Characterizing the crowd at Dinosaur Jr.'s show is a bit problematic: on one hand, the girl selling CDs at the back of the room had the requisite face piercings and don't-mess-with-me attitude; on the other hand, the mosh pit was full of drunken frat-boy types in Abercrombie cords and button-down shirts. Although periodic stage-rushes interrupted the general quietude, the scrunchie-clad and turtlenecked coeds who surfed the crowd looked like something out of 90210-goes-to-Seattle. It was puzzling, to say the least...

...points, The Mollusk strays from the misguided water creature stories, coming alive on songs that happily reject oceanic representation for unadorned raucousness and personal sentiment. "The Blarney Stone" is an Irish pub romp of sex and drunken chicanery ("Who's that girl, that pretty young thing/After I fuck her she'll get up and sing/Sharpen your boot, bludgeon your eye/The Blarney Stone brings a tear to me eye") that sticks out like a sore thumb. Tapping into a similar stylistic tradition, "Waving My Dick In The Wind" hastily ponders loneliness in a humorous jaunt...

...Banquo is what makes the character so much missed. Andres Ramos-Nolasco '99 plays a rather flat Duncan, and Noah Feinstein '99 appears at the end as a swashbuckling, hyperemotional Macduff. Becca Lowenhaupt '99, who plays several minor roles, makes a remarkable impact in her scene as the drunken, half-asleep Porter called upon to open Macbeth's gate for a pair of messengers. Her brash physical comedy is as effective here as it was in her role as Bottom in last spring's A Midsummer Night's Dream, and had the audience in stitches...

...book, Jen-X (for which she was reportedly paid more than $1 million), McCarthy confesses with unstarlike candor that she wet her bed until she was seven, spread a rumor that a girl at her school was a lesbian and peed in a guy's bed after a drunken date. Also that her breasts are fake and she dropped out of college after a petty theft. And, scariest of all, that she had crushes on Mr. Rogers and Erik Estrada in her youth. For many, this will be more information than they ever wanted to know about anyone, let alone...
