I'm aware of Dennis', which I think you regular, I'm also aware that big acts occasionally come through the Shrine Mosque and MSU, and I'm aware of Nathan P. Murphy's. Any others in the area?

The Outland is a great place. The Outland Ballroom is great as well. The first showcases a lot of the towns popular acts while the more hard rock and metal acts go upstairs at the Ballroom. My band is actually supposed to play Saturday night the 17th of this month at the Outland downstairs.

As for the comment of this town is going to hell from crime and violence, I hate to say it but as this town gets bigger these are the things that come with growth. "You take the good, You take the bad,
You take them both and there you have the facts of life.!"
