A Shoals Dignitary Tours "The Slag at Furnace Hill"

 

We gave up most hope of a thriving Inspiration Landing a long time ago. Yet we had hoped the music venue, located fairly close to the main entrance, would be a success and an asset to the community. In 27/28 days, the first and second concerts are scheduled for "The Slag." 

This week a Shoals dignitary toured the still under construction venue. The former official came away bemused by the lack of work at the site. Here's a humorous take on the endeavor:

Here are some quotes from the dignitary's review:

Beautiful roads and curbs that end in dead ends and some drop off in woods.

Funny. Seriously, every road dead ends. You should take a tour for yourself.

I promise you, there is no room for any one to set up stage and the like for a concert. There is one parking lot that is isolated that may have 75 spaces.

Just the last quote gives room for quite a pause. VIP tickets for 300 (not counting general admission) and only 75 parking places? 

And the Marshall Tucker concert? We know several, all over 40 (they may even be over 50 if they consulted their watches) who have said they would love to go, but won't tolerate what they perceive as the conditions of the venue. Pass the meloxicam.

If you've had your own tour, please send us a review...
