Dallas International Guitar Festival - April 18, - 20, 2008 - Texas
Dallas International Guitar Festival April 18, 19, 20
http://www.myspace.com/dallasguitarshow
http://www.guitarshow.com/
History fo the Guitar Show
HISTORY : 1978 - 2008 From its humble beginnings in a small meeting room of a Dallas hotel in 1978, to 140,000 square feet of display space at Dallas Market Hall today, the Dallas International Music Festival celebrates 31 years of bringing musicians, guitar makers, collectors, celebrities and music enthusiasts together. Today there are more than 2,000 guitar shows and festivals staged around the world, but the guitar show phenomenon actually began in Texas with the vision of Dallas guitar shop owner Charley Wirz. Charley conceived the idea of establishing and promoting a vintage guitar show similar to other collectible shows, with booths leased to dealers and collectors. Build it and they will come, he thought. And they did. In partnership with John Brinkmann and Danny Thorpe, he staged the first Dallas guitar show. The partnership was dissolved after the 1981 show, and Charley continued to stage the Dallas show until his untimely death in 1985. That first show – the Greater Southwest Vintage Guitar Show - was a modest success for the 10 exhibitors who leased booth space to show off and sell their prized vintage guitars. Each year, the Show attracted more exhibitors and attendees, changing venues to accommodate the growing crowds. But in 1985, show founder Charley Wirz died unexpectedly. Charley's Guitar Shop and the rights to the Guitar Show were then purchased by Mark Pollock, one of Charley's closest friends, a good customer and a touring musician himself. Mark had some ideas about the show’s size and location, so he began a series of changes that have led to its’ prominence today. Mark's first big change was to expand the show by moving its location to the Dallas Convention Center. He envisioned bringing together both guitar purists and everyday music fans, so he hosted a party on Saturday night and hired some outstanding musicians to entertain. Thus, the annual Saturday Night Jam was born. In 1989, Mark initiated a second major change by bringing guitarist and 1978 Show exhibitor Jimmy Wallace in as his partner. A record 10,000 attendees moved through the gates the following year, and Mark and Jimmy were onto something. The Dallas show kept growing larger, and Mark and Jimmy moved the location to Dallas’ Fair Park in 1996. In 1997, the 20th annual show was expanded to include Music Fest, a celebration of local, regional and national bands performing on two stages throughout the weekend. This was Mark and Jimmy’s third major change and it added even more appeal to the general public. In 2004 Mark and Jimmy moved the show to Market Hall, the largest privately-owned exhibition hall in the USA. This new venue features a larger, more flexible exhibit hall, easy access, and plenty of free parking. The layout of the Hall easily accommodates the variety of displays and live music that make up the Dallas International Guitar Festival. For 2008, there will be more artists in attendance, performing and mingling with the attendees throughout three days of guitar heaven. This is the original guitar show, the first of its kind in the nation, and 2008 promises even more innovation and surprises for all. Please join us for THE guitar event of the year.

Stingaree Music Festival - April 18 - 20, 2008 - Crystal Beach, Texas
Stingaree Music Festival - April 18 - 20, 2008 - Crystal Beach, Texas
In 2007 Hayes Carll realized his goal of bringing a songwriter based festival to Texas' Bolivar Peninsula. The Stingaree Music Festival offers fans of singer/songwriter artists an alternative to the congestion of larger festivals. “I have always wanted to do a music festival in Crystal Beach. It is where I got my start performing music. I only spent four and a half years on Bolivar but I made a lifetime of memories. There were three constants in all of them; the people, the music, and the Gulf of Mexico. My goal in throwing this festival is to bring those three together in one place and share them all with my friends.”
Crystal Beach is a beach town just a short ferry ride from Galveston. It is one of the last beach communities in America that hasn’t been overrun with condominiums and strip malls. Bolivar retains a laid back attitude and lifestyle of simpler times. Lodging options are mostly in the form of classic gulf coast beach houses providing festival goers a unique festival environment. The festival features a combination of known national artists and the best new up and coming artists. Last year there were 21 performers on three different stages over the course of the weekend. Expect more of the same this year…

Hello hello…The Mission Creek Festival returns to Iowa City for its third year. The dates are: April 2nd-5th. This four-day annual celebration takes over the venues and art spaces in downtown Iowa City, providing an easy-to-navigate nexus of music, literature, and visual art. The best part is: you can’t see bands like these in more intimate, down-home venues anywhere else around! Iowa City, the “writers’ town”, is just about as cozy as it gets. This year’s highlights include CURSIVE, BON IVER, DAN DEACON, THE HOOD INTERNET, NEVA DINOVA, BEN MARCUS, IOWA CITY DOC. FILM FEST, and more! This year we are also working with Daytrotter to expand the parameters of the festival.

Hello hello…The Mission Creek Festival returns to Iowa City for its third year. The dates are: April 2nd-5th. This four-day annual celebration takes over the venues and art spaces in downtown Iowa City, providing an easy-to-navigate nexus of music, literature, and visual art. The best part is: you can’t see bands like these in more intimate, down-home venues anywhere else around! Iowa City, the “writers’ town”, is just about as cozy as it gets. This year’s highlights include CURSIVE, BON IVER, DAN DEACON, THE HOOD INTERNET, NEVA DINOVA, BEN MARCUS, IOWA CITY DOC. FILM FEST, and more! This year we are also working with Daytrotter to expand the parameters of the festival. A series of Mission Creek Satellite Shows will be held in various parts of the nearby Quad Cities in conjunction with the Iowa City festival.

I am trying to do this easier for all to find the events they are looking for, so I have placed them but province/state/country, month and name.

If there are any other changes that you would like to be made, please feel free to make suggestions as I am always looking for easier ways to do things :)
If you don't have a myspace page but have a dot com site and would like to be added feel free to e-mail me here Please remember that I will NOT add Facebook sites to this page ( I don't feel you should have to log into anything to find out information, yes that is just my opinion).
Thanks for taking the time to view my blog and many more avenues will be added in the future, but for now, one step at a time.
