Copper Mountain had the honor of kicking off the 07/08 Special Blend First Chair Last Call tour. Before the sun even had a chance to creep up from behind the mountains, Benny Bruce, Aaron Kopp, Crist Marten, and Jess Lawton were in line waiting for the coveted title of First Chair and a full head-to-toe setup from Special Blend. At the end of the night, Pizza Carlo hosted the Last Call portion of the event, where tons of Special Blend memorabilia was handed out along with some choice beverages.
