SAB without concert act

With only three weeks left until Homecoming, it is still unclear who will be performing at this year’s concert, which is set to take place on Friday, Sept. 24.

Student Activities Board was planning to book rap artist B.o.B.; however, these plans fell through. He was the first act that they had tried to book.

“It was just that he didn’t accept our bid,” SAB president Stephanie Hart said.

For past homecoming concerts,the group has hosted bands such as Guster, Jack’s Mannequin and Eric Hutchinson.

The group usually picks out multiple acts that they would like to see perform and go from there, but they can only put in one bid at a time. They started planning for the event back in May and did a lot of work over the summer.

“We have a bid in for another act which looks promising,” Hart said.

While SAB possibly has another act in the works, she could not comment on who it might be.

As for what will happen if this act falls through, Hart explained that they have backups. She has no doubts that they will be able to get a wellknown act.

In the event that they cannot, however, she said that they would book local bands and that she is not worried.

“We will make it as fun as possible,” Hart said.
