Ghoti, Inc.

Ghoti, Inc.

Ghoti, Inc. is a non-profit organization that specializes in Christian concert promotion. Established in October 2002 in Austin, Texas, the corporation has expanded to include branches in Snyder, Texas, and Chanute, Kansas. "Red Letter Rock Fest" is a company under the Ghoti, Inc. umbrella.

The name GHOTI is either deliberately or accidentally linked to the Christian faith in another way, since the symbol of many Christians is the fish. GHOTI is pronounced FISH by explanation of writer George Bernard Shaw. The parts of the name are as follows: GH pronounced as in the word ENOUGH, O pronounced as in the word WOMEN, and TI pronounced as in the word NATION. There we have the complexities of the English language in full view.

Red Letter Rock 20

Red Letter Rock 20 was a weekly Christian rock countdown that was internationally-syndicated on over 60 radio stations across the United States, Canada, and New Zealand. The show was hosted by Reid Johnson and Cody Christopher. They began producing the show on November 1, 2003, and Red Letter Rock 20's last broadcast was February 4, 2008. Bands like P.O.D., Relient K, Underoath, Flyleaf, Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, Jeremy Camp, Kutless, Pillar, BarlowGirl, Hawk Nelson, Sanctus Real, and Disciple have served as Johnson and Christopher's co-host. The Christian rock chart was compiled by "Radio & Records", an industry trade publication.

Awards
