LMP Notes Ken Harris Bill Hall I suppose everyone is getting curious about this semester's major concert about now. Well, to be honest, we're not too sure about it yet either, but expect to know by the time this goes to press. You see, thc entertainment business is funny that way-you're neversure about what's going to happen until it docs. Anyway-I'd like to say that we've bid on some great bands but there's simply none out there to hire right now. What can be said is that John Cougar has other things to do (although he told the nation he would be here), we cannot afford Van Halen and Michael Jackson is still laughing. Congratulations to our newest producers-Ann Campbell. Mark McNair, and Dean Wooten. We are- glad you're with us and hope that your experience with IMP is a great one. Student elections are coming up soon, and that means thc selection of a new president and vice-president of Last Minute Productions. There will be some good, qualified candidates in this year's race, so we urge everyone to come out and vote in the SGA elections this April.
