FIRST Finale 2015
 
Hey Guys,

I just checked the FIRST Championship website and it looks like FIRST is going with a Concert format similar to what they did in 2011.

The performers are:
  • Boys Like Girls - American rock band
  • Christina Grimmie - Singer-songwriter, Competitor on NBC's The Voice
  • Andy Caldwell - American electronic house music DJ

Here's the description of the Finale from their website:

Quote:

We are excited to announce the FIRST Championship Finale entertainment! This year, Boys Like Girls will be playing LIVE with opening act, Christina Grimmie. There will also be a special appearance by Andy Caldwell. The event is FREE with attendee badge and will follow Closing Ceremony at the Edward Jones Dome from 6:30 PM to 10 PM. There will be food for sale at the venue and no tickets sold at the door
That description can be found here: http://www.firstchampionship.org/fir...ship/first-fun

Should be interesting.

Anyone know what an "attendee badge" is?

When your team main or alternate contact checks in at pit admin, my understanding is that they will receive a bunch of badges for their team - they're requiring that everyone be individually registered this year and they'll get a badge with their name on it.

Boys Like Girls singing their songs about heroine and being drunk is super appropriate for young FLL children.

Too bad they missed out on the opportunity to book Lou Reed. :rolleyes:

Kraftwerk is still around.



Though they may be more appropriate for the Volunteer Social.

I have heard of exactly none of these artists. But I'll take the general fan[boy/girl]ing in the thread to say this is a good thing. :)

Yet another reason to wish my team qualified -_-

I was an FLL team member at the 2011 FIRST Championship. The Black Eyed Peas concert was good, but I didn't feel it was entirely appropriate for young children. From my YouTube research on the aforementioned artists, I believe they are even less appropriate. I hope in the future FIRST chooses artists that support quality values, not the "one last night" mindset.

Boys like girls is probably comparable to Simple Plan...

If you need an older reference I don't know if I can help ;P
