Gods
of Metal Leave Mark in Lubbock
by Jacqui Streety, editor-in-chief
On
Easter Sunday, I stood in line outside of South Beach and waited to see my
favorite band. Not that I hadn’t seen them before, however, I knew that this
time, the show would be special. It seemed peculiar to me that Lamb of God
would be playing in the Bible Belt on Easter Sunday and even more peculiar
that the show was hosted by KFMX, who doesn’t even play Lamb of God.
'Small
Town Kid' living large - Eli Young Band reaches diverse crowd
by Jacqui Streety, editor-in-chief
I received a
CD in the mail not too long ago and was sort of hesitant to

surprisingly something that I liked.

Mute'
by Margot' Gonzales, staff writer
A
follow-up album is always incredibly difficult, but not for The Mars Volta.
There
has finally been a second album that I can say is just as awesome as the
first. The Mars Volta has once again unleashed the talent that everyone
knows they are capable of. The newest release, “Frances the Mute,” has
given listeners something to blast in the car.
'Motorcycle Diaries' a fun ride
by Chris Byram, staff writer
“The
Motorcycle Diaries” is one of those rare films that makes your heart almost
burst with spirit.
It is a
dramatization of the youthful adventures of Ernesto Guevera de la Serna
(played by Gael Garcia Bernal), a restless and ideological medical student,
and Alberto Granado (played by Rodrigo de la Serna), an equally restless
biochemistry student, through the South American countryside.
'Provence' grants escape for readers
by Grayson Thomas, staff writer
Feeling blue and stressed out from holding two jobs and a full school
schedule, I found myself opening “A Year In Provence” by Peter Mayle
every time that I needed to “get away.”
'Frozen' gives reality check to
audience, creates milestone for play
by Ray Buffington, entertainment editor
Child
pornography, murder, sexual abuse, rape… Uncomfortable yet? These acts of
hate and anger are performed on a daily basis, yet there are so few who
stand up to do something to prevent them from happening.
