Weekend Happenings

I'm still not totally "well," probably because I celebrated being halfway well by smoking too many cigarettes yesterday. Hopefully I can keep it together for a big weekend:

Friday - Silent Disco. Thinking this won't suck.

Saturday - The Big Event at the Bike. Another week, another big live buyin just down the freeway. It's a $5K buyin that starts tomorrow in Bell Gardens, CA.

Sunday - PokerStars is celebrating the 5th Anniversary of the Sunday Million on March 6th 2011. I guess I was playing this $215 buyin tournament before it was named the "Sunday Million!"

Anyway, the biggest online weekly tournament in history is being injected with some tiger blood this weekend, and the special anniversary edition features a guaranteed prize pool of $5M with over $1,000,000 going to the winner. (Second place should get around $600K). PokerStars is also kicking down a Lamborghini Gallardo for the winner.


WFMU: The 2011 WFMU Marathon is in progress. Tonight, March 4th, the legendary band from Hoboken, Yo La Tengo, known for their diverse cover-ability, will be taking requests for live cover songs on Pseu Braun's show from 9PM-12AM EST. For $100, they might play your song! I'm pledging and requesting "Love Minus Zero/No Limit" by Bob Dylan.

The WFMU fundraiser goes until next Sunday, March 13th. You can use the pledge box below to help support free-form, listener-supported radio and get lots of cool stuff in return:
