Wisconsinites have already signed on to record their tributes,
including musician Daryl Stuermer, who is performing at the M&I
Classic Rock Stage during Summerfest, Wisconsin Governor Jim Doyle,
and Larry Nelson, mayor of Waukesha, Wis., the hometown of Les
Paul. The videos will be edited and shown at the lighting of
M&I's corporate headquarters, 770 North Water Street,
Milwaukee, on June 20. For the past two years, M&I has lit its
corporate headquarters in the shape of two electric guitars as a
kick off to Summerfest. This year the guitars will be in the shape
of the Les Paul-style guitar. The June 20 event salutes Les Paul's
93rd birthday, his contributions to music, and the opening of the
"Les Paul's House of Sound" exhibit on June 21 at Discovery World
in Milwaukee. Marshall & Ilsley Corporation (NYSE:MI) is a
