Guitarmageddon 12th year
Four of the best guitarists in San Diego will play at this year's event, individually and together, in the open air courtyard at the 150+ year old gorgeous First Presbyterian Church of SD. Bob Boss, Joe Amato, Alex Ciavarelli and Brandon Scott. Money earned from the $10 admission will be donated to The Ladle program at FPCSD. Ladle is one of the longest running feeding programs for the homeless and they also have a street corner medicine program for those who cannot afford to pay to see a doctor. Ice cream and snacks will be available for purchase. There is not enough room to feature each guitarist. Bob Boss has taught at UCSD, SDSU, Palomar, and has played with A.J. Croce, Rob Thorsen, Marshall Hawkins, and Ray Crawford, among many other well known musicians. Alex Ciavarelli graduated from SDSU music program in 2020. The day of his required final performance to graduate was cancelled due to the virus. He said such happenings provide a way to "negotiate with your own shortcomings". Bob Boss was his teacher. You may have seen the hosts, Archie Thompson and the ArchTones at the Westgate, Eddie V's, or the Jazz, Blues, Gospel service every Sunday from 4:30-6:00. It is ear candy and peace not to be missed! fpcsd.org
