Hey everybody.
My friends and I (all of whom were on team 166) are hosting a Rock Band Marathon starting Friday, August 1st at 3:00PM that will continue all the way until Sunday, August 3rd.
There were be a live stream running the entire time of our group playing Rock Band for 48 hours straight.
Why, you might ask? Child's Play is a charity organization founded to help raise money for children's hospitals across the US. Up until August 4th we are accepting donations. All of which go to the Child's Play organization.
How can you help? You can visit
our marathon website and donate to Child's Play. Any small amount of money is greatly appreciated. You can spread the word and get friends to donate. You can also register on our forums and request songs to be played!
We'll have a song list up very soon.
Why are we doing this? We are doing this to raise money for Child's Play while having some fun doing it. Also, the idea of coming up with an idea, planning it, creating a website for it, advertising it, and executing it is incredibly thrilling.
Also, if you have a copy of Rock Band and an X-box Live account, there's a possibility that you will be able to play with us or challenge one of our band members. I will take anyone at guitar.
The website will be updated with more information about the feed itself in the coming weeks. There's already a little bit of information, including a link to information about the event that inspired it all. The Super Mario Marathon.

So, spread the word! The more money collected the better!
