To any Sleuths hailing in the Greater Chicago area:

I have advanced to the Finals of an annual karaoke contest held by Suburban Nitelife Magazine. On Friday, June 2nd, I will be competing among 40 of the most entertaining singers in the area to win a grand prize of $2,500 cash and a vacation for 2.

Some of you know that I recently got married to fellow Sleuther Kagome_70, and that our son Christopher is due in August. This prize would give us both a much-needed honeymoon and a leg up in preparing for our first child.

To that end, I ask ANY and ALL Sleuths near Chicago to attend the Finals and support my performance. Audience response is a large percentage of the scoring system, and I am hoping to get about 50 people in the crowd, including my friends and family.

The Finals are Friday, June 2nd, starting approx. 7 PM, at the Pyramid Club in Addison. Anyone interested and able to be there please PM me for more detailed information.

PS. We just got into the new house and after a month without internet, Kagome and I are BACK! :)

It's the fascinating times in which we live, crunch. I, too, never thought I'd live to see the holy trifecta of hotness.

But as a reminder as to what this thread is about: everyone go to Chicago on Friday.

Serges will pay your travel expenses up to $2,000 per person. And all your drinks.

This could just be a rumour though...

I want to thank everyone for their support over the last few days. Regretfully, I must announce that I did not win the competition tonight... I ended up placing somewhere between 13th and 20th out of 41 of the best entertainers in the greater Chicagoland area. However, it was a wonderful show, I had a great time, and proved to myself that I could keep pace with some amazing singers.

Special thanks go to KenB, who dedicated his night to cheering me on, although we had never met prior to tonight. He is a wonderful gentleman, both in Sleuthville and in real life, and I appreciate his support especially.

I did record my performance on video, and as soon as I figure out how to upload it to my site, I will link to it so that anyone who couldn't be there has an opportunity to see what all the fuss was about.

Again, thanks to everyone for cheering me on, both in person and in spirit.
