The Rake Magazine

Have you always dreamed of being a rock star, but somehow life kept getting in the way? Ready to Rock! wants to give you a second chance "to be the rock star you know you are!" Minnesota-born stand-up comic and political satirists Lizz Winstead has a slew of admirable credits to her name, not the least of which is co-creating The Daily Show. Now, she's in Minnesota (and traveling across the country) looking to cast a new music-oriented show for Fuse music television. Ready 2 Rock is looking for guys over 40, probably settled into a comfortable job, that have never gotten over having to give up the dream of being a rock star.
