helsing is dancing to “U + Ur Hand” by Pink. I also saw him dance to it at a club, and he gets so into it that I now giggle every time I hear the song on the radio (which is about thrice daily as we listen to Flight 26 at work, and they like playing songs thrice daily).

Dec 17th '08 If you haven't heard already, I'll post it here. A few days ago, Gaia laid off a number of employees, and our own DJ Helsing was one of the casualties. With luck, we'll still be seeing him at cons if not representing Gaia, at least showing off his DJ skills. He's done a lot for Gaia and its users, and he will be sorely missed. We still love you, Chris! (P.S. Ladies, he is still single, and if he no longer represents Gaia, that makes him fair game. Just wanted to throw that out there. wink )
