Hi Chuck,

excuse me, but I'm afraid that piece of information is misleading. June 11th was the original end date, mentioned all the time. Therefore, nothing has been extended so far. And it is of no use for CAAS visitors, since CAAS will last from July 11th-14th, which is one month later. The fact, that the June 11th date is mentioned in Fred Gretsch's blog doesn't necessarily mean that any kind of decision has been made. It can also mean that there's no decision about an extension yet. In saying that, I'd like to point you at the online petition to extend it until some time in July 2012, so that CAAS visitors can attend the exhibit, too.

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1155&start=10I'm a little disappointed that only very few Chetboarders have signed it so far. Are there so many Nashvillians, that they can go to the CMHoF all year long?
Nice photos on Mr. Gretsch's blog - looks like a great exhibit. And memorable meeting of legendary guitarists on the opening reception.
Other than that I would like to say: Great dress, Paul!!!
Cheers,
