B8_ FEATURES August 18, 1999 LMP Presents Eclectic Variety of Bands this Fall by Jeffrey M Leatherwood Staff Writer Bill Clarke has guided Last Minute Productions for as long as most Western Carolina students can recall. His efforts on behalf of the ever changing student body have yielded a variety of campus activities such as outdoor field trips, live concerts, and more unique en- tertainment. LMP, according to their brochure, is open to any student willing to learn and share ideas with other students. These students have direct input into which forms of entertainment Bill Clarke can approach for the many campus events each semester. far too jones The Ultraviolets In recent years, Last Minute Productions has made efforts to diversify the various live bands which visit the university. In this age of computerized techno tunes, Bill Clarke and his LMP students have been kept busy looking for acts which appeal to current tastes while still maintaining the human element of music. This semester promises much variety for students who enjoy dance and world beat music. LMP also has plans to attract nationally-known acts to perform at the Homecoming. The Valley Ballyhoo begins at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, August 18. Local favorites Oliver's Soup, known for their eclectic jazz concerts at Crossroads of Sylva, will open for Far Too Jones, a national act whose 1998 album, "Picture Postcard Walls," reveals a contemporary rock sound. The only criticisms of Far Too Jones are their overtly religious lyrics, which tend toward repetition and are rather stultifying. Their lead vocalist also seems to rely overmuch on The Doors' Jim Morrison for his style. Otherwise, the band is quite solid with strong harmonies and a full instrumental sound. The Valley Ballyhoo also features roving artists such as a balloon sculptor and a troupe of stilt walkers. Dinner will be served on the lawn and campus organizations will be present to introduce new students to WCU campus life. Friday, the 20th of August, features two new bands at the University Center. The LMP Outdoor Activities by Jeffrey M. Leatherwood Staff Writer Last Minute Productions has big plans for the adventurous students of Western Carolina University. Not limited to movies and music concerts, the student-run organization also enjoys the physical ardors of the Nantahala River and the Great Smoky Mountains. The first taste students will be treated to will be Friday afternoon, August 20, with a Field Day from 1 to 4 p.m. A simulated rock mountainside will be erected on the U.C. Lawn where students can try their hand at climbing and rappelling. Volleyball and biking will also be featured at the Field Day. On August 22 and 29, LMP will sponsor the Nantahala Rafting Trips, which must be paid for in advance at the LMP office. Beginning at 9 a.m., students and friends can ride the rocky river and swim in the shallows all day. Equipment and instructions for first-timers will be made available. August 28 also promises a Rock Climbing expedition with meals and transportation also provided, which will last all day. LMP Advisor Bill Clarke also reminds students that something is always going on at the University Center Club each Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night. "I encourage the students to get involved with campus activities, whether with LMP or anyone else. There's over 100 organizations on campus," he said. "If what we have isn 't your idea of fun, then become a part of Last Minute Productions and make the changes yourself," he added. Monday, August 30 is LMP's Open House and every fun-loving student at WCU is invited to take part in one of the college's best traditions. Phase Band, a hard-working Southeastern Rhythm & Blues group, will open the proceedings at 9 PM. The Phase Band has highly acclaimed musicians and play traditional and modern R&B and pop standards. Their list of cover songs ensures something for nearly everyone. Following the opening act, The Ultraviolets take over the stage in support of their recent release, "Down South Night Club." Led by guitarist Brent Lundy, who drops the name of the great Pete Townshend as a major song writing influence, The Ultraviolets sound nothing at all like The Who, which is a pity. Their extended play CD is characterized by harmonica-flavored country and southern rock riffs, not the exciting power-chords and thunderous rhythms one might expect. Their cover list also fails to include a single song from Britain's greatest live band, not even "My Generation" or "Magic Bus." Instead, their songlist relies on AC/DC, L y n r y d Skynyrd, and Led Zeppelin. Friday, the 27th, at 6 PM, WCU's Reggaefest begins with a triple header of reggae bands. Baaba Seth has opened for several international acts from South Africa, Zimbabwe, and The Ivory Coast, as well as American popsicles such as The Dave Matthews Bands. From Charlottesville, Virginia, the eight-man group is multiracial and well-regarded by critics from The Washington Post. The next band is Ras Bonghi, a South Caro- Ras Bonghi: Reggae All Baaba Seth Una band with five members. The final performing stars are Mystic Vibrations, a must-see for all students, even those who are not reggae fans. A sincere message of international peace pervades their music and their sound is very powerful, having only four members. They have played twice before at WCU in the past year and every time, Mystic Vibrations have been well received. The band is led by guitarist and vocalist Ras Ric of Little London, Jamaica, augmented by the tuneful keyboards of Ras L. of North Carolina and the South Carolina-born rhythm talents of Raheem and Chatman on bass guitar and drums. As you can see, This promises to be quite a year musically for LMP and Western Carolina University. ^ WESTERN <^r CaroliniaN Employment Opportunities If you can find three mispelled words in this add, you could be the new Carolinain Copy Editor!
