TCNJ

27 SPRING 2023 We've compiled all the acts who've rocked at The College of New Jersey. Most, like hall of famer Dionne Warwick and iconic emo band Paramore came by way of the College Union Board, the student-run org that books big, annual campus concerts. Others, like little-known Tom Waits in 1976, found their own way to spaces like the Rathskeller or Rhodora Theater. Highlighted in blue are some names that we wish could have fit in "TCNJ's Band Slam." 1961 Miriam Makeba and Chad Mitchell Trio 1962 Joey Dee and the Starliters 1963 Jay and the Americans 1964 Carlos Montoya • Bob Dylan 1965 The Isley Brothers • Judy Collins 1966 Stan Getz 1967 Buffy Sainte-Marie • The New Christy Minstrels 1968 The Lettermen 1969 The Talbot Brothers of Bermuda • Mason Williams 1970 Dionne Warwick • Constellations • Mungo Jerry • Alexander Rabbit • Steppenwolf • Travis Justis 1971 Seals & Crofts • The Byrds • J.F.
