Rock(fish) the Vote

The AMI is a big supporter of music - local, national, live, studio, Mexican, rap, rock, Irish, blind musicians, dead ones, yabba, dabba doo.

Virginia Commonwealth University, one of the finest universities in the U.S., is planning a music festival to honor its 40th anniversary. The school has decided to use a popular vote to determine  which music acts will play, and with 225 bands in the running, the competition is stiff. Ron Jeremy stiff. 

One band in the running is Kurt Stemhagen's "Rockfish Willie." And while Kurt is not a mustached American, as he suffers from Bare Upper Lip Disorder (BULD), he is an avid supporter of the lip sweater.  

The contest ends Sept. 5, and we ask that you, the 17.2 readers of the AMI blog, vote for Rockfish Willie here. To hear Rockfish's fashionable stylings, you can listen to clips of some of the band's  original music here.

Carry on.

About afroman

The name “Abe Froman” is most commonly recognized as the ubiquitous and unseen character who’s identity is briefly assumed by actor Matthew Broderick in the film “Ferris Beuller’s Day Off.” However, Abraham Froman is much more. Dr. Froman, a Capricorn, began his career with AMI as an intern, and after receiving his certification in nuclear mustacheology in 2006, transitioned his role into the organization’s Director of Logistical Intelligence, focusing on research, government relations, intelligence gathering, grass roots advocacy, and song writing. On October 25, 2008, he will ascend to the role of Chief Executive Officer. “I am honored to assume the chair held by Drs. Snor and Perlut previously,” Froman said. “The Mustached American people need leadership, and I pledge that AMI, under my stewardship, will continue to provide it at a time when it is so desperately needed.” Dr. Froman has said that his future goals for AMI are to create satellite campus’s overseas and to develop an annual event, to be known as "The Million Mustache March," each year in St. Louis, concluding under the world’s largest mustache – St. Louis’ Gateway Arch. Froman formerly lived in the Chicago area where he ran a museum dedicated to the "Karate Kid" series of films starring the indefatigable Pat Morita. As Abe likes to say, "One can never tire of Pat Morita." Dr. Froman is also a periodic contributor to joesportsfan.com.
