Rock group Yellowcard will perform in the Kellogg Gym on April 19 at 7 p.m. |
Rock group Yellowcard will perform in the Cal Poly Pomona Kellogg Gym on Wednesday, April 19, at 7 p.m. as part of the 2006 Virgin College Mega Tour. Following the double-platinum success of Ocean Avenue, Yellowcard will be supporting its brand new release Lights and Sounds.
The Virgin College Mega Tour will also feature a FREE daytime village from 1-6 p.m. in the Bronco Student Center that includes performances by emerging artists Eleanor Academia, Jorges, Taylor McKenna and Strike.Fire.Fall. In addition, games and prizes (such as chances to win a Pontiac G6 and passes to the Yellowcard sound check) are available throughout the day.
Yellowcard's Lights and Sounds explores the highs and lows that can follow the fast track to success, something the band has experienced first hand after their singles Ocean Avenue, Way Away and Only One were hits on MTV and Top 40 radio throughout 2004. Opening for Yellowcard are Mae and Over It.
This concert is being presented by Goldenvoice and Cal Poly Pomona's Associated Students Inc.
Tickets for Yellowcard's evening concert are available through Ticketmaster (students who use the code “STUDY” will receive a discount). Discounted tickets for Cal Poly Pomona students will be available in the university's Games Room Etc. for $22. Discounted tickets are also available at The Glasshouse, 200 W. Second St. in Downtown Pomona. At that location, students with identification can receive tickets for $22, and others can purchase tickets for $24.50.
