I think the center needs to look into some rock & roll concerts. One of the ones they had before was hairball. When people hear about them they say yeah i saw them before, but they are not the same every show. Hairball is always a great conc...

The overall feels of events feel "nearly enough". Been to a few concerts and conventions, sports events, and meetings there. The event feels great but always seems to be lacking something. (Ex. Comicon side events like panels, gaming contests, ...
live music, or even an anime showing room. Concerts feel detached, and sporting events(though entertaining) feel like something is missing)

Refs were terrible at the area games. I don’t even think they get their eyes checked.

points. Maybe next time get better refs.
