Oh Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Thursday, August 6th, 2009
Hello hello to all. Once again it’s DJ Ariel with some delicious blogging fun.  This past weekend I went to see Yeah Yeah Yeahs at Northern Lights in Clifton Park, New York. When I first heard about the show I was shocked because I never get the chance to see acts there that I like, so I was really excited to go.

Once when I got there I wasn’t expecting it to be as crowded as it was. The line to get in was so long and didn’t seem like it was moving for a long time. I got there a few minutes after the doors were supposed to open. Something tells me the doors didn’t open until much later than what was said. While standing in a frozen… Read More

Bubblegum Animals and Early 70’s Gymnastics

Sunday, July 26th, 2009
Hello all you fantastic readers this is DJ Ariel with a summer update. I have always said that this summer was going to be the summer for music and I haven’t been let down yet.

A while back our super Music Director, Amanda Stockwell, told me about Black Moth Super Rainbow doing a free show in New York City and was instantly psyched as soon as she told me. I had discovered this magical band in my travels earlier this year but had yet to see them perform live. To say that BMSR is eccentric is an understatement. Their music can be described as pyschedelic/electronic/folk/pop and all their instruments are far from conventional. I’ve also… Read More

Warped Tour!!!

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009
Hey all! It's Durden once again with a recap of our wicked time at Warped Tour. DJ Fuzzy, The Alpha Wolf, Super Rockin' Mister Magic, the beautiful Lia-ison and myself were in attendance representing WAIH! Thanks to the wonderful Amanda, Fuzzy and I were able to get press passes and do a handful of interviews.

Fuzzy and I waited for Lia and Mr. Magic to get there to receive our video camera and then we were off! When we entered, it took us about 15 minutes to find where the press area was because everyone we asked had no idea because they don't like to tell event staff things. So we found it and found the promoter I was set up to see. She… Read More

Drop Dead, Gorgeous “The Hot n’ Heavy”

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009
Hey all! Durden again. I don't know why, but I just love ranting about music so here I go again My new rant is about the new Drop Dead, Gorgeous CD. For those who have ever listened to them, you know that they are very dark, but super intelligent. Their 2007 release, "Worse Than a Fairy Tale" proved that. It was a concept album based around murders in a fictional town, Saylor Lake, Colorado, the band's home state. Each song depicts the brutal murder/rapes accompanied by a web site which helps fans try to find the murderer. But their new CD, "The Hot n' Heavy," proved to be less of an album. I was able to read through the lyrics before I listened… Read More

Hey all! This is Durden doing his first blog ever, for WAIH or otherwise. I hope the summer is going well for everyone and shows are popping up left and right that are amazing! So, for my first blog EVER I would like to take the time to introduce, discuss and honor a band that has been in my top 5 since 2003, Cursive. If you have ever talked to me about music, it is almost guaranteed that you have heard me talk about Cursive. Now Cursive, this is a band which can appeal to everyone. From their first full length, "Such Blinding Stars for Starving Eyes" to their 2009 release "Mama, I'm Swollen", there is a side of Cursive you will love. With every… Read More

Reasonable Doubt

Monday, November 10th, 2008
So, it's Monday night, and i'm just sitting here in the office at WAIH, getting some blogging done.I am here for one main reason....  U.P. made a 'surprise visit' to my floor, and although i was just arriving when he was on his way out, i decided that i should leave. My policy when dealing with authority is as follows,"If your not working with them, avoid them". So if you find that U.P. is visiting your floor more and more, you should, in general, try to be there less and less. Because something will eventually give, the U.P. will visit at the wrong time, when someone is doing something they shouldn't be... and you don't want to be caught… Read More

BDP

Sunday, November 9th, 2008
So, sadly, the Blacklight Dance Party (BPD) has been pushed back to next semester. This doesn't mean it's forgotten though! Everyone is encouraged to keep thinking about new ideas they'd like to see put into it. Last year I (with Jamie) thought of the idea of blacklight bubbles, and they turned out to be my favourite part. Just talking with Bill tonight we realized that blacklight fog would probably the most awesome thing ever heard of on this planet.
But sadly we could not find any sort of thing in production. :'( Read More

The World/Inferno Out-of-Town Friendship Society

Sunday, November 9th, 2008
Saxophonist Peter Hess and singer Jack Terricloth, both bearing with maniacal grins, stepped to the front of the stage to greet the undulating crowd. With three drum sticks between them, they joined drummer Brian Viglione in pounding out the opening beat to "Tattoos Fade"—The World/Inferno Friendship Society's call-to-arms—on a well-worn tom tom. Snarlingly reminding the audience that they'd "do better living more and commemorating less," Jack Terricloth inspired spontaneity in the pit.


The World/Inferno Friendship Society arrived at South Burlington's well known Higher Ground nightclub on Nov. 6, 2008. To this writer's… Read More
