However it not on with a Hardshell or O-gravity case unless use the space the top folds into.
That means the top would have to stay up.
So now you know
I think VXT case would fit.
I just tried btw |

With the top up, I can fit two deep bowl cases.
(I just tried, too)
Nice car, BTW. I like the C7 vert better than the hardtop.

Not today..... I had an oil change at Chevy for my 86 Monte Carlo. I asked if a guitar case would fit in the trunk.
They come by and give it a try.
I am involved with a Musical Comedy based video Skyrim, and other gaming and geek media. Its designed to be given a comic book conventions. Built in audience. We estimated we could gross 2.9 Million to 8.4 million the first year. The we talking about distribution with a major label (one of big 3) they estimate 17.4 million first year gross with a 30 week tour. So when the tour gets settled up ....ya I am getting one Arctic White Chrome Wheels....650 horse power.... As long as things work out ... this could still blow up...I having positive thoughts.

I don't take it to the shop because I don't want the mechanics to take it for a 'test drive.'

I used to ride my 10 speed all over the place carrying a guitar. Right hand on the handle bars, left hand holding the guitar case. Never crashed, either. |

So in the end, the musician will get paid $4.83 of the $17.4 million the label takes in. |

Average attendance at large comic con style conventions over the 30 week tour of North America is 54,000 unique visitors each and and they are there for 3 to 4 days. They come to expressly to buy things. Most spend $80 a day on merch. So if we get $2 of $240 is 2.9 million.... That assumes you get 10% con attendees to come into the room watch the show. Those in room buy merch at typical like concert. The two times at small convention we done the show we gotten 15 and 20% to see complete unknowns with no advertising or promotions.
The only holding us back is money to launch the tour. If you know wants invest in something let me know.
We need 500K to launch the tour with a promotional push.
When ran the number I got number the first time I really high numbers. Ones so high that did not think anyone would believe them. Those were around what the label came up with for the low end.
They key to this they already at convention they don't have buy a ticket they walk into the room and watch the show. Then we sell them merch. In world of geek media if they like you they buy everything you have.
There over 900 of the conventions world wide. Big ones here are range from 30,000 to 150,000. In Europe 150,000 to 250,000 and Asia 250,000 to 750,000 attend these events.

That is why trying to get an investor and or endorsements or sponcer instead of going with label.
There still is a way to get involved. If you know anyone |

Seems to me that if the LABEL came up with those numbers, they should be HAPPY to spot the $500K??? Why would you need outside investors with that type of revenue projections? |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I can't get an Ovation with OHSC in the trunk of either Porsche, so SWMBO assumes that if she goes along on a trip, I won't have room to buy a guitar and bring it back in the passenger seat. After I brought StephenT28's 47RI back from Colorado, she started riding along. I can fit one guitar in a soft case in the back trunk and then a bunch of gear in the front trunk. I've started taking electrics with a mini amp on trips to save space. |

No I just doing music. Yes you are correct great talent here.
I moved because there was an arson fire in my condo in my Homeowners insurance had to pay for me to be somewhere. I have disability retirement from the stress of working with abused kids. Money wasn't an issue. Well till last Weds. My condo was supposed fixed by June 30th, i would be going back to Connectict until the funding for the comedy show arrives. My condo is not fixed. Its been since the fire on March 2 2014. Insurance maxed and wondering where I am going to live. I pretty stuck right now. I started a go fund because I'm out of ideas. http://www.gofundme.com/xaaur8
That was curve ball I did not see coming.
