…will the VI-Cor Plaza stage smell as bad as the plant in industrial park…just wondering…?
Irie Sol is one of the best bands we have ever seen!! If you love Reggae and world music– you will not be disappointed…. Last time they were in Mason City, the drummer was a great grandson of Bob Marley…
That won’t matter if VICOR is in production as it will fowl the air over the whole event!!! Everyone knows how fowl the air is from VICOR an has been for years. This is probably part of his payback to the boys an girl downtown for changing the zoning for him a couple years back. Ooooooooooo an his son owns quarry after sleeping with original owner wife an taking over while he was out of town how continent the towns good old boys are. I’ll bet VICOR won’t be in production that day/night…
So you can complain about one of your senses being fouled (the sense of smell), yet do you care about your sense of hearing being fouled with loud tailpipe exhaust noises?
It’s remarkable how people seem to disregard or place importance on one sense over the other, (usually according to their own selfish preferences).
Councilman Jim Boehnke says loud pipes don’t bother him, and he’s perfectly fine with disregarding hundreds of his constituents who it does bother.
Finally, somebody talking about loud tail pipes and motorcyles etc. hahahahahaaaaaa
I didn’t know bicycles had tailpipes or mufflers or make noise!
Good point I wonder if VICOR will be open for business Wednesday and Wednesday night. That place stinks up the whole town! What an impression it will leave on 50,000 if it is in operation. Nothing like some good tunes while smelling stink. I pray to the lord on high that the thermal oxidizer works.
