Gym Class Heroes to Perform Free Concert in Chicago
With the amount of sporadic Gym Class Heroes concerts popping up all over the States, Billboard recently announced yet another one scheduled for early this April. The band will be playing as part of the first Samsung Sound Check free concert series, with a free show at Park West in Chicago on April 10. Only select tickets will be made available thought radio promotion and online registration from a web site that isn’t even up yet. Not sure what the deal is with that, but check in with Samsung as early as this week, because according to the Billboard article the site should be up very soon.
Also performing throughout the Samsung Sound Check concert series will be Ne-Yo on March 27 in New Orleans, Jimmy Eat World in Charlotte, N.C., on March 30, Paramore in Houston on April 29, and Sean Kingston in Las Vegas on May 14. Check out the entire article on Billboard.com and if you live in any of those areas, perhaps local radio stations are promoting the events.
The news of the Gym Class Heroes concert should be no surprise to fans, as the band has scheduled a bunch of free shows and college performances lately. It is undoubtedly to help spread the word about their upcoming full-length “The Quilt”, due this summer. At which point, the band will be heading out on the Vans Warped Tour for most of the summer. It can be speculated they will tour again after that, though this is just an educated guess on my part.
