  • NOVEMBER 10, 1977/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/PAGE 7 Firefall appears good but bad Most people will Sgree that last month's .Mason Loggins concert was ■ smashing success. Most people drill Sgree that il was a hard id to follow. That was made obvious Saturdav when Sanford Townsend Band and Firefall tried their hand ai entertaining the Cullowhee audience In ReW Gj m. Generally, except for those who were partying and enjoying an evening with friends, people were bored. Disinterest and apathy abounded for the mosl part. Except for the ones near the front of the stage, people talked, joked, and laughed among themselves instead of listening to the music, lhe people near the front of the stage didn't talk because (I) some of them wen really and truly enjoying the music, and (2) lhe rest of them couldn't hear themselves think because the sound was loud and grossly distorted. True, the concert did have ils high points; there were times when the music was downright impressive —but the low points—the lulls unmistakably outweighed the peaks. Other than some truly exceptional sax playing and a good response to ■'Smoke From a Distant Lire,'' the Sanford Townsend Band did nothing more th< n useless, unheard vibrations in the an. Lew were listening. Firefall is a good band their two albums are enjoyable. However, thev need to leave lhe stage until thev can add lustre to their show, as thev are a studio band. Ot course, their familiar songs such as "Cinderella." "lust Kemeniber l Love You." and "You Are the Woman," got a very good response from the audience as wilh any pop song at a concert. However, al a dynamic show, even the obscure songs should have a marked effect on tin- audience. (Kemeniber Jesse Winchester'.' Obscure as the majoritv ol his music was. that was a dv iiamic concern! I :i .fall's kev board and horn man. played an impressive flute lead in "Cinderella" and a strong sax in "Even Steven." Jock Barkley played a mean lead guitar, the band's instrumentation was from time to time effective. But something was lacking in the concert as a whole that resulted in an inattentive audience. . friendly people, and thev all have a good background in music. It was hard m fact, impossible to get the entire band together for an Mark Andes was especially helpful in contributing inside information, lhe following is a paraphrased version of some ot the information he supplied: The next single that Firefall will release is "So Long" (il was one of the more impressive songs at the Harris fields questions by JOHN VAN TASSEL Contributing Writer In a conference with about twenty journalism students Tuesday, Sydney J. Harris fielded questions pertaining to his 35 years as a feature columnist. During the nearly hour and a half confrontation this seasoned essayist, whose work happens to appear in column form, advised the beginners on how to approach their careers. As an advisor. Harris showed his knowledge in philosophy, teaching, and a number of other subjects. Some of his best advice was to become an intellectual first, and a writer second. Another point was that, "writing is a knack; if you don't have it, you are better off washing windows or tuning pianos." As a philosopher, Harris considers himself a second string Aristotle and believes that philosophy plays a crucial role in society. In fact. Mr. Harris has a degree in philosophy, but has never had any formal training in journalism. In his conversation, Harris said that journalism school is not worth the time and money; the craft can be learned in about six months. In this perspective he talked about the advantages of apprenticeships versus college. Having started as a copy boy working from six in the evening until two in the morning he is a great advocate of on-the-job training. One of the more interesting responses of the afternoon was to the question of what other time Harris speaks From Page 1 "The aim of communication is maturity," he said, "and maturity is learning that things that bind us as a species are more pervasive than those which devide us. "Communication is only the first faltering step toward the world community we must have if we are to survive on this earth." Harris said. His speech was co-sponsored by the WCU University Center and the Lectures. Concerts, and Exhibitions Committee. period he would like tO have lived in. His answer was. "I would like lo meet Mo/art or Da Vinci or be at the last supper." After saving that he has turned down three college presidencies in the past five years, Harris was asked what was his greatest accomplishment. "My biggest personal accomplishment," he said, "was having five children who are each belter than I am."
