context_page_description: Open Carry Guitar Rally is a concept created by Barry Kooda in response to the Open Carry gun movement. During an Open Carry Guitar Rally, citizens congregate in a public place while displaying their instruments, a parody of similar gatherings held by gun rights activists.
context_section_description: The original Open Carry Guitar Rally occurred on July 4, 2014, at the Continental Avenue Bridge Park in Dallas, Texas. This event was conceived and coordinated by Barry Kooda, co-coordinated by Kyle Reynolds, and promoted by graphic designer Pat Ramseur with event coordination assistance from Mike Schwedler and Reid Robinson. Over 1,000 people RSVP'ed on the group's Facebook page.
  The event was continued in 2015, 2016, and 2017 as well.
  Next one is October 27, 2019.
