Get ready for the 2010 Campus Consciousness Tour

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , , , , on April 14, 2010 by cvalenzuela

The half rock tour and half environmental campaign that is the Campus Consciousness Tour will be arriving to the Baltimore area in the coming weeks.

The tour will be highlighted by Ben Harper and his band Relentless7 who will be performing on Tuesday, April 20 at 6 p.m. and rap sensation Drake who is coming on Wednesday, May 5 at 5:30 p.m.

Both concerts, which will also feature several other musical guests, will be held at the Pier Six Pavilion in Baltimore.

The admission for each event is $42.50. You can buy your tickets here.

Towson University is sponsoring the Drake concert so if you’re a Towson student you can get $5 off if you buy your tickets at the University Union box office and use your student ID.

What’s great about this tour, other than the obviously amazing musical lineup, is that it’s sponsored by an equally amazing non-profit organization called Reverb.

Reverb’s goal in this musical initiative is to not only entertain college students nearing the end of a mentally-grueling school year but also to educate and inspire them to be more environmentally conscious.

The tour will include many greening elements and programs such as eco-villages, bio-diesel fueled buses and trucks, locally sourced organic food, daytime activities on each campus, recycling and compost stations, and many more features aimed to drive people to take action toward a more sustainable future for all of us.

So if you’re planning on going to one of these concerts, or even both, make sure not only to take in all the great music but also everything else this constructive tour has to offer.
