O'Malley's presidential sound check

Martin O'Malley, former Maryland governor and mayor of Balmer and current Celtic rock musician, plays 'Hail to the Chief' in advance of his Saturday event.

Gee, sure seems that Martin O'Malley is going to confirm that he's running for the Democratic nomination for president on Saturday.

His campaign released a video of O'Malley, the former Maryland governor and Baltimore mayor, playing "Hail to the Chief" on a guitar borrowed from a supporter. O'Malley, 52, also is the front man for a Celtic rock band.

After the bars of the ceremonial musical greeting for a POTUS, the video notes, "Stay tuned."

O'Malley is scheduled to make an announcement Saturday at 10 a.m. in Federal Hill Park in Baltimore's Inner Harbor neighborhood.
