Viagra online without prescription: fear Not.  Our Guitar Hero World Tour Competition, Smell the Glove, is back!  Genre X will be opening the doors of the lovely Oak Park Public Library to Guitar Hero enthusiasts everywhere for this after hours event on Saturday, February 6.  Teams of four are needed to compete so if you have a merry band of players who would like to be part of the action, we’re looking for you!  Just read the complete rules & regulations for all the nitty gritty details & register your team by Friday, February 5.  After all, there will be prizes.

Not particularly skilled in playing remote control guitars?  Audience members are welcome, too - we certainly wouldn’t want the mock rock bands playing to an empty house, would we?  If this sounds enticing, pledge your allegiance to the event on facebook so we can look forward to seeing your enthusiastic faces.

We are thoroughly excited to invite you to our next genre x after hours program, Smell the Glove: A Guitar Hero World Tour Competition.  In celebration of American Library Association’s National Gaming Day, Smell the Glove will give you the opportunity to take the stage and perform songs on plastic drums and guitars in front of a roaring audience, all while competing for prizes!

So if you’re a Guitar Hero enthusiast with mad skills, we’re looking for you!  Just round up a band of four and register following the instructions below the jump.  Or if you’re more comfortable playing on Easy (like me), then stop by with your friends and cheer for your favorite mock band.  After all, participants will be judged not only on their score and accuracy but also on showmanship & audience response.  And yes, costumes and personas are highly encouraged - take this as a cue to come dressed as the members of Spinal Tap, your favorite rock band, or to unveil a band uniform of your own design.

Join us at Oak Park Public Library on Saturday, November 14 when the show must go on, or more precisely at 7pm.  This event is 18+, advance registration is required to compete, refreshments will be served, and it most definitely “goes to 11“.

Although I’m sad to say it’s come and gone, I’m very happy to report that Hi-Lo Tech Night, genre X’s first after hours event for twenties and thirties, was a smashing success! We couldn’t have been more thrilled to welcome almost 60 people into the library for what turned out to be a very enjoyable evening of non-stop gaming.

Many thanks to everybody who came out ready to play; viagra prescription online.

It was also nice to see that the balance of Hi and Lo Tech games selected provided a little something for everyone; viagra prescription online.

The countdown’s on.  Only two days left until we launch our first genre X after hours library program.  As you know, we’ve chosen to build an evening of food and fun around the theme of Hi and Lo Tech gaming.  But if you’re still wondering what your gaming options are for this weekend’s event, here is a rundown of what we’ll be offering:

Hi-Tech - We will be offering open play for Mario Kart and Guitar Hero from 7-9.  At 9pm we will begin a Mario Kart tourney.  Once that is over we will resume open play, including more opportunity for some seriously big screen Guitar Hero action.

Lo-Tech - Wii’s not your thing?  No problem.  We will have a variety of board games on hand for you to play throughout the evening (see list below) so you can feel free to grab a friend and a board to start up the game of your choice at any point.  We’ll also have a Scrabble tournament beginning at 8pm for those who take their board games a little more seriously.

A sampling of the other board games we will have on deck:

• Apples to Apples
• Balderdash
• Battleship
• Clue
• Cranium
• Imaginiff
• Jenga
• Monopoly
• Trivial Pursuit
• Yahtzee

So come on out, grab some friends, and enjoy an evening of games & music, food & drink in our lovely library.  We’d love to see you there; viagra purchase.
