Anyway, Sony recorded the event and I think in a day or two I’ll have some videos for all of you to watch. When I do I’ll write a bit more on the night’s activities. The one thing I want to say after watching tonight's show is that if you can make any of the performances in the coming week, I’d make the effort, as John really does give it his all while onstage.
John C. Reilly, the star of the upcoming Judd Apatow produced comedy Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, will tour the country next month in character as his alter ego Dewey Cox, the mythic rock & roll icon whose music influenced a nation. Reilly will perform live as Dewey Cox with his band, The Hard Walkers, the scorching rock ensemble, for the year's most anticipated concert series, the "Cox Across America Tour"

"I have loved Cox from the beginning and I will be at every show worshipping Cox from the foot of the stage." - John C. Reilly
"Not since Duran Duran toured America in 1984 have people been so excited about a rock tour." - producer Judd Apatow
"You're welcome, America." - Dewey Cox
America loves Cox! In Columbia Pictures' new comedy "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story," John C. Reilly stars as larger-than-life musician and songwriter Dewey Cox. Behind the music is the up-and-down-and-up-again story of a legend whose songs would change a nation. On his rock 'n' roll spiral, Cox sleeps with 411 women, marries three times, has 22 kids and 14 stepkids, stars in his own '70s TV variety show, collects friends ranging from Elvis to the Beatles to a chimp, and gets addicted to – and then kicks - every drug known to man... but despite it all, Cox grows into a national icon and eventually earns the love of a good woman - longtime backup singer Darlene (Jenna Fischer).
