Canadian indie-rockers The New Pornographers will be this semester’s Large-Scale Event, according to LSE Committee Chairman Douglas Gilchrist-Scott ’09. The event will be held on November 10th in LPAC.

Gilchrist-Scott explained that “The New Pornographers were chosen following our survey conducted last spring. The survey showed that the Swarthmore population overwhelmingly desired to have an indie rock band come.” While no other acts have been booked as of yet, Gilchrist-Scott assured the Daily Gazette that there will be another LSE come springtime.
