Friend Appears on Don't Forget the Lyrics

A good friend of mine flew out to Hollywood months ago to appear on the Fox game show, Don't Forget the Lyrics. He wasn't the main contestant, but a "backup singer," which means he can be called upon to help. Think lifeline from Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.

The show finally aired this past Thursday and our Saturday night gaming group sat down to watch it last night. It was a trip! Craig was called upon to help early in the show. I can't remember the name of the song, but the lyric he helped clear up was "in the sun." He then sang the song again with his contestant friend. When the band stopped playing, Craig kept belting out the song! He stepped forward and proceeded to give his own little concert! It was equal parts surreal and entertaining.

Craig helped his friend with that song, but ultimately Marcus walked away with $25,000 (only). Fox provides a ton of on demand links for their shows, but not for DFtL.

Otherwise, you too could see the Craigmeister steal the show.
