In this case, it apparently means devices being run on solar and/or geothermal power. Although they have a continuing source of power, the effect is like a perpetual motion machine, in that the input power is from a constant source, the sun and geothermal power. http://www.earthlinked.com/learn-more/about-our-company Concerning the “perpetual energy” confusion, perpetual motion has traditionally referred to a device that, once put in motion by an initial input of energy, continues to run forever without any more energy being applied to it.

I am delighted to hear about these plans. This IS going to be the spot for this part of the country and will be heard of nation wide. It's great to see someone capture the vision of a sustainable venue and make it a reality in our own back yard! Sure there will be hurdles, but nothing worth having comes easy. Keep the wheels turning in the right direction and I'm certain this will be a hit! Hell Yeaahh!!! Wow! I am delighted to hear about these plans.

It looks like it may finally happen. Talks about this venue have been in the work for some time and I dont think the talks would have gotten to this point if somebody doesnt believe enough in it to build this beautiful ampitheater, while also making a profit. Go ahead and build it, so we can finally get a destination that will attract not just people from NWA but from all over the country. Remember what Kevin Costner said "if you build it they will come"! hahah Seriously though this is great I just hope it gets done this time and the people financing it don't back out.

Usually when people say "perpetual motor" they mean a machine that defies/rewrites the laws of physics and can be turned on and magically produces power w/ no outside fuel or energy source. If that's what you have in the works you should drop the OCPAC stuff and just hype that machine because that would be a revolutionary energy breakthrough the world has never seen and would likely win a Nobel prize. If you're just talking about some other type of sustainable energy, I would just say that and not call it a perpetual motor. People will like to hear there is going to be some sustainable construction and energy practices at your venue. But when you bring up something that seemingly defies the laws of physics, that gets people who understand (or think they understand) physics asking questions, doubting you and ultimately distracting people from your main goal: building a bad ass venue. Best of luck in the construction. Looking forward to some great shows! @OCPAC re: perpetual motors, i think the terminology is causing the confusion.

So, half assed? I'll take that as a compliment. As far as the perpetual motors, the person responsible for that is a gentleman named Hal Roberts who is building one for the U of A as we speak, Google him. I am not a scientist, but I will say that we as a company, are willing to look at any and all types of earth friendly alternatives to fossil fuels. @hype: I have worked in concert production probably longer than you have been on this planet.

High Hopes hits several nails on the head. Couldn't be more excited for a big venue & great bands to come through the area, but Zaff is right, lots of hurdles. And I know it's already been pointed out by others, but really? Perpetual motors? That was really in the quote? It may take the power to defy physics to get this thing built, so that'd be great if they really had those. Jokes aside, good work on the goal to go green during construction. Will reduce operating costs and likely garner some good press, as long as they don't mention perpetual motors again. Spin that off as a joke, asap. This would be great.

There have been some questions about alcohol sales at the site, and while we expect to be able to overcome that issue, we are not relying on the sale of alcohol to controll the destiny of this project. It's about MUSIC, All types of music, for all types of people, not just rock and roll. As far as our plan of "selling out" 16,000 seats, why would we want to build a venue of 6,000 - 10,000 seats? The majority of our capacity will be lawn seats, leaving us ample seating in the loge area to "sell out" as you say. There is no other venue of this scale within a 2-300 mile radius. So, in closing. This will be built. It will be successful, obviously there will be some people who are not excited or happy about this project, but we are confident that as a whole it will benefit the entire NW Arkansas area. @ highhopes: Generally speaking there are some hurdles to overcome in this project, but we have a dedicated team of “Profesionals”, who are well versed in both the business of music, as well as the business of business.
