...remember getting drunk with these people and the idea of these people in positions of responsibility is like, 'Oh my God!'" says Nicklaus, who was also a Crimson editor...
...Britney variety. And it was Halloween, so a majority of the teens were dressed in costumes, adding a surreal flavor to an already strange night.What were probably hired actors stood outside the venue with sandwich boards proclaiming "America Will Burn" and handing out humorous pamphlets declaring that God does not play the bongos. The theme of the concert I was to discover later was the end of the millennium. I knew that my friend and I, two newcomers to Guster, might as well settle in for the duration...
...Faust legend has been reincarnated in myriad forms: Faust as 16th century necromancer, Faust damned to hell, Faust saved by the grace of God, Faust as 20th century composer. The latest adaptation of Christopher Marlowe's Dr. Fautus, performed at the Loeb Ex last weekend, added a refreshing sense of vitality and humor to the tried and true theme.

Although Marlowe probably intended to have the conclusion--Faustus heading for a fiery death--to be quite clear, the resulting ambiguity, partly based...
...time for music, too--sure, there were one or two good groups, and I like 80s classics like "Too Shy" and "867-5309", but genres like hair metal (Stryper, Dokken, etc.) were a travesty, and those fake drum sounds that everyone used in the mid and late 80s were god-awful. Bear in mind though that I'm biased in judging decades by the fact that my fashion and music tastes froze in about 1982. However, to my credit I do find the 90s fashion and music quite palatable on the whole...
