I am a karaoke ninja. I may have to hit DC at the end of the month.

Wait so if I buy the game, buy a video recorder, record a mainstream song, and get enough votes from American Idol fans (who are the kind of people that would only vote for someone if they are cool or attractive enough), I can actually go see people who will be forgotten after a few weeks, sing songs by other people whose songs will be forgotten after a few months? Sounds like a great deal!

No, you goto the mall (that is listed w/ date) and they record you where you sing a song from the new game which doesn't come out until the holidays and then the best from each region are put up for voting on the internet.
Sounds like fun though. Good thing Atlanta is in their tour list... I'll have to stop by.
