Dashboard Confessional Award Their Customized Honda Civic to Margarita Garcia of Redwood City, Calif.

VENICE, Calif.--June 4, 2004--Prior to their headlining concert at the Event Center at San Jose State University on Thursday, June 3, as part of Civic Tour 2004, Dashboard Confessional awarded Margarita Garcia of Redwood City, Calif., one of the customized and autographed Honda Civics that they personally designed. Garcia was among the lucky 74 contestants who won a chance to randomly select a key that could start the Dashboard Confessional Civic through a contest with the Bay area's top alternative station Live 105 (KITS). While Garcia was the lucky winner whose key started the engine, all of the contestants were awarded a pair of tickets to that night's show as well as the opportunity to meet Chris, John, Scott and Mike of Dashboard Confessional.

Fans still have even more opportunities to win one of the eight remaining customized Civics designed by Dashboard Confessional through upcoming media promotions as well as the "Drive Away With" national sweepstakes at www.civictour.com.
