Alaska's own Hobo Jim gave Kotzebue a concert just before Christmas in 2004. He's a great performer and has written songs that have become serious hits. He played in the gym at June Nelson Elementary School, which brings us to one of my favorite harangues.....who is guilty of tearing down this excellent stage? It was near perfect! Now performances take place on the less accommodating stage in the new high school multi-purpose room....an acoustic disaster! I suggest the old stage be rebuilt! The June Nelson gym is so cozy!
