Fundraiser For Katrina Victims - Hours Of Playing "MmmBop" By Hanson

[matcom]

<snip>

NEW YORK -- Hanson is matching a school's charity fundraiser after endless hours of playing the pop group's hit "MmmBop."

Delone Catholic High School in McSherrystown, Pa., held a "Stop The Bop" campaign to raise money for victims of Hurricane Katrina.

They refused to stop playing "MmmBop" over the school PA system until their goal was reached.

Once they raised $3,505.95, "MmmBop" stopped.

That could be insulting to the group, or it could be flattering.

And Hanson is taking it as a compliment.

The brother trio matched their donation, plus gave every student in the school a copy of their new album, "Underneath."

Actually, it's kind of a fun mindless cheerful song and hardly in a bad way. I've got the CD too... :yoiks: But Hanson matching the donation is twice as cool.
