On March 22, 2011 the Hillel concert chair, Izzy Shocket, and I ran our first Daniel Pearl Music Day concert in Burruss Auditorium. Performing was The Illiance, an undercover rap group from New York, The White Panda, a mash up DJ group, and Chiddy Bang, a quickly up and coming rap group that is popular with many college students.
Daniel Pearl Music Day celebrates the power of music to reaffirm our commitment to tolerance and humanity.
Overall, we were very pleased with the turnout of the night. This was The Illiances' first show and they started the concert out with a great performance. The White Panda was up next and started the dance party. Last up was Chiddy Bang. There was a bit of a problem when this time came because one of the two group members, Chiddy, had missed two flights that day and was running late. Thankfully, he arrived after only a few minutes of stalling and Chiddy finished the concert with a "bang" and pleased their fans. We are looking forward to putting on our next concert this fall!
