PSA: Yardfest Artist to be Announced at Noon
•
Students cheer on the band “Hot Breakfast,” who opened for Janelle Monae on Sunday night at the Tercentenary Theater.
Maybe it was just me (aka it was definitely just me), but when I got that CEB email today with the subject “Your Yardfest Artist is…” and then “noon.” in the biggest and coolest font, I looked up “noon band,” and was directed to a Facebook band page with 155 likes. What, not even a legit band with a Myspace page? But then I realized that noon referred to the time. THIS YEAR’S YARDFEST ARTIST WILL BE ANNOUNCED TODAY AT NOON AND HOPEFULLY THAT DOESN’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE RANDOM BAND I FOUND!
I have been taking bets on this year’s big artist and I’m not about to lose, so you saw it here first.
Here’s my top five most likely to come through*.
1) Nicki Minaj
2) Lil Wayne
3) Drake
4) Beyoncé
5) Jay-Z
For real though, at 12:00 p.m./midday/noon/whatever is least confusing for you, WE WILL KNOW WHO WILL BE AT YARDFEST. Keep checking up here to see if anyone can beat Janelle Monae.
*If I am incorrect, I will have my own personal concert after Yardfest, during which I will Only Truffle Butter with a little Love On Top.
