“I think it’s sweet. I’m not too familiar with it, but it sounds pretty cool. I’ve just been back from my mission for a month. I’ll probably head out there when I have some free time though.” — Corey Edwards, Business, Hurricane
“I hear … a lot of big bands have come out of Provo. It seems like it’s very developed.” — Dean Patten, Psychology, Baton Rouge, Louisiana

It’s fun to go to shows at the Velour; there are lots of cool bands.” — Derek Hutchins, Sociology, Gillsferry, Connecticut
“I’m not a huge fan of concerts themselves, with everybody pushing and shoving each other. I can listen to the same stuff on my iPod.” ¬— Joel Rasmussen, Electrical engineering, Minnesota
