Although the music festival that took place yesterday afternoon was filled with excitement and a pre-homecoming game rousing, students are noticing that there was a glaring disappointment: Drake Bell was absent.

Drake Bell was scheduled to perform as the closing act for High School Nation, but was unable to attend, leaving many questions in the minds of RHS students.

According to one of the producers of High School Nation, Drake Bell will be making an appearance at Rangeview for a lunchtime performance on a later date.

The inside source told the Raider Review that Drake Bell is the only singer who does not travel on the tour bus. It is common for him to miss High School Nation festivals but is quick to make it up to the students.

Senior Josephine Koch says, “I was just mad… I was waiting for him and he never showed up. He’s the only reason why I even went.”

Students are looking forward to the promised performance, but are disheartened that his was unable to sing before the homecoming game.
