PREPARE TO BE ROCKED!!!

Why? ‘Cause The Sacred Fools Theater Co. is throwing A
GUITAR HERO TOURNAMENT AND PARTY!!!!!!

If you don’t know what GUITAR HERO is, it’s an insanely fun video
game not unlike Dance Dance Revolution, except instead of dancing -
YOU ARE PLAYING GUITAR!!!

Some of the best gamers in the city will be competing head-to-head
on the Sacred Fools stage, with the game projected on the back wall
and the crankin' rock songs blasting through our theater speakers!

YET YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE AMAZING AT GUITAR HERO TO HAVE
AN AMAZING TIME!!!!

You’ll have fun AND help a worthy cause - all proceeds go to the award winning Sacred Fools Theater Company!  (Yeah, that's us.)

Hope to see you there!


Even the President and Vice President love Guitar Hero!

NOTES AFTER THE FIRST TOURNAMENT
(Revised again, 5/15, 12:30am):


Wow, that was crazy!


So apparently, we're told, we were the FIRST EVER Guitar Hero II tournament in Los Angeles!  Can that be right?  The house was packed with die hard gamers, Sacred Fools, and folks who were just plain curious.  Ten-year-old Ellis Sanchez's family drove him down from San Francisco just to compete - and he ROCKED the joint!  What showmanship!  He didn't win the night, but he sure won everyone's hearts!  And congratulations to winner Tom Prag, a high school junior from Claremont who won what his proud papa, Jay, says was also HIS first-ever tournament!

And NPR came to cover the event.  You thought they only covered classical musicians and macrame.  But no.

But the most important thing is, everyone had a great time, and seemed to want to do it again.  So will we?  SIGNS POINT TO "YES!"

But we don't know when yet.  So if you missed that big red notice up top, chekkit out.  Join the Sacred Fools Guitar Hero mailing list, and we'll let you know when the next one is.  Okay?  Okay!
