Eagan High School's production crews have been preparing for the concert since early last week. Extra steps are being taken to ensure the concert goes off without a hitch, including various power circuits and sound equipment.

Paul Saxton, head of the IT department at Eagan, also commented on the fact that "the school is having trouble finding enough power for the amount of things wanting to be done at this performance," to which he added, "is probably a good thing."
Nicholas will be performing a three song set for approximately 13 minutes in front of the 2,100-member student assembly.
Although the pepfest is not open to the general public, Eagan Patch will have photos, video and an exclusive interview with Nicholas David following the event.
