To our far left was the merchandise table, and about 50 feet to away from that was the cold, steel, grandstand seating.

states, North Dakota, is immediately characterized as “lonely, treeless, and a devoid of rises and curves,” which severely lacks an appeal to prospective landowners. Marquart even goes as far as to describe the land as “like one long-held pedal steel guitar note,” to emphasize the monotony of the landscape.

The entire album has achieved something that not many bands today have, absolute…
