Happy Fourth of July!

Posted on July 2, 2007 by billmanzi

As we get ready to celebrate our Independence Day our thoughts and prayers are with our troops serving our country overseas. Both Afghanistan and Iraq are difficult theatres of war, and our men and women have performed admirably in those difficult circumstances. Methuen Fireworks Celebration: The 2007 Methuen Fireworks Celebration will be at Nicholson Stadium, Tuesday, July 3, featuring Velvet Elvis, and Beetle Juice and Friends performing at 7:30pm. Spectacular Fireworks show choreographed to music begins at 9:30pm. Information: 978-983-8590.

    I have to say that the Methuen Fireworks were great this year and the bands were very entertaining. The only complaint I have is for the Tsongas campaign. Many people were bothered when the Tsongas sign holders left their post at the enterance of the field, and began parading through the crowd with their signs held high. They dirtied people’s bankets, knocked over cans of soda, blocked the view of the band and stepped on a few kid’s fingers. What a dumb idea. The joke in the crowd was that Niki Tsongas lost 6,000 votes last night.

    I have to agree with Matt. It was a great time, the bands were both fantastic. And yes, the campaigning should have stayed at the entrance (I believe I saw the Finegold campaign parading through too).
