This is my nephew, Chris Curry. He is an INCREDIBLE guitarist and is making a name for himself in the Winnipeg music scene.


However, this past weekend he was making his mark as a guitar hero. Participants in a charity event, Heroes for Child Find, had to raise funds in order to be entered into a Guitar Hero competition. Chris won, completely blowing my claim that REAL guitarists are terrible at GH. And he's not grandstanding with this behind-the-head move. He was competing against a younger kid and thought this would make it fair (along with the broken finger).
The next level of competition will see him on the big screen at centre field at a Blue Bombers game on July 11th. Hey, halftime at a CFL game is true fame in Canada. Nice kid, great guitarist!
