It had been Billy Idol but the following evening, Google I/O attendees could Rebel Yell the early evening away at 111 Minna.
It combined the announcement of the Best App Ever Android Awards - sponsored by iDreamSky - and Pocket Gamer's Google I/O networking party - sponsored by Immersion and NativeX.
As usual, the best of the best attended the events, eager to see the unveiling of the winners of the illustrious Best App Ever Award categories, while mingling with the crème de la crème of the mobile industry over a few drinks much deserved drinks.
