The Undergraduate Government of Boston College (UGBC) has announced that rapper Kid Cudi will headline this year's fall concert, with an opening act by rap duo LMFAO.

 

The concert will take place September 18 in Conte Forum.

 

Patrick Raab, UGBC vice president and A&S '11, said that this year's fall concert planning has been a joint effort of his office with that of UGBC Directors of Comedy and Concert Alex Scull, CSOM '11, and AJ Ferrera, A&S '13.

 

"The space time in Conte Forum continues to be very scarce due to the numerous athletic schedules and events that take place," Raab said. "This left our directors with the challenge of synching the busy schedules of performing artists with the one weekend that Conte Forum was available for us to use."  

 

The UGBC has not yet announced details for ticket sales.
