Eighties rockers Joan Jett and the Blackhearts will headline the USG's spring concert on Dean's Date, bringing rock n'roll to campus just as students have handed in their final papers and problem sets.
USG president Rob Biederman '08 said Jett will perform on Tuesday, May 15, at 5:15 p.m. in Dod Courtyard.
Jett is best known for "I Love Rock N' Roll," which was the top single on the Billboard charts for seven weeks in 1982. It is Billboard's #28 song of all time.
Last year's spring concert performer was the alternative band Guster.
