Kick, Push

Dillo Day is around the corner, Northwestern's pseudo music/beer festival. Usually the music sucks or occurred way before any college student was born - The Wailers, George Clinton and the Parliament Funk, or Northwestern short changes the student body and signs bands for a half hour set - Ben Folds. Well, finally someone good is coming to this college - hip-hop phenom, Chicago born Lupe Fiasco, Philly's own hip-hop band the Roots, and eclectic 90s rockers CAKE. Like most other college students, who dream of a life of beer and quality music, I am very excited.

Student DJ's, a battle of the band winner, and various acapella groups will also perform throughout the day, but the night block is the most incredible. You need a Wildcard to get in or you could sneak passed the guards or scuba dive up Lake Michigan.
Here is the schedule:
12:30-1:00
