By Mark Carter
G60 will hit Siloam Springs -- perhaps the last patch of NWA it hasn't played -- on June 11.
The Shark-Tank-meets-American-Idol pitch contest will play 28 Springs in historic, downtown Siloam from 7 to 9 that night.
OK, technically, G60 hasn't played Springdale, Centerton or Hogeye, but it's been to Fayetteville and Rogers multiple times and recently made its first stop in Bentonville.
For the record, we love Springdale (home of AQ, the Naturals and Hog O-linemen), Centerton, Hogeye and all of NWA...
It's also been around the state -- Little Rock, North Little Rock, Conway, El Dorado, Russellville and Jonesboro -- and even crossed the border to play Louisiana Tech in Ruston.
G60, of course, was created by UA Technology Ventures Director and IA adviser Jeff Amerine in 2011.
