The Make-A-Wish foundation, in conjunction with a
slew of sponsors, will be holding a
Rock Band competition in Vancouver, Canada, starting Oct. 4. The $100 entry fee, along with pre-purchase tickets for the finals at the Roxy Nightclub, go straight to the Make-A-Wish foundation. The first round of the competition will be held at the EA studios located right outside of Vancouver in
Burnaby. From that event, the five finalist bands from each of the four divisions will then compete at the Roxy Nightclub on November 6 for prizes.
There are four divisions for competitors to
register their groups: Competitive, Social, Corporate and 18 & Under. There are currently no details about prizes, but it
sounds like a cool charity event. Isn't that enough?

Corporate teams? Hmmm....I wonder if I could find 3 other people who play the game well enough around here.
I work in software development. It's a nerd breeding ground.

It's $100 CDN that would be Canadian money which means it's a little more than 100 for people in the US thanks to the weakness of the dollar.
