Ludacris May Still Perform at Tenn. School
Ludacris might perform a homecoming concert at East Tennessee State University after all, despite the city's refusal to let him perform at Freedom Hall.
The university is trying to hold the concert at the school's Mini Dome instead.
"We have been talking with the fire marshal's office today and working through whatever stipulations they would place on us if we were to have the concert," Wilsie Bishop, vice president for administration, said Friday.
Whether the concert goes on will depend on the ability to come to an agreement with the performer, because organizers had already contacted his talent agency to cancel the Oct. 27 show.
The school's homecoming committee booked Ludacris after raising the student activity fee from $4 per semester to $20 last school year to accommodate such events. Students were polled about performers they would like to see in concert, and Ludacris was the first on the resulting list who agreed to appear.
City officials cited security concerns in denying the Ludicris performance.
