Tony Snow Plays the Flute Will that be enough to win a battle of the bands at the National Press Club? By Kim Masters Updated Friday, May 11, 2007, at 12:06 PM ET Friday, May 11, 2007

Tony Snow Rocking the Boat: A couple of weeks ago, the New York Times said it would pull out of events such as the White House Correspondents' Dinner and the Gridiron Club comedy night to avoid the appearance that the press is the administration's drooling lap dog.

Many in the press said that the Times policy was just foolishness. And now there's another temptation for the members of the fourth estate in the form of an invitation from the National Press Club in D.C.:

Please ... reserve your tickets for our May 14 'battle of the bands' between Bob Schieffer and Honky Tonk Confidential and Tony Snow and his band, Beats Workin.'

I just learned of this musical competition to be held at the National Press Club tomorrow. [Monday]

[FOXFANVOX]

Hey, you too. Don’t know if you want to run with this or not. I am still amazed I managed to get it posted.

[Bahbah]

How delightful.

Any doubt Tony’s band will win. Didn’t think so.

And congrats to you, FOXY. Nicely done!

[OKIEDOC]

Why would anyone care if the Times or any news group shows up.

Personally I don't trust anyone in the MSN to tell me the truth.

Doesn’t C-span cover the Press Club events sometimes. Any chance?

“What’s Bob Schieffer gonna play ??”

The colostomy bag.

[FOXFANVOX]

Good thought. I’ll check it out tomorrow.

[defconw]

Of course Tony’s band will win.

[Bahbah]

deffie! How are you guys doing?

Do you like the frozen north?

[FOXFANVOX]

OK, Def, have you had enuff of marriage? Is it time to return to the SnowFlake fold? [It’s been over two weeks after all...a lifetime in Hollywood terms.]

BTW: There are rumors Cibco is an old fashioned Mormon and has several other wives. Any truth to that rumor?

Hi, Bah. Got a nice note from Defcon. She is beyond happy. One small snag: she is unable to wrestle the TV remote from Cibco’s iron grip. Other than that, she is ecstatic.

[Bahbah]

Thanks for the update, FOXY.

I am so happy for the both of them.
