We just want something to do!Posted Wednesday, July 1, 2009, at 5:02 PM
I went to Lazerfest 2009 in Indianola, Iowa, and the band line up included but was not limited to: Korn Buckcherry Saving Abel Saliva Duff McKagan's Loaded Rev Theory The Veer Union
It was out in the middle of no where at the Indianola Balloon Field. It was dirty, rough, and crowded. I wouldn't trade that experience for anything! I'm just wondering if Indianola can do it why can't Spencer. It was just a pop up stage in the middle of a field. We have a huge field across from the fairgrounds that will work perfect. People my age really need something to do. Instead kids go out get drunk/high and people get hurt and lives are changed. This is just an idea but maybe a dance club for minors that could have non alcoholic, but mixed drinks served or concerts that have bands that we'd normally travel to go see. It'll bring money into Spencer either way. It just seems like we're basing our ideas around the older generations. People my age don't care what Spencer looks like, we just want something to do! If you have ideas I'd love to hear them! Comments Showing comments in chronological order [Show most recent comments first] |

I've had this very same thought for along time. Spencer really needs to start utilizing what it STILL HAS. My spouse and I attend concerts freqently. And if the country clubbers can't deal with the "noise", then why not consider a county pasture. We're talking about some real revenue. You have to travel to Des Moines, Sioux City or Minneapolis to take in a good concert. As a matter of fact they have an awesome one coming up in Algona---maybe Algona understands how to profit. When I was a kid they tried several teenaged dance clubs. They went over for a short time. I'm not quite sure why they failed. And now the skating rink has shut down, so there's very little to do. I agree. Boyah to you and your thoughts!!!
