“This is an opportunity for the bands to come out and do what they do best,” says Michael Peck, theater director and founding member of Chyro Arts, “and let us thank them the best way we know how.”

Says Peck, “I just hope that the music scene, and the independent art scene in general, can keep plugging away and grinding it out and demanding the attention that it deserves, in spite of the economy.”
