Its been a long time coming, but we are finally there, and Friday 18th March is going to be a very special day for the UK cigar box scene.

 

After 4 months of hard graft, blood, sweat and beers, the HOME GROWN MUSIC COLLECTIVE will be officially launched, along with details of the much anticipated 3rd annual UK Cigar Box Festival, 'Boxstock'!

 

 

Im not going to say much more at this point as I dont want to spoil the big news, but there is plenty of info regarding the Collective both on the website www.homegrownmusiccollective.com and in the original discussion here 

 http://www.cigarboxnation.com/group/thebritsarecoming/forum/topics/... 

 

Collective membership will be opened on the 18th, so make sure you check back in and join up to receive your membership card, 2 x free HGMC plectrums, 2 free stickers, and a voucher entitling you to a £5 discount off the price of an all day 'Boxstock' ticket!

Wow, exciting times ahead! Many congrats on all your hard work and your perseverance through what has seemed to be, from the forum, a mountain to climb at every turn. A massive thank you from all of us mere mortals! Roll on the 18th!!!!
Best wishes,
Alan.
Cool beans! Thanks for the update Ben and for all the work that you and others have put in to get this thing off the ground. Looking forward to getting signed up and especially to this years fest. It's gonna be a blast. :o)
Yippee!  Well done chaps
Yes....it's been very hard work behind the scenes pulling this together, and we've still got a bit of work to do...but we are pretty much ready to go with both the collective and the festival.

Lookin forward to it.

We also have some cool black n white vinyl stickers coming for those who like it punk, plus theres the voucher and the all important festival flyer. I nearly went daft and included it in the photo, but that would have given the game away!
