Boost Mobile Rock Corps Invades Atlanta's Fox Theater

Posted by Jason Dinsmore on Sunday, June 10, 2007 , under , , , , , , , , , |




Saturday was a very busy day for BRiSON & the rest of the A. We couldn't make Big Tigger's events, nor could we get tothe finale party for the infamous Club 112, but we were on deck for Boost Mobile Rock Corps' 2nd annual Gotta Give 2 Get concert series at the Fox Theater. This concert isn't the only concert where American currency isn't even good enough to buy a ticket, but it is the only concert that still makes you earn the right to attend. In order to step foot in the door you must first offer four hours of your time completing community service at one of the many projects held by BMRC around the city; projects include painting, gardening, and other duties that are always needed at various shelters, food pantries, and community centers around the US. Participants had to log on to www.boostmobilerockcorps.com and select the service project of their choice, once the service was complete each participant recieved one ticket to one of the only concerts that who's purpose is way bigger than mere entertainment. Performers included Rich Boy featuring Keri Hilson (of The Clutch), Rick Ross, Huey, Eve, Lil' Wayne, and Busta Rhymes; headlining the show for the 2nd year was Atlanta's own Young Jeezy. If you missed the opportunity to get out there and lend a hand, log onto the BMRC website and get involved in a surrounding state; it's well worth the experience!










Stay posted to BRiSON throughout the week for interviews and footage from the BMRC media room!!!





POSER OR NOT?

One artist wasn't named on A-Town's BMRC concert's roster, I'm not even sure he was confirmed to perform...it was very obvious he wasn't there for any positive publicity, as he was a little camera shy before the show. Can you guess the face behind (or really in front) of the faceless rapper??? Maybe all of the recent Atlanta features gave it away...POSER



Still Giving 2 Get in 2007: Boost Mobile RockCorps Returns to Exchange Service for Tickets

Posted by Jason Dinsmore on Wednesday, January 10, 2007 , under , , , , , |



And again it's on! Boost Mobile & RockCorps is teaming up again for what was one of last summer's hottest concerts...and it was a series! City to city various artists graced the stage for 1000's of fans to give a free concert. Well it wasn't exactly free; I mean you couldn't buy tickets, it wasn't that type of party. To get into this concert, you had to lend 4 hours of your time perfoming community service in one of the many chosen spots throughout the cities.


In Atlanta, last year's stage was rocked by Slim Thug, Paul Wall, The Game, Young Jeezy and more. I wonder who will bless the stage this year...any thoughts? Really, who would you want to see right now? I know my choices: TIP, Dro, Lupe, maybe a Chamillionaire, definitely a HOV. But who's hot enough to get you out of the bed to do community service? I know everybody's saying, "it doesn't take anybody to get me to do community service". But let's be honest, we all love to be compensated for the work we do...and since they're already offering the concert, why not bring the hottest artists. So hit us up and let us know "where you at" and who you want to see.
