...Ancient Eight slate wore on, the Crimson experienced the highest of highs—a 6-5 win over Cornell on April 4 to hand the Big Red its first Ivy loss, a dominant sweep of Brown last Sunday in which the offense put up 23 runs, taking two from the Big Green in Hanover to gain the division lead—and the lowest of lows...
...clubs and gathering places in the golden tourist triangle that includes Acapulco, Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo. Indeed, on Saturday, Acapulco had seemed totally normal: everything was open.

Exusamwa combined manic punk with a performance art aesthetic—Sawyer spent the entire set in a wheelchair, her face bandaged and her voice howling, while her bandmates all wore red-stained OR scrubs—and Quits played experimental noise music. Daniel Striped Tiger played a cleaner, jazz-infused brand of post-hardcore, while L’Antietam’s heavier, more distorted songs featured complex tempo changes and polyrhythms. The audience had no difficulty moshing during...
