Frosh Me Please!

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Well folks, it’s that time of year again! Back to the books…but not before some rockin’ out right?

Basically, some university / college students got some really good bands playing for them this year.

UofT gets Tokyo Police Club and Cadence Weapon. September 5 @ Back Campus.

Ryerson gets Kardinal Offishall and Thunderheist. September 5 @ Toronto Island

Humber gets k-os and Girl Talk (wow). September 10 @ North Campus Amphitheatre

York gets Stars (very jealous). September 16 @ Rexall Centre.

Queen’s gets Sam Roberts.

UOIT gets Bedouin Soundclash. Sept 4 @ EP Taylors campus pub.

Overall, 2008 looks like a fierce frosh concert competition! In my opinion having Bedouin sooth my ears will be a great “pre-Vfest” treat!
