Editorial Reflection Keep books after classes for reference Obtaining knowledge is a funda- mental part of a student’s life at Iowa State. Like the university’s mission statement, which is to “create, share, and apply knowledge to make Iowa and the world a better place,” students should seek knowledge while here and apply that knowledge when they’re in school and after they graduate. However, some students lose sight of this aspect of student life and view attending Iowa State as a means to an end — go to classes, do their home- work, take tests, etc. to get their diplomas, which assists them in getting jobs.

Musician Nate Logsdon feels city music scene is expanding

By Dominic.Spizzirri @iowastatedaily.com

Many venues, recording studios, and record labels later, the Ames music scene has grown to be more than aspiring musicians but the work of business musicians that can only lead to one direction: a music industry. Nate Logsdon is a vocalist and trumpet player for the Ames band Mumford’s, creator of the Maximum Ames Music Festival, writer for the Ames Tribune and many other things.

There was a larger story going on besides events and shows, there were cool things hap- pening. I had noticed that in Ames all these things were in- terconnecting and something there was growing… an industry is starting to form.” By industry, Logsdon does not just mean bands can become bigger but that the scene can for a full-blown business. Logsdon believes there could be jobs coming from this: many more venues, many more recording studios and, best of all, a gathering of the most talented artists around. “There’s already a lot [of industry] out there, and the more that gets into it, the more that comes. There’s already a lot of studios and venues and bands, but I can see all those things growing even more,” Logsdon said. “[Iowa State] is already in the direction to put it in mo- tion. The Passion Pit show and KURE Fest are two ex- amples of how they are using university funds to bring in major talent.” Many venues have supported the Ames scene, and with the two years between the Maximum Ames Music Festivals, there has been a drastic increase in the number of venues opened for artists.
