10 Reasons You Should Come To The Shabbatones' Concert This Thursday At 8pm In Hillel

The Shabbatones, the premier Jewish a cappella group at the University of Pennsylvania, is having its spring concert, #iTones, this Thursday, April 7th at 8pm in Shotel Dubin Auditorium at Hillel! Need a reason to go? ~Scroll down for more~

1. Re-Live the Good ‘ol Days

Giphy

Let's be honest - you all owned an iPod mini, nano, classic at some point in your life. Let's re-live our good 'ol days.

2. Shabbify, PanTorah, and JewTube don’t exist (yet)...

...so this is the closest you can come to having an exclusively-shabbatones listening experience.

3. It's Penn's hottest TA's last concert!

Giphy

That's right: Jack Gindi, voted Penn's hottest TA, will be performing on Thursday. Not only will he be performing, he will be opening the show!!! Which means you should probably get there early if you're a fangirl, or even just one of his math students. The answer to this equation is simple: buy tix ahead of time + arrive a few minutes early = get a great view of your favorite TA singing his heart out.

4. You can still go out after!

Giphy

The Shabbatones concert is at 8 PM, which means you can still make your ~sceney~ downtowns and other commitments (cough cough War of the Roses) in plenty of time!

5. Hillel's dining hall is known as the best food on campus

Giphy

Freshmen: use a meal swipe and then come upstairs for the show! Or should we say swipe right for the Shabbatones???

6. An hour-and-a-half of not studying will NOT ruin your GPA

Giphy

Research shows that busy people get more done. Fill up your calendar by blocking off 8-9:30 on Thursday.

7. You can find the NJB that you've been looking for all of college

Giphy

Plus, telling your bubbe you’re going to a Shabbatones concert is bound to make her really happy <3

8. You don't have to be able to sing...

Giphy

…though the Shabbatones will ask for audience participation during parts. Unsure of what this ‘participation’ entails? Come to find out.

9. Though Rebecca Black says gotta get down on Friday…

Giphy

Rebecca BROWN says gotta get down on Thursday (at Hillel).

10. THEY ONLY HAVE ONE SHOW

Giphy

They’re only doing a full set once this semester. THIS ISN’T MASK AND WIG, PEOPLE; The Shabbatones don’t perform every weekend, so catch them Thursday or miss out big time. Tickets are 10 dollars on locust and in Hillel, or $8 for groups of 8 or more.
