I run a guitar store, but I have also been volunteering around Boulder for some 20+ years.
I volunteer for the Boulder International Film Festival (@BIFF1) and this summer they are presenting Drive In movies at the Boulder Municipal Airport. We have also been showcasing some of the best musicians in Boulder in a mini concert before the movie. Yes, there is some live music in Boulder.
I had the pleasure to work with Jack Hadley last Saturday night. A great singer songwriter and someone I highly recommend. https://jackhadleymusic.net
It is a little strange playing to an audience in cars who honk for appreciation but everyone who has performed has had a good time.
Movies+Concerts run through the end of September so please come out if you can.

Monkton Guitars was the shop of the month in July for Guitarshoptees.com. Eric and his team did a wonderful job of designing a new Tee and putting together a package on Monkton Guitars for subscribers to Guitar Shop Tees. The ad photo is from "Guitar Player" magazine
This is a great gift for someone who wears tees and likes unusual shirts from guitar stores all over the world. A new store is featured each month. Please visit Guitarshoptees.com
We are selling this Yamaha Pacifica PAC012 with strap for $90. We will donate $45 of the proceeds to help Second Wind Fund of Boulder. This is a great starter guitar that typically sells for $120 used. Get a great guitar and help a charity that supports prevention of youth suicide.

Today is the 3rd anniversary since my son Brent took his life. The stones in his garden, with the wonderful messages from friends and family, have faded with time.
My shop is my life without my son and his spirit is with me.
