The Tufts online community has recently been abuzz with rumors about possible Spring Fling performers.
While many listings about Drake’s college tour schedule have for a long time shown him playing at an undisclosed location in Massachusetts on May 1 — the date of Spring Fling — a recent announcement by Francis and the Lights has only intensified students’ speculation.
The announcement states that Francis and the Lights will be touring with Drake and K-OS for five weeks. The part of this announcement that has sparked off most discussion is the listing for May 1, which specifies Medford as the location of the gig.
Concert Board is in the process of finalizing contracts with performers and will make an official announcement once this process is completed.
