Tonight we unveiled our MerleFest giveaway, which will give four-day
passes to two lucky listeners for MerleFest '99 in Wilkesboro, N.C. on April
29 - May 2. Additionally, the grand prize winner will also receive a parcel
of CDs of various MerleFest artists. Runner-up prizes will be CDs of

Sweet Home" (to go along with our MerleFest contest).
