Auburn students asked, and the University Program Council listened.
UPC has organized Auburn Airwaves, a spring concert featuring Train, Hot Chelle Rae and Green River Ordinance to preform Thursday, April 25, with doors opening at 6 p.m.
Free tickets will be available for students only starting Wednesday, April 10th at noon at Auburn.edu/UPC.
Emily Armstrong, director of major entertainment, was in charge of organizing the event.
"Green River Ordinance will open and then Hot Chelle Rae and then Train will be the headliner so they'll be the last act to go," Armstrong said. "We'd really love to sell out the arena and have everyone that can fit be there."
UPC started planning the event at the end of last semester to make sure that things would be ready in time, Armstrong said.
Although Auburn is a smaller venue, all of the artists were flexible and easy to work with, Armstrong said.
UPC had students answer surveys so that they could get a feel for who the student body was interested in seeing.
Armstrong said they made sure this was what the student body wanted and that they chose artists that students would be interested in and have a good time at. "They were great, they seemed really excited to come to Auburn," Armstrong said.
