From the Journal-News:
As the ninth annual Stamp Out Cancer fundraiser approaches, this year’s celebrity lip sync teams were officially announced at an open house event on Sunday afternoon, Nov. 24, at Opera House Brewing Company in downtown Hillsboro.
The four teams had a chance to meet and greet one another, as well as the members of the Stamp Out Cancer Committee.
This year’s teams competing in the fundraiser are Kenny and Ashley Ryker of Litchfield, Chris and Stephanie Short of Litchfield, Mandy Wessell of Hillsboro and Tisha Morris of Nokomis and Jessica Furness and Aaron Duff of Hillsboro.
Stamp Out Cancer will be held on Saturday evening, Jan. 26, beginning at 6 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Hall in Taylor Springs. In addition to the lip sync acts and silent auction, the St. Louis-based band, Dirty Muggs, will take center stage for some live entertainment.
Dirty Muggs is a high energy choreographic machine and the creative act formed by a talented group of entertainers who have world class and Hall of Fame experience. Lead guitarist and band founder, Dee Dee “Muggs” James has played world tours with George Clinton’s Parliament-Funkadelics with Bootsy Collins, as well as Color Me Bad and Paula Abdul.
The band enjoys playing St. Louis and the Midwest’s top nightclubs, festivals, corporate parties and charity events, including Nelly’s Black and White Ball. The Dirty Muggs were named St. Louis Magazine’s A-List Party Band and StL Post Dispatch GO Magazine’s Best Cover Band of 2014.
