Chance to win free Jay-Z tickets

Union Program council and the Residence Halls association are conducting a free music event called Spring Fling, for all the students of CSUN, on Thursday, February 11, 2010 at the Residence Halls’ Lawn in the evening from 5p.m to 8 p.m.

The event will have exciting opportunities for the audiences to win free tickets to the Jay-Z concerts and other events. Not only entry but also eatables from In-n-Out, popcorn etc will also be free, along with the screening of the pre-home release movie, “The Couple’s retreat”. A pre-release movie is one which is no more in theatres but is not available for home viewing as yet. Moreover, it is the only pre-release home movie that comes along with subtitles so it is convenient for the audibly impaired students of the university. The students who will visit the concert will be eligible to win two tickets to the concert at the Staples Centre on March 26.

Though the residents of the city are invited to the concert, but the offer to win Jay-Z tickets is open to only the students who show a valid identity card. The success of the event will make it a semi-annual event that will be held at the beginning of every semester.

The primary funds for the event came from the organizers themselves, UPC and RHA. The event is organized with the main aim of getting students together to network and socialize as it will be in their interest. The organizers are really optimistic about the success of the event.

Tameside borough to go ahead with Quartet Contests

It was announced a few days back that due to lack of adequate funds, Tameside Metropolitan Council will not be sponsoring the British Open Solo and Quartet Championships this year. But now the council has reversed its decisions and is supporting the British Open Solo and Quartet Championship with full fervor. The event is scheduled to take place on November 7, 2010 at Dunkfield Town Hall.

The council reviewed a lot of other alternatives which would have allowed them to continue supporting the event in the current year as well as in the years to come despite the huge financial constraints it is currently facing.

The Championship is among the best music events held by the Tameside borough annually. Other mega concerts and competitions include the ‘Splendid Weekend’ and other state-of-the-art music event which are quite affordable.

Councilor Roy Oldham, the Executive Leader, Tameside Council spoke of the council’s intention to encourage such events in the future without any reduction or lack of devotion. He also encouraged the borough’s youth to actively participate in such events and concerts, and prove their mettle. It is the musical heritage of Tame Side which the council wants to uphold and maintain through these music competitions and contests.

The people of Tameside are no less excited by the announcement as they get a chance to revel in the glory and fun of these competitions and concerts. Its one of the most important events that is eagerly looked forward to by the residents in this part of the world.
