Ooh..feisty Kevin. Who did you contact?
Funny, I'm the organizer of the event and I never received an email, phone call, myspace message, text message, or smoke signal from anyone at CPR in regard to The Fest. We'd have been glad to have you on board. Next time, call me.
BTW guys -- I spent the better part of the afternoon yesterday and this morning working out the details with my peeps at PEAVEY to have them fund Guitars Not Guns in the same way that The Gibson Foundation does. SO -- As of this morning, GNG will be co-sponsored by both companies. By this time next year, GNG will be in every BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB on the Coast. Add them on myspace if you haven't yet:
