R-Jeneration: R-Voice — What entertainment do you wish was available to Las Vegas teens?

"I wish there were more places for teens to be able to hang out under 21. People over 21 have clubs and such, but I wish we were able to have hangout places like that."

Jenae Christensen, Sophomore

"I wish there were more concerts that kids under 18 could go to."

Darius Bravo, Junior

"What I'd generally like to see is more access to live music."

Daniel Coffey, Senior

"I wish we had more artistic places, with more artistic expression. Like in Detroit, they're having this cultural revolution where a bunch of artists are living in abandoned buildings. They're creating art exhibits and using these buildings to express their artistic freedom."

Jordan Coburn, Senior

"I wish there were more music events that were open to audiences our age. Since we live in Vegas and there's bound to be alcohol at every event, the age limits are often 21 and older."

Ryan Whaddoups, Senior

"They've closed down a lot of venues, but I wish they had more concert venues like five years ago, but I think otherwise we're good because we're able to go to shows on the Strip."
