New York, NY (PRWEB) March 15, 2006 -- Legendary rocker, Eddie Money, has teamed up with Aleken Games in a joint promotion of Aleken’s Rock and Roll Triviologies™ game and Money’s new CD, Wanna Go Back.
While in town for the New York City dates of his nationwide concert tour, Money kicked off his endorsement of the game with an appearance at The International Toy Fair. Money drew a large crowd posing for photos and signing autographs as he fielded questions about the game, his new album, and his recent nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The promo with Aleken will continue throughout the Spring and Summer as part of Money’s Wanna Go Back nationwide concert tour. In addition, Money’s distinctive voice will be hitting the airwaves in more ways than his songs. He’ll be doing some fun Q&A radio commercials with trivia questions from the game.
“This is a great game, we’ve been playing this on the tour bus these last few weeks and I’m kicking my band’s butts!” Eddie Money declared.
“Everybody loves Eddie Money,” Ken Eichstaedt, president of Aleken Games, said. “He’s synonymous with rock and roll. Being a New York native, the Toy Fair venue was a great place to kick-off our joint promotion. Now, we’ll be working with Eddie to support his album as he visits each city on his tour. He's a hit maker with fans around the world, just like Rock and Roll Triviologies™ is a hit with music fans everywhere.”
