Cable Positive's Annual Musical Parody
The Denver Chapter of Cable Positive is proud to present its annual musical parody revue in conjunction with The Cable Center's Cable Days event. We will be performing our 14th show, "My Big Fat Greek Digital Dreading." We'll be showing how industry demi-gods decide if they will link mere mortals with the divinely digital and how accounting and law-making tricksters teach us of the magic spells of cash flow metrics. Perhaps you'll catch a Greek chorus singing of their love of providing customer care in a four hour service window or travel with our hero on his quest for the perfect retransmission agreement. And best yet, there'll be cable executives in cute, tight-fitting togas and tunics! Register Online (seperate registration required)Hall of Fame Exhibit Unveiling
