North Dakota State students awoke today to an upsetting email regarding the spring concert. Those in charge at Campus Attractions admitted they had not booked the well-known band Bowling For Soup, but instead lined up the cover band called Bowling for Soop.

When asked how they could have made such a large mistake, they simply responded the man on the phone sounded just like the lead singer, Jaret Reddick. Campus Attractions also admitted they didn’t read the fine print in the contract.

According to the email, NDSU has already paid the non-refundable booking fee of $20,000 to have the band play May 5. Because of this, the university will still have the cover band perform.

We have received a lot of emails and messages from concerned students who want to know more about the band, so we decided to do a bit of research. The results were shocking.

Bowling for Soop is a one-man band located in the town of Slickpoo, Idaho. Yes, that is a really a town in Idaho. Google it.

What may be even more disturbing is that Randy Scottsmith, the only band member, likes to go by the name of Little Re-dick. An ode to the lead vocalist of Bowling for Soup, Jaret Reddick.

Randy Scottsmith is 48-years-old, enjoys spending time with his cats and creates my little pony claymations, according to his Instagram account, RandyLittleRe-dick.

President Dean Bresciani also sent an email to students in regard to the spring concert. He encouraged students to remain positive and to have an open mind. At the end of the email, he gently reminded students these tickets were non-refundable, so it is recommended to attend.

“At the very least, you will have yourself a good laugh,” President Bresciani said.
