Zihuatanejo - Guitar Fest opening beach concert set up- 2 of 2 - 2015

End of March 2015 - Currently anchored in Zihuatanejo, Mexico,
Some musicians (Axemunkee & Mary Zoo) dropping off CD's.
Each musician would have a few CD's and some priced differently. It was some work to keep track of them all and also people would ask a lot of questions abut them.  (Nancy from s\v Gitane along with Alan and Elizabeth from s\vVivacia are tending to the CD table 😀
