QUESTION
HE
SHE
Well, no one here really KNOWS if this clown is cheating or not, but clearly his “ostrich” approach to modern romance and relationships is one to avoid. I agree that he’s not man enough to settle things between you so you can BOTH move on, therefore, I recommend the following...get whatever is left of yours from his place, car...whatever...make 7 or 8 long distance phone calls to inland China, unplug his ‘fridge and move on your merry way. Okay, maybe forget the fridge thing, since you are obviously the adult here. Regardless, this isn’t the guy you want to waste anymore time with. Maybe get a dog! Your soon-to-be-ex can go get a fuzzy glove. Good luck! Hope it works out for you.
I’m really glad that you picked up on his “not-so-subtle-hints”….He is totally FKHDWLQJ�RQ�\RX��(YHQ�LI�ZH�JLYH�KLP�WKH�EHQH¿�W�RI�WKH�GRXEW�DQG�VD\�KH�LVQ¶W�FKHDWLQJ���He is totally over you and too big of a jerk to not call it off. He is waiting for you to be the “bad” guy. I’m sure he makes you feel like YOU are the crazy one and that YOU are possessive! BLAH BLAH! BLAH! BLAH! You need a real man who isn’t a TOOL!!! Hitting ignore is childish and you can do better sweetie!
For the past couple weeks whenever I call my boyfriend he hits ignore, sending me to voicemail and then texts me,”Hey! What’s Up!” He says, he doesn’t want to talk on the phone. I think he may be cheating on me. When we hang out his phone is always going off and he won’t let me see it. What do I do? Anonymous

22BEHIND THE MUSIC
Finding national headlin-ing entertainers to come to Fargo North Dakota can be one heap of a task. This location pre-sents obstacles like be-ing off the track of most tours, weather situations making for nearly impos-sible attendance pre-sumptions, and limited venues to hold events. When hearing all that, you almost want to say “forget that, there is no way!” Jade Nielsen, owner of Jade Presents in Fargo, has something else to say when it comes
to providing the Fargo area with national head-liners, and that is “bring it on!” Jade has been booking and promoting concerts in this area for 20 years and with the consistent growth and trending popularity of this area, the job has become easier. His challenge now…how big does he want to go? FM Spotlight sat down with Jade for an interview and photo VHVVLRQ�WR�À�QG�RXW�ZKDWҋV�behind all this entertain-ment in Fargo-Moorhead.

HOW DO YOU GAIN ACCESS TO SOME OF
THESE NATIONAL MUSI-CIANS?
Over the years, I have built relationships with almost all of the talent agencies in the country. It really helps to have years of experience and networking to be able to make a call and book an artist. Success breeds success as well, so when an act comes to town and does well, that word travels back to the agent, manager and other acts. That leads to, more calls, more tours, and a bet-ter variety of enter-tainment for the area.HOW BUSY ARE YOU?:H�DUH�EXV\��:HҋOO�ERRN�and produce close to 200 events this year.

It handles the actual sales of tickets for various events in the region. Rather than working with Ticketmas-ter, or any of the other national companies, we created our own company. This allows us to control the fees charged, and allows us to give personalized service. The public can purchase tickets more DIIRUGDEO\�DQG�HIÀFLHQW-O\��2XU�WLFNHW�RIÀFH�LV�OR-
cated at 300 Broadway in downtown Fargo, or you can go to tickets300.com to purchase tickets.WHAT’S NEXT FOR JADE
PRESENTS?We are excited about the renovations at the Hub. The revised Venue will be a tremendous asset to the Fargo-Moorhead community. They are expanding the facility to accommo-date larger tours, which will give us a great op-portunity to a greater variety of shows to the area.

#2 DO SOME RESEARCH
You might love Matt Hasselback (if you do, you’re an idiot), but the rest of the planet knows his sister-in-law is a stark raving lunatic! It doesn’t matter who you are – your family has some issues, but imagine having to deal with a sister-in-law who’s constantly nagging on and on about how Whoopie is wrong because she
doesn’t have eyebrows. THE HORROR!! The man won’t ever be a winner…because his brother married a loser. Do some background checking on your players, they need to be in the right environment in order to thrive this season.
#3 SMACK TALK
The only reason men play fantasy football is for smack talk. Talking mad amounts of trash towards people, who otherwise wouldn’t deserve it, is what makes it fun. So, sling poo! Threaten your friend’s lives! Make inappro-priate remarks towards one’s mother! Mail a letter with his return address to his boss, titled “Your weekly reports are as worthless as your wife in bed…I’m just kidding…nobody would sleep with your wife!” All is fare in Fantasy Football!
