Famed O'Farrill to guest in Barbary Coast performance

By Brent Reidy | February 10, 2005

This Saturday the Barbary Coast Jazz Ensemble will perform in Spaulding Auditorium at 8 p.m. with guest artist Arturo O'Farrill, a forerunner of Latin piano and the bandleader of the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra at the Lincoln Center. Rather than pretend to write this article from a neutral perspective, I will be honest: I am the pianist of the Barbary Coast and over the last few weeks I've had the opportunity to play the charts to be performed this Saturday.

Rightly Guided Thieves kick off Carnival at Bones Gate

By Jaime Padgett | February 9, 2005

If you walk into the depths of the Hopkins Center late at night, winding around the dark corridors towards practice room 29, a sweetly unique sound pounds through the closed door. Peering through a tiny window, one can see Billy Accomando '07, Rashid Galadanci '07, Patrick Handler '07 and Ben Selznick '07 jamming and producing tunes that the whole campus has come to recognize. This unique sound is that of Rightly Guided Thieves, the spectacular sophomore band that has enthralled Dartmouth students since last fall.

Canada's Arcade Fire wrap up American tour in Boston

By Lindsay Barnes | February 3, 2005

Yes, it's wrong to stereotype, but goshdarnit, Canadians are such nice folks! They've contributed so much to American culture for so long (Dan Aykroyd, four-fifths of The Band, Molson, numerous cold fronts, the list goes on) that it's a wonder one nation could be so generous.

Harcourt shines on third album

By Caroline McKenzie | February 1, 2005

Explaining Ed Harcourt to the uninitiated is somewhat difficult. He isn't like any of the young male singer-songwriters familiar to the radio-listening American public, mainly because he doesn't turn out "pret-a-ecouter" tunes that will placate your grandmother. Instead he's closer to the sweetness of a good Richard Hawley track, with the playful exuberance of Jesse Malin's "Almost Grown." Or maybe more aptly, he has the under-the-radar indie rock brilliance of early Badly Drawn Boy recordings, but with production and instrumentation slightly more reminiscent of Coldplay.

By Jeremy Massler | January 28, 2005

There is something unsettling about thefacebook.com's premise -- about the process of inviting a person and listing him or her as your "official friend." It was only a matter of time before somebody took thefacebook to its extreme. Steve Hofstetter is a stand-up comedian, an alumni of Columbia University and head writer for Collegehumor.com.
