FIRST Finale Possibilites

They did that back in 2007 and it flopped because they were forced to start playing as the doors to the team party opened. This would have been all good, except Einstein hadn't finished yet. The rush was because they couldn't let the schedule slip (apparently the hypnotist started early and brainwashed the event staff). So, the majority of their show was for the staff manning the buffet lines and a few people that thought the team party was more important than catching the finals matches.

I was so sad when that happened. Sad for DSKB and for the people who would have had a blast interacting with DSKB, dancing, singing, or just bouncing up and down to the music, having fun.

Help me! Who is DSKB?

I think the Blue Man Group would have been some great entertainment too.

Blue Man Group performed at the Boston regional at least once (possibly twice).

It would be neat if they were to wrap up the Talent Show as they've been known to do at IRI. That would be a treat.

If only there were some forum that the band members belonged to where they might stumble upon a post like this.

I know a roadie for the DSK band, and he says that they are working on a killer show for this year's IRI (July 22-23). They are currently testing out this show on a Scandinavian tour, where I hear that they are trying out a new guitarist.

Sadly, there will be no DSK in St. Louis.

Hmmmmmmmm..... being a roadie for DSK would either be the best job in the world or the worst job in the world. I can't decide.

*ears perk up* new guitarist... hm...

Gary, being their roadie would rock. Loudly. With bad hair.

The FIRST Finale link that was previously inactive on the Championship page has been replaced today with a FIRST CAFÉ: Food & Friends link.
