Didn't know Hedberg was ever in Auburn. Lucky fricker.

My freshman year we got Jim Gaffigan

I remember Gaffigan. Didn't go though. The things I remember UPC putting out my freshman year was Ludacris and 311(couldn't play because of a bad storm)

Lucky.
I wish we could snag a comedian like Mike Birbiglia or Dan Cummins.

I'm going to go on a limb and say it's pretty unlikely I ever attend a UPC event. Things would have to change majorly for me to even consider it.

I think in 2007 UPC got Collective Soul/Live to make a tour stop in AU in the fall. Thought that was frickin sweet too.

They got the Wailers one year during Tiger Nights. That was pretty sweet.
ETA: Yonder Mtn String Band too

They had some lower tier rapper last year. Does that count?
Seriously, I don't know what the issue is, but the fraternities here can come up with some decent bands. I'm not sure what the issue is with UPC now.

Dang it's either my eyes or ears bleed. My eyes have bled enough, I take Foster and Thompson.

Young the Giant and Needtobreathe were pretty good last year. That's the only UPC event I've ever made it to.
Posted on 1/29/13 at 7:15 pm to WarSlamEagle
Demetri Martin and Daniel Tosh were both pretty good. I wish I'd gone to see Jim Gaffigan and Tim and Eric though.
The music events left a lot to be desired...

I think they did a decent job while I was there. Its hard for them to pull in very popular bands to a small college town like Auburn. I mean these are students that are trying to contact the bands agent or manager. A lot of the times they will be cut off. Some indie bands are good too but it just depends on who is running the UPC at the time, I guess.
With the comedians, I don't know, it wouldn't be as complicated as bringing in bands. They did good with Tosh and Gaffigan. When I was there from 05-09 it was not bad. I'm not sure how young you all are. The older people probably have seen some good stuff too. It just won be consistent IMO, that's just the way it will be since Auburn is such a small town.

I've been here since 09. I've enjoyed Goo Goo Dolls and Kevin Hart, both were the first year I was here.
