SHELBY, -- Cleanup was taking place Sunday after some scary moments as a stage collapsed during a sound check at the Cleveland County Fairgrounds prior to a concert scheduled as part of festivities for the American Legion World Series Saturday night.
The crew for the band Mercy Me was conducting a sound check when a gust of wind damaged the stage. No injures were reported and the concert, where upwards of 11,000 were scheduled to attend, was cancelled.
Saturday's lineup featured Christian artists, Mercy Me, Aaron Shust and the Afters. The show was cancelled Saturday. The wind ripped down part of the stage that held the overhead lighting and the damage was so extensive the show could not go on.l
