Mike Posner for Main Event 2014

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Juniata chapter.

 

Breaking News! This week the Juniata Activities Board announced Mike Posner as our Major event of the year. Student reactions were mixed, but I for one, am extremely excited. A diehard Mike Posner fan since his 2010 hit “Cooler Than Me”, I vow to sing at least 3 Posner hits at Memories karaoke nights prior to his arrival on campus. I know you’re all excited….

Referencing “Cooler Than Me” in a 2010 interview in the UK, Posner stated, “A lotta people don’t know I recorded that song while I was still a student, and that I recorded it in my dorm-room on an extremely cheap microphone! So to now be hearing it on the radio in The States and over here [UK] is very special for me.” It’s pretty cool that he’ll be making a trip back to college to perform it for us!

Let’s not forget Posner’s opening act- Kris Allen! Allen is best known as the winner of the eighth season of American Idol and his lead song, “Live Like We’re Dying.” – trust me you, know it. Since these artists will be on campus I’m definitely making sure I update my music library and download their top songs.
