What Might Happen At This Year's Spring Concert

Walk by Gampel this Saturday night at about 10 p.m. and you'll probably feel a lot of bass and certainly hear a little "shawty got low, low, low, low," as T-Pain and Flo Rida wrap up their headlining set.
If all goes well, hopefully I won't be disappointed with the concert. It would be awesome if, for instance, something really exciting happens like T-Pain being escorted off campus by UConn police (if you don't know what I'm referring to, Google T-Pain and Quinnipiac) or if Flo Rida limits his rapping time.
While neither of those things will probably happen, I've compiled a top-10 list of songs and events that would make the show more enjoyable.
10. Flo Rida Reliving His
Days With 2 Live Crew
Fun fact - as a teenager, Flo Rida, born Tramar Dillard, worked with Miami-based rap group 2 Live Crew (you might know them from their 1989 hit "Me So Horny" from the album "As Nasty As They Wanna Be" - really classy stuff). He started his own amateur group, the Groundhoggz, so maybe he can pull out some of his "classics."
9. "Yo Stomach"
T-Pain feat. Tay Dizm
If you haven't heard this gem from T-Pain's "Epiphany" LP, definitely check it out. The song is about T-Pain's healthy obsession with the female abdominal region, except his version is a bit classier. The song begins with him discussing how others may like other parts of the female anatomy, but the reason he is singing that song is because he has well, give it a listen and find out for yourself. Tay Dizm will be there on Saturday, so this performance isn't out of the realm of possibility.
8. Flo Rida Not Attempting To Fill In For Kanye West If T-Pain Happens To Sing His Portions Of "Good Life"
Please, oh please.
7. Some "Bring Da Ruckus"
I'm sure everyone is familiar with this Wu-Tang classic from their debut album, "Enter The 36 Chambers." Sure, only one member of the Clan will be present, but at least some sort of crowd chant can go on. "Ya'll got beef? Better bring da ruckus / Wu-Tang Clan ain't nothin' to f--- with!"
