Day 5 brought the band back to North Dakota. The morning began with a very icy trip to a concert in Hazen. Following that, the band proceeded to Mandan for its final concert of tour 2003. An interesting tidbit of information: the band was scheduled to open its tour with a concert in Mandan two years ago, but had to cancel the concert to play for President Bush's visit to Fargo.
