This afternoon at 3 o’clock the gates to the second annual downtown Des Moines alternative music festival 80-35 will open. At noon dark storm clouds hovered over the three stages. Festival organizer Amedeo Rossi explains the rain plan and how he feels good about how the festival layout. Kenny Younger designed the new 80-35.com website and it incorporates many social media tools. This means concert goers can report on the festival with traditional print, radio, and video journalists. As a traditional journalist who also uses the new social media tools I was granted my press credentials today by Jill Haverkamp.
