Blues, Beer & More: CreativeCATS Update: July 11, 2008

To All My Music & Beer Loving Friends!

I still can't believe that it has been three weeks since we completed the Northern California Blues Festival! For those of you who bared the heat, I am sure you would agree it was an incredible event and one for the record books.

There is still time to complete our online survey to let us know what you thought and what you would like to see next year: www.matsonian.com/ncbf/index.html and click on the survey button at the top of the page.

In this, the latest edition of the Creative Cats update, I want to share a few important items:

1. High Quality MP3s Still Available! Did you know that we recorded almost 80% of the Northern California Blues Festival? These HIGH QUALITY recordings are available for a limited time!
