TOPIC: The features in "Flash"
Posted  Thursday, November 21, 2002 at 3:47 PM
Post 1 of 12
i'm walking to class today, and the wind is blowing. I notice a piece of paper blowing in the wind, I thought nothing of it until I saw the face of Matt Pelham looking at me. So I automatically get to my nearest news-stand and pick up the very nice article. Everyone needs to go and pick one up.....it is a very well done spread.

One thing I learned from the article that I did not know previously:

The Features were going to do a European tour this year, but decided to spend the money on the summer recordings....

Is there a website for this paper you speak of? I assume it's an MTSU thing.

yes, i forgot to add that it is the MTSU paper. it's an insert in the Sidelines newspaper. sorry about that. Everyone go snatch one up before they're all gone.

Sidelines is usually written so poorly. Is it written by third graders? I am going to check out that issue though.

I was thinking about snatching a few extra for myself and anyone else who doesn't go to MTSU and is intersested in having one. The article was okay, but I guess I am a five year old at heart and just liked looking at the pretty pictures. I have a complaint though, there was no picture of Parrish by himself. That just isn't right. YOu could see him in the background of one of the shots of Roger but that's it. Oh well... it was still nice to see them recognized.

i'm an mtsu student but have never picked up a sidelines paper before, so i'm completely ignorant. is it a weekly paper? if so, i'd be willing to pick up some extra as well.

dont worry, i have already picked up extra copies for all of my friends on the message board.

sidelines is a weekly paper. they feature a local band every week in their "flash" section. the only good issue is this one and it's only because the features are in it.

"The work of Yo La Tengo is always consistent, well-rounded and juxtaposed with saxophone-laden tracks."
