SUBJECT: WAMA's congeniality award given to malevolent bully
Wammie recipient linked to bomb threat against veterans' organization
On Sunday, February 17, 2008, the Washington Area Music Association
(WAMA) gave Ron Goad a Wammie award for being the "most supportive of
Washington music." Since the award, an e-mail sent by Mr. Goad has
emerged that portrays him as a malevolent bully. (See e-mail below,
with expanded headers. Ref. Message # 1)
A series of e-mails also link Mr. Goad to a bomb threat against a
veterans' organization. Mr. Goad is a board member of Songwriters
Association of Washington, DC, a sister organization to WAMA. The
president of SAW was investigated by the Montgomery County Police for
inciting the stated bomb threat.
