Where the hell is Matt? Minneapolis

Matt Harding, the guy known for dancing badly - but happily - around the world, is getting some dance lessons at the Walker Art Center's sculpture garden this Saturday. And he'd like you to join him.

The self-described deadbeat from Connecticut became an internet hit when he produced a video of himself dancing in unique locations. Stride Gum saw great marketing potential, and sponsored Harding to make two more videos. In the third, and probably most inspiring video (above), he invited fans to join him.

Now Harding is on tour with his video camera again, and this time he's decided to learn some new moves.

According to his Facebook page, he'll be at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden on Saturday from 4-7pm, and he'd like folks to join him.

If you plan to go, he asks that you register as "attending" on his Facebook page so he know how many to plan for.
