Ypsi: Event

Brian Robb’s East-Cross.com blog promotes this weekend’s Ypsilanti Heritage Festival, noting in particular its first-ever Guitar Hero World Championship. And if you’ve never heard of Guitar Hero, be prepared for a smack-down: “I mean, I don’t want to use the played-out cliche ‘Do you live under a rock?’, but seriously, do you live under a rock or something? My sister won’t even let her kids watch television or eat processed sugar, but even they know how to shred.” The festival, now in its 30th year, runs from Aug. 15-17. [Source]
