Don't miss Guitar Geek Festival #10--Jan. 25-26, 2013!

[Deke Dickerson]

hey there Mosrite folks! I haven't been on the list much recently, but I hope you're all doing well.

Just wanted to announce the 10th and LAST "Deke's Guitar Geek Festival," which will be happening Jan. 25-26, 2013 at the Anaheim Plaza Hotel Ballroom in Anaheim, California.

There are a ton of great artists but most importantly for the Forum here, we'll be doing a BILL GRUGGETT tribute on saturday night, so we invite anybody who has a Gruggett or a Hallmark to bring it to display and also to join our "All-Gruggett-Hallmark-Orchestra."

We'll also have Mosrite-sportin' Man...Or Astroman? headlining Friday night, Los Straitjackets, Barbara Lynn, Jimmy Vivino from the Conan show, and MUCH MUCH more!

Buy your tickets at www.guitargeekfestival.com This show WILL sell out!

Hey guys, I will be flying out some rare vintage Gruggett and Hallmark guitars to have at the booth for this last blowout event for pictures and live playing.

Deke has been putting this event on for 10 years now and this last show looks like it will be one heck of an event! And for Geekness sake, to insure no future regret bring your Hallmark or Gruggett guitar and get in on the action on this last legendary truly unique event.

For Hallmark fans, Man or Astroman? will be using all Hallmark model guitars for their set. Last time I saw them they about blew up the joint. A live set you will not want to miss.

I hope to see you all there and please come by the Hallmark booth and say hello!

I went to this 2 years ago and have to say that if you can possibly make it, don't miss it! About as cool of a show as you can imagine, and geeky beyond belief.

Some of you all may not know about the band Man or Astroman?

Here is a preview of what could transpire from them at Deke's Guitar Geek Festival, if they decide to return to earth. Time will tell.

Oh boy, I live on the wrong side of the planet...
Still can't wait to get my Hallmark in that lovely tri-color. Btw, a question for Bob: Does the painting on the tri-color C60 sparkle?

[Bob Shade]

Hello, would you re-phrase this question? Sorry but I am not exactly sure what you are asking.

Best, Bob

[SanchoPansen]

Oh, sorry that was kind of very bad english.
I've ordered the red-silver-blue C60 with you (the one Starcrunch from Man or Astroman plays in the videos) and I've seen a couple of close up pictures of the C60 red-silver-blue and it occured to me that the painting has a little bit of sparkling effect - like little metal flakes inside the color?

[Bob Shade]

Oh, yes, that is a sparkle finish!!

[SanchoPansen]

Thanks for the fast reply! Now I'm even more excited! I already love Hallmark guitars although I have never played one. Even have a homemade Hallmark t-shirt...

[Bob Shade]

Really? That is very cool! Can I see a pic of the Tee Shirt??
