I see Omarr’s group New Power Soul is also performing this week. Who’s the new lead singer? [Edited 12/1/17 12:48pm]

they probably replaced the other guy due to the hilarity that ensued concerning his appearance, on the last publicity photo...

I just hope we don’t embarrass ourselves with ridiculously cold weather and tons of snow that week.

i dont think it would be an embarrassment to us at all...people from elsewhere should already be aware and prepared for cold/snow...i think that would even add some regional charm to the festivities

I hate when threads get moved to forums no one frequents. Anyway, saw on Twitter that the Twins are supposedly performing with New Power Soul during their Suoer Bowl performance.

This news deserves a link on the homepage, me thinks.

You think Sheila, The REv and The Time are separate sets on one bill?

.

.

Also where is the full schedule? I want to see the Jets too!

I think they are on the same bill. Sheila said she would have a 15 minute set. I haven't seen the full schedule.

Understood. I live here and I don't think I'm going to go to that. She is supposedly doing a show at the Armory on February 4th. I might do that. It is going to be pretty chaotic downtown, since that is the day of the Super Bowl.

What time would the Sheila E/Rev/Morris & The Time concert start on the 29th? I've Googled and read a few different articles about these Super Bowl concerts downtown but I can't seem to see a start time for them. Thanks in advance if anyone can tell me. I'm so excited for this! Just please don't let it be -30 that night!

On the Super Bowl Live website the times of the event on the 29th are 4:00 to 9:00. not sure what time the bands will start or how early one should get there to get a good spot but that is the official even time. I work 4 blocks away (at the library) and usually get off work at 5:00 however I have arranged to leave at 3:00 this day in order to get over there early and try to get a good spot.

Thank you, sonicfreak! I live in a nearby suburb. I think I'm going to follow your lead and try to get there around 3ish as well to get a good spot. Thanks again for the info I appreciate it.

I wish they would come out with a definitive detailed schedule of the Super Bowl Live concerts. I just noticed that if you go to the site: Super Bowl Live it now says the Revolution are playing "Friday / 27 @ 8:00" (which is wrong right there because Friday is the 26th!) So are they really playing on SATURDAY the 27th or Friday the 26th or Monday the 29th which was previously announced as Prince night??? It is so confusing!!! People want to make plans!!

Site keeps changing. Now it's got a bunch of html code. I think someone is trying to update it but not having a lot of luck. I suspect if we keep checking back it'll all be reavealed soon...

Yeah. All the stuff they were messing with is gone. Still does not have specific times and dates for which bands play when. Just gotta keep waiting I guess...

Regarding the original lead singer, What caused a hilarious reaction to his appearance?
