Here is a shout-out to the courageous musicians and demonstrators in Nashville who rallied in support of Gibson Guitars!  The news story describes a stark contrast between the "Occupy Nashville" crowd and the "Occupy Wall Street" groups.  I commend the Nashville protesters for sharing their views while still showing respect for the public and the environment!  I am sure that means that they will not get all the news coverage of the rabble in New York, but they deserve our attention and support. 


It continues to defy logic that our own Executive branch of government is treating Gibson Guitar as the worst kind of criminal for trying to build guitar parts in America instead of letting them be created overseas.  Isn't that what everybody is complaining about? -  jobs being sent overseas?  It simply does not make sense to punish Gibson Guitar company for creating jobs in America.  If you're in the market for a guitar, I suggest you buy a Gibson!
