CONCERTS

Foreigner said goodbye to Des Moines with one final show at the Iowa State Fair. Earlier this year, 93.3 KIOA held a Youth Choir Competition for choir groups to submit their group singing a Foreigner song to then be voted on by listeners. The winners, Johnston Middle School Choir Boys, got to perform on stage with Foreigner.
