Mr. Owen Keegan:

I sent my letter because of the general view that this matter involved Aiken Promotions and Garth Brooks on one side and the city council on the other. It was important to point out that there was another player with a significant financial interest involved. I was drawing members' attention to it. If they feel conflicted, it is a matter for themselves to address. I never refused to attend this meeting, but people need to be aware that the GAA has a major role in this.
