What they’re saying

“We've been planning all winter. We start honestly right in the first part of January, and we do a review of what the hits were? What were some of the not-so-great hits? What can we do to plan for the future? And it dawned on us that the tribute bands have become a real big deal. So we picked three that we're going to hit for this next summer.”

— Layne Miller, Price City Councilmember

“I think of all the bands that I have loved throughout my life, and I think The Eagles are by far the best.”
