W.I.L.D. date set for mid-September
W.I.L.D. will take place on Friday, September 16, Team 31 announced via Facebook and Twitter.
W.I.L.D., or Walk In Lay Down, a concert that takes place once a semester, is earlier this year than in the past. The fall concert has been in October every year since 2007, when it was scheduled for September 29.
Past W.I.L.D. headliners include Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Wale, Major Lazer, the Cold War Kids and the Black Keys.
Team 31, the group that organizes W.I.L.D., will announce the headliner at CPC happy hour on September 1.
This year, the concert will be on the same day as Balloon Glow, a St. Louis tradition that brings hundreds of people to Forest Park to watch 70 hot air balloons inflate in preparation for the Great Balloon Race the next day.
Team 31 does not choose the date of WILD. The administration chooses the date to avoid conflicting with other major events on campus.
Same night as Dayglow as well. Competing with too much..hurts everyone
Well this is stupid. The same day as the Balloon Glow? Keep WILD in October. Once again, Team 31 disappoints.
Does this mean they got a really good headliner that could only perform this early in the year…?
