Hi. Below is an announcement about an event at which
I'll be performing with Power Point.

I'll be letting people know about my proven methods of
training for American Idol. Also, while I'm not
currently allowed to publish the results of the
auditions (which means I can't yet post an update to
my blog about how mine went), I can drop some serious
hints at this event, for those of you who've been
following my progress…

A reminder of the URL for my training blog (includes a
link to my sneaky behind the scenes moblog):

The New York Times article about this project:

And the event details are below. Looks like a good
event!
