Cena is very serious about flying to NY to help run the event. Follow the link and watch his video (it's only 3 minutes long!) for more details.

AFAIK only NY is having a tournament, the other two are free play only. I'll post here if I hear anything different. _________________

I'll be there too - it's only like a 5 min drive from my house. I'm guessing my roommates and stuff might come along too _________________

Hey if anyone needs a bass player for the NYC night please let me know. My other bandmates live too far away to attend.
My resume is Bass Player and Backup Vocalist for XBL live Band DrunknHammock.
Footage of my live band play on my private RB party. I'm the guy with the shirt. Was on expert and got 99% on that track while jumping around.

Thanks for the info Miguel . Since it seems that we have to be smart about our song choices, my band would like to call dibs on "Foreplay / Longtime". We have a great idea/setup for it and we'll definitely be there early so that's why we're calling dibs _________________
