Harvard has never been a paradise for rock and roll. Look at any bulletin board: around here, cellos are preferable to guitars, bhangra has a greater following than any one campus band, and a cappella concerts fill Sanders Theatre on a regular basis.Is this because we, as a student body, possess an innate inability to rock out? Or is there some precondition for rock missing that, if present, would reverse the bulldozers’ direction and convert Harvard into an extension of rock-friendly Allston?Intuition makes the former seem unlikely, as Harvard has produced its fair share of successful...

David Evans (yet to be called the Edge) was a top student in his Mount Temple class, but he had been spending spare time "strumming away...
...warehouse outside of Tulsa. (Laughs). I don't know. It doesn't get easier for me. It gets harder, because I'm really close with my readers. My website bulletin board is the place I interact with my readers. I do a lot of signings. I feel like they're my friends. And I don't want to disappoint anybody. I kind of write from a place of fear, which may not be the best way to do it. I always want to try to bring something fresh to every book. It's getting harder instead of easier. I feel...
