Hoping to see the likes of Something Corporate or Chevelle at this year’s Bumstock festival? Unfortunately neither band will be attending. Something Corporate will be nowhere near the area of University of Maine in April, and Chevelle wanted more than the Bumstock Executive Committee could afford.

And so, about two weeks ago, the BEC began considering RCA Records’ Eve 6. As of last Thursday they had confirmed and paperwork is now being finalized.

“Eve 6 is popular, they have good music, they will be in our area and they have a good reputation for college concerts,” Erin Smith, the director of Bumstock 2004, said.

The decision for this band comes after more than a dozen different bands were considered, ranging in genre and style.

“We looked into a lot of bands that students mentioned, but the main problem we ran into is that almost none of the suggested bands are touring this spring,” Smith said.
