Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Texas Rangers lefty C.J. Wilson is already Major League Baseball's best blogger. Now, he insists he's Major League Baseball's Guitar Hero. Unfair Park just got a press release from the Rangers, in which Wilson throws out this challenge: Thirty-two contestants will get the opportunity to strap it on against Wilson, Kameron Loe, Jason Botts and Wes Littleton in a Guitar Hero tournament next Monday at the House of Blues. The prize -- and I guess you could call it that, despite Texas being 194 games out of first -- will be a suite to an upcoming Rangers game.
You gotta win a slot to play; Live 105.3 is the co-sponsor of the event, and you'll need to tune in before you virtually tune up. It'll be a bracket-style competition, with the four top finishers getting a chance to face off against the Rangers' fearsome foursome. --Robert Wilonsky
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
