'Idol' Loser William Hung to Tour with Howard Dean
by Scott Ott

(2004-02-22) -- It's a promoters dream to match the two hottest performance artists on one stage, and arenas nationwide are already selling out for the William Hung-Howard Dean She Bangs-- Yeaggh! tour.

Mr. Hung, whose American Idol audition video has inspired civil engineers worldwide to pursue musical careers, has teamed up with former Democrat presidential candidate Howard Dean, whose Iowa caucus concession speech (dubbed "I Have a Scream") tops Internet search engine queries.

"It's a dream," said an unnamed spokesman for the Hung-Dean Tour, "They both entered contests which they had no hope of winning, and they have each inspired a generation."

At a tour launch news conference, Mr. Dean said, "We're going to Philadelphia, then to Boston, and Atlanta and Kansas City...and...well, you know the rest and I really have to save my pipes for the tour."

Mr. Hung added "We have no professional training of singing or dancing. We want to make music our living. We will give our best, and we will have no regrets."

Proceeds from the tour benefit the Howard Dean Unspecified Grassroots Movement Foundation.
