...performance of the staple at Avalon made clear why this is so. The song started out slowly, practically inaudible over the roars of an adoring, drunken crowd. As the song picked up, both the crowd and the band began to get more and more frenzied, repeating the tongue-twisting chorus “Mary Mac’s mother’s making Mary Mac marry me/ My mother’s making me marry Mary Mac!” over and over again. As the crowd struggled to keep up with the ever quickening pace of the lyrics, singer...
...centrepiece “Clint Eastwood,” which Del graced with a different rap than the album version. Yet, despite Del’s exhortations, the audience didn’t exactly rock out, and was even a little hesitant to join in the infinitely crowd-worthy chorus, even when Albarn called repeatedly for the audience to sing along.

...scrutiny is not the only piece of aggressive journalism to appear since the scandal surfaced. Indeed, a few of my fellow columnists have, in these very pages, condemned the pair for everything from social climbing to stupidity, before opining, with great conviction, that they get what they deserve. This chorus of criticism has been door-dropped daily in front of Suzanne’s and Randy’s rooms (they’re both still on campus) and when they wake up in the morning they have the unfortunate privilege of knowing what the rest of us can only...
