Repost from Marc Mencher:

Hello Friends and Family- please pardon this intrusion but I felt
compelled to send this message. I ask you to forward it on if it is
anything you have interest in. If not- delete it- or let me know and
I'll never have a message sent to you again.

As many of you know, I worked in cooperation with Oneida Casino in
Green Bay Wisconsin, America... to Produce Rockin' 50s Fest 1-2 and

3. Ihave spoken with my partner at Oneida, Phil Doran, in great
length. As you may know we NEVER set out to create an annual/bi
annual- or repeating event of any sort. In 2002 we were all truly
blessed by the event that happened at Oneida in July that year.
Indeed history was made. And the feeling we all went away with was
overwhelmingly positive and strong. The Casino wanted us to do it
again- so we did in 2005 and then again in 2007- each time- always
thinking "this is it... last time".

SO- regarding Rockin' 50s fest and a 4th edition- there are currently
zero plans. The casino is in full gear- Phil like a mad genius
booking every major star with any musical relevance from Willie
Nelson to George Jones to Dionne Warwick and Brian Setzer, as well
lessor established musical groups that have captured his ears.
Meanwhile, I am off to Italy and Spain for festivals I am working on
and then back home focusing on Sean Mencher's career (just sponsored
by Gretsch Guitars) as well as my upcoming shows with The Crickets-
The Collins Kids and Slim Jim Phantom..

BUT- when PHIL and I saw this petition last week being circulated by
people asking for the Fest to live and happen again, we both were-
humbled and thrilled. I can not say now we will do it again, but I
can say we have discussed it since seeing this petition and the
general feeling is with a few thousand signatures we may get some
fuel in the tank - see how far down the line this hot rod can get...
However, if the petition stalls with a mere 400-500 signatures, the
festival will surely not happen again and live on only in our
memories.

At this time, I remain hopeful.

THE Petition has zero to due with me or Oneida- we were shocked- and
thrilled -when it arrived in my inbox from - Bobby Crawford in
Texas...we're honored and hopefully- with a few thousand signatures-
that's what it will take- we will all ROCK again in Green Bay!!
Please feel MOST WELCOME TO email the world the following:

PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION!!
