This message came to Chamorro.com via email from Steve Blas. Please read his letter below.

     

This letter is to inform the supporters of the Kutturan Marianas concert to be held in Las Vegas in regards to its cancellation and postponement. Due to lack of funds from ticket sales to support the event, it was postponed to May 26th and the reservation at the location had to be rescheduled. To my disappointment, the location had already been booked for the 26th and we must once again postpone the concert. Therefore, I would like to extend my sincere apologies to all those who have granted their time and support in my effort to bring together family and friends across the states to enjoy a weekend of authentic Chamorro food, fun and entertainment and of course the memories to be made and taken home with you.

An event of this magnitude surely cannot be done without the support of the people and fans of our locals artists and musicians. Many of us could truly benefit from the exposure of these talented individuals uniting here in the states willing to express potential to our youths and demonstrating a sense of belonging and being proud of where we are all from. I hope that you will all come together in an effort to continue to make this concert take place. The key to the success of this event taking place is through the support of all of you. Additional efforts are being made to raise funds for this event including, but not limited to fundraisers and sales. A future date will be decided as to when the concert will be held after the summer months when the heat is just too intense. For those of you who have already purchased tickets, if you prefer to hold onto your tickets to reserve your spot in advance, that would be ideal and actually helpful in raising funds for the concert. If you wish to have your money refunded, all you have to do is simply contact your local area representative and all monies will be refunded immediately for I have already inconvenienced you enough.

In closing, I wish to extend my deepest and sincerest apologies for any inconveniences I may have caused and am eager to resolve the issues and obstacles preventing our success.

Dankulu na si yuus maase,
Steve Blas
