2014 DOUGLAS COUNTY GUITAR SHOW & CO LUTHIER EXPO – JUNE 29th
DMEvarts, LLC is pleased to announce that the 2014 Douglas County Guitar Show & Colorado Luthier Expo will be on Saturday, June 28th at the Lutheran High School in Parker, CO. Vendor tables start as low as $50.00 and even less if you exhibited last year. Copy and paste this link into your browser to register http://i62745.wix.com/2014-guitar-show
If you want to exhibit or sell at the show, register early and select the best table, booth, and/or sponsorship options that fit your needs as soon as possible. You won’t be billed until after May 1st. Reserving your space and making a commitment now helps us budget the radio and other advertising campaigns that are planned.
This year we will give away a near-mint 2001 Vintage Sunburst finished Epiphone/Gibson “Dot” guitar with a hard shell case as our high-end door prize. The opportunity to win this over $400 value instrument should help to encourage a great turnout!
Now, to all my out of state Facebook friends that have not yet made vacation plans for the summer. The Rocky Mountain region has a great deal to offer! Please consider visiting our nation’s “Purple Mountains Majesty” and consider including a side trip to Parker Colorado on June 28th – This guitar show will be a “must-see” destination!
Stan is a co sponsor of this show and will be doing a luthier presentation focusing on a 1962 Fender Jazz-master electric guitar restoration. Be sure to “save the date”!
If you haven’t reserved your space – do it soon! – I just feel like something good is about to happen…

CITY PARK JAZZ ANNOUNCES 2014 LINEUP
City Park Jazz heads into its 28th season with a great lineup of FREE Sunday concerts in the park. Spanning 10 weeks across June, July and August, the collection of local musicians in this year’s lineup crosses cultures, styles and genres in a way that reflects the musical and cultural diversity of Denver.
“Our booking committee hit another homerun this year,” says Chris Zacher, president of the non-profit City Park Jazz Board of Directors. “We open with perennial favorite Hazel Miller, we have an exciting tribute to Freddy Rodriguez — who’s a Denver institution himself — and we’re closing out with Chris Daniels and the Kings, who are celebrating their 30th anniversary this year. We’ve got a great, eclectic mix of Latin, Creole and blues bands sprinkled in between.”
This season also features a new logo designed by local artist Michael King. “The logo was unanimously approved by the judging committee,” Zacher says. “It reflects so many of the things that make CPJ and Colorado great, and most importantly, looks awesome on a t-shirt.” See more of King’s work at www.velveteenrobot.com.
The season runs every Sunday evening starting June 1 from 6-8 p.m. The free concerts are staged on the pavilion in City Park.
