The festival begins at 11 a.m., ] when the local band 49 Reasons ; takes the stage. "We wanted to start with 49 i Reasons because they have a : harder edge ? they'll be kind of a wake-up call to the campus," John ; Chism, chairperson of CPU's Contemporary Sounds Committee, i said. i After 49 Reasons finishes an ap- | proximately 45-minute set, the At- ] lanta quintet Lava Love will play , its set, supporting their latest al- | bum "Aphrodisia." l ce\M I f V / , jh i im ' i i f i i \ *I ' ! ^ ^''* [ ' ' iQr |C\ til x I p \ E R S CLEANING AWARD WINNER CKS n i ( 1 V^jjL * 1 f 'I " .-J 111?

The Toasters' albums have routinely made top-10 ska charts across the country. "The Toasters have never been to this area of the country before, and we wanted some different music," Chism said.
