Oh, sweet baby Jesus. We just received the Best. Press. Release. Ever. Why come? Because it contains the following sentence: "Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert and Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes will compete performing a Guitar Hero song to kick off 24-hours of jam sessions on May 16 at 2:30 p.m." Blah blah blah, fund-raiser, blah blah blah, something good for the kids, blah blah blah. Registration form and further info here.
But, really, I still can't get past, "Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert and Blockbuster CEO Jim Keyes will compete performing a Guitar Hero song to kick off 24-hours of jam sessions on May 16 at 2:30 p.m." Now you know where to find us Friday. Till then, we're trying to figure out which song off GH3 is best suited for Mayor Tom. "Bulls on Parade," maybe? Nah. Lil' help? --Robert Wilonsky
