Feds continue with OUSFA funding plans by Mm special

Wood hpfint
The University of Waterloo’s break from the Ontario Federation of Students (OFS) last year is producing at least one new initiative. David Martin, UW’s Federation of Students president, is help ing design and promote an “income contingent loan” alternative to the current Ontario Student Assistance Program funding system. The proposal is in direct confJict with the zero tuition policy of both the OFS and theCanadianFederationof Students. Waterloo is currently a member of CFS, but the Feds are holding a referendum on membership next term. “In the next week and a half we’ll go public,” said Martin. The draft plan has been approved in principle by students’ council. Also involved in the drafting of the plan are Queen’s, Brock, and Toronto. Western and Wilfrid Laurier have also participated. The plan involves a universally available loan up to tuition costs, a “needs based” program involving additional loans and grants, and a continuation of bursaries targeted to women, visible minorities and aboriginals. Repayment of the loans would be based on income earned upon graduation. Only once a graduate earns more than a mean income, of say $22,WO per year, would they begin repayment. Repayment would also be graduated such that at higher levels of income, a higher percentage of income would be charged for repayment. Butnoteveryoneishappywith the repayment idea. “No matter what their politics, I can’t see that this plan is in their
constituents’ (students’) interests,” said Ken Craft, chairperson of OFS. ‘$ncreasi.ng student debt loads is] lobbying on behalf of the administration, not on the behalf of students.” Craft is also critical that the income contingent plan does not address the problem of equity. “There are a lot of socio-economic groups who, for cultural reasons, will not take on debt loads,” he said. “A loan system will not lead to greater equity.” But Martin diigreed. “The plan doesn’t place the burden on students but on those who have graduated. It shifts the burden (of funding) from students to professionals,” he said. Martin also felt the income contingency initiatives would help solve the university funding crisis. “Until we find more income for universities, the quality of student life will deteriorate -- that doesn’t mean raising tuition fees, it means . . . [finding funding] not from the students but graduates,” ’ he said. The jury is still out, however, on which proposal, if any, will form the basis of QSAP reform. “Ofcoursetheir~lan(the~eds’) is more likely to be implemented their lobbying for a higher student debt load,” said Craft. The Council of Ontario Universities (COT& The Ministry of Colleges and Universities, and many senior university administrators have discussed different versions of an income contingency loan plan.

WLUSU election scandal continues changeis”inthebestinterestsofthe students.” The first alteration was to bylaw 16, section 39 a), which formerly stated that “Any amendment to this and any other by-law of this corporation must be passed by twothirds of the directors and shall be effective when approved by a majority of the votes at an annual or other meettig.” However, since this “violated” see . tion 129-2 of the Corpora. tion Act of Ontario, it was changed to allow the board to alter bylaws at ariy meeting and for the -multing amendments to be effective until confirmed or rejected at the following annual meeting. Bigioni said that “the actual illegality of that clause [by-law 16, section39]issomethingthatI’mnot sure whether it’s definitively illegal but it’s restricted by the Corporations Act.” The next annual meeting (an election that includes the entire student body) will occur in February. This amendment is actually in violation of the by-law it sought to change, but Bigioni declared that the Corporation Act supercedes the by-lawsof theStudents’Union, such that the original by-law had no meaning or power. Thus, it was “fully within the jurisdiction of the board” to effect such an amendment. This by-law was ratified by the student body at last February’s elec-

StudentPublicationspresident Martin Walker has been the most vocal opponent to the changes in the by-laws. Walker wrote to the board that “the by-laws of the corporation were meant to be upheld, not broken.” He also stated that the integrity of the corporation was challenged. Nick Jimenez, last year’s StudentsUnion president, agreed with Walker that “It’s a pretty dangerous precedent to be setting.” Jimenez also said that “I don’t think you should humiliate or show any disrespect for your by-laws.” Meanwhile, Bigioni said that he thinks the issue is fiihecl until the

Licruor law crackdown
CyanI see your ID, please by Ken lmjwint
Bryson stu#
You will now need govemmen&issued identification to enter any licensed bar an campus. In a decision affecting even the Bombshelter and Fed Hall, Associate Provost for Student Affairs and Chair of the Alcohol Committee Peter Hopkins has decided that regulation 41 .of the liquor licensing act must be followed at all licensed establishments on campus. This means that as well as you student ID card, you must produce
either a driver’s license or an age of majority card to gain entrance. “Every other establishment follows that [law] and we will follow it as well,” said Hopkins. This will not adversely affect patronage at the Bombshelter, though, hopes Bombshelter Manager Larry Vaughan. “We’ve been pretty strict here with ID, but people have to realize that they’re cracking down on everybody.” Students can still gain entrance to the Bombshelter with their student card but should be prepared to back that up with a government
card, Vaughan says. Both Hopkins and Vaughan were adamant about the requirement being the law and that it must be followed. “That’s what the law requires, and we’ve got to abide by the law,” said Vaughan. Hopkins is currently waiting for a clear interpretation of the law from the liquor license inspector to determine the final ramifications; but for now, it’s no entrance without government identification. VPOF Brent McDermott, who oversees all Federation businesses, could not be reached for comment.

Stolen Continents author speaks on 1492 by Eleanor Grunt spedal to imprint
Nap&on Bonaparte once said ‘%istoryisasetofliesagreedupon.” With this quote, Ronald Wright, author of Sfolm Conrimts and Time Among #he Maya; opened his keynote address at Wilfrid Laurier University’s symposium “Reflecting on 1492: Past and Present” on Saturday, November 7. Ten WLU faculty members participated in the day-long event, which attracted an audience varying from 30 to 100 people including many from off campus. One of the main themes taken up by keynote speaker Ronald Wright was the history of the Iroquois Nations. Wright explained that the Iroquois nations used to inhabit a greatpartofpresent-dayOhio,New York State, southern Ontario, and southern Quebec. After they sided with the British in the American Revolutionary War and lost, the British compensated them for the loss of all their land south of the St. Lawrence by giving them 1,200 square miles in southern Ontario. But that Six Nations territory has since become much smaller. “The Iroquois always thought of their lands as sovereign territory,” said Wright. They were never conquered and have never signed any treaties and they have steadfastly refused to sign any treaty making them part of Canada, Wright said. In 1829, Wright said, the Mounted Police came onto the reserve at Akwasasne and shot the
chief dead, in order to impose the selection of a band council according to the Indian Act. After Confederation the Iroquois sought a hearing with the new federal government to establish their sovereipty, but Ottawa refused to hold the hearing. Next the Iroquois appealed to the British Crown, only to be told that London no longer had any jurisdiction in the matter. After World War I, a delegation of Iroquois went to the League of Nations, with their own passports, and asked to join is a sovereign nation. Four countries agreed to sponsor the Iroquois as a member of the League of Nations. But the British then exerted such pressure against the four, that they dropped their sponsorship. The leader of the Iroquois delegation came home “a broken man,” Wright said. “We didn’t think we would live long enough to see a British promise not be good. Canada has established a government over us composed of traitors among us,” the dejected leader lamented. In 1927, Ottawa passed an amendment to the Indian Act making it illegal to collect money for the purpose of retaining lawyers to bring the sovereignty issue before the courts. This law remained on the books until the 1950s. To this day, Wright said, the Iroquois do not participate in Canadian electiOX7.S.

Unlike thoseinNorth America, the Native people of Central and South America were living a settled agricultural life in towns and cities before the conquest. Agriculture had spread to the north and the south mainly from Guatemala, where the Mayans had perfected the cultivation of corn, beans, and potatoes over many centuries. “The Mayans in Guatemala were always great historians and writers,” said Wright, pointing out that the art of writing has only been invented six tima in human history; the Mayans rank with the ancient Egyptians and Chinese in this regard. “The Spanish burned their books because they couldn’t tolerate a rival civilization,” Wright said. But tlk Mayans adapted their language’ to the European alphabet and continued to write, as did the Aztecs. “The people of the Americas were as advanced as the Europeans of the day,” Wright said. “They made up one-fifth of the world’s population, just as they do today.” Their near-extermination, which was caused mainly by European diseases, would be equivalent to thedeathofonebillionpeoplenow.

Last weekend, the School of Architecture celebrated its 25th anniversary by inviting prominent American architect Frank Geluy to Waterloo to deliver the 23rd Hagey lecture, to participate in a three-day design charette for the new Student Life Centre, and to play hockey. The intense schedule began last Thursday with the initiation of the design charettes, where groups of students pulled their ideas together. Members of his office worked closely with these student design teams. Later that evening, Gehry lectured at Federation Hall - an appropriate venue given the energy of his work. He delivered a comprehensive and entertaining lecture which appealed to the many different backgrounds present, On Friday, a discussion-workshop was held in the Senate Board room. Saturday marked the -final stages of the design charettes and the day of the hockey challenge. At the Columbia Ice Fields, tie Gehry team also worked closely (with two ex-NHL ringers, we might add) in overpowering the formidable student/alumni/faculty hockey team in a full equipment hockey game, which they won 6-2. Frank Gehry grew up in Toronto and then moved to Santa Monica, California, where he now practices. His architecture and furniture design have gained international recognition. Gehryhasbeenacknowledged with numerous awards including the top three in the architectural profession, the Wolf Prize, the Arnold W. BrunnerMemori+lPrize and the Pritzker Architecture Prize. His architecture derives its unique character by drawing on diverse sources, including popular culture, unconventional materials, and the arts of sculpture, dance and painting. .

Timorese plight not forgotten on anniversary Thursday, November 12 marked the one-year anniversary of the unprovoked massacre of 200 unarmed mourners in East Timor by Indonesian government forces. The massacre once again put Indonesia’s violent occupation of East Timor, and flagrant human rights abuses, on the international political agenda. Contrary to its publicly stated policy (of linking foreign aid to human rights) our federal government continues its support of the Indonesian govemment. In 1975, Indonesia invaded the tiny country of East Timor, an island in Pacific Asia approximately the size of Vancouver Island. To enforce its occupation, the Indonesian government launched a campaign of military oppression on the Timorese. In the first three months of Indonesian occupation, 60,000 people werekill~(TheGbbeatidMail,April 14,1992). A week after the December 7 invasion, the United Nations General Assembly voted to call for immediate withdrawal of Indonesian forces; Canada abstained. On three subsequent votes, Canada also abstained and in 1980 and 1982 actively opposed motions to call for the withdrawal of Indonesia. Amnesty International has estimated that at least 200,ooO people have died as a result of the Indonesian occupation. That figure repro-

sents one-third of the pre-invasion Timorese population, a statistic which has solicited cries of eenotide and comparisons to thevholocaust. Despite the Indonesian government’s despicable human rights abuses our government continues to support it with foreign aid dollars. In response to cries of outrage after the November 12 massacre, the federal government suspended support of new aid projects totalling $30 million. The $46 million Canadian International Development Agency &IDA) budget for Indonesia was not affected.
Amnesty International has reported at least %!M,OOO dead In an August 1992 letter to Dr. Peter Elgin ocWilfrid burier University, Minister of External Affairs Barbara McDougal stated “the Canadian government was encouraged by the positive approach taken by the Indonesian authorities” in responding to the massacre.

ment, commented: “You look for reasons. So what seems to be an obvious factor is the hundreds of Canadian businesses linvolved in Indonesia]. My own hunch is that they don’t misunderstand history. It just goes against their economic interests.” 300 Canadian businesses and $X&million in trade are tied to Indonesia. Canadian demands for _ L c. recognition of human rights could ieopardize these interests, so our II ~ovemment’s stance has been one of compliance.

I am not an alumnus here at the University of Waterloo yet, although at my age I should be. I have toiled (on and off) at this campus since 1985, when I arrived as a dewy-eyed co-op mathematics major. Homecoming here is not quite the big deal it is at older universities, such as Western or Queen’s Of course, in London and Kingston, the popularity of Homecoming is measured in the number of police officers required to keep drunken students from urinating on people’s lawns. In that respect, I suppose we have something to be thankful for. This year, Homecoming happens to correspond with the 17th imprint issue of this year. Since we publish 33 issues from May to April, this is the Wednesday of my second term as editor. Such arbiuav benchmarks are causes for reflection upon such self-absorbed topics as how it is that I came to be 26 years old and still on this campus. For me, working on Imprint provided a much more concrete, measured way of life than did purely academic pursuits. As anyone on staff here or working for the Iron Warrior or MathNews will tell you, contributing to the production of a regular publication with your peers provides a high that no A-plus on an essay or 95 per cent on a test could ever measure up to. Even after four years of involvement with this newspaper, I still walk a bit faster to school on Friday mornings, anticipating what the cover will look like, wondering how that week’s collection of effort will turn out. How many of us are that anxious to find out our mark after a final exam? Think of your choices: Work your butt off concentrating on school, write all of your exams, and get a piece of paper in the mail a month later with letters and numbers that tell you how you did. Write for, take photos for, and/or layout a paper that is published every Friday during classes. Invest a lot of time, but see results within a couple of days. G&t immediate feedback in the form of letters to the editor, feature articles written in response, or just someone stopping you in the Bombshelter to say, “I really liked what you wrote this week’ or ‘you’re full of shit” The first option is the more pragmatic, because at the end of the laborious process, you have a degree in pretty much the amount of time you were supposed to take. Which means that you can charge right out into the real world and find a real job. If you’re lucky. The road less travelled by, the second option, does have its practical benefits: writing about things that you enjoy, covering events and people that you would not be able to gain access to otherwise, and gaining valuable experience that will, of course, look good on a resume. I think that most people, when celebmting Homecoming, remember the extncurricular activities more than the final exams and theses, whether those activities be recreational or more serious, such as involvement in student government, volunteer work, or -- that’s right -- the student newspaper. The best way to remember your university experiences is get involved in something other than just classes. It will aIs? give you more reunions to go to in 20 piW5.
. .
Take me home; coluntry roads ” Homecoming Weekend always seems to take me by surprise. It seems far too early in the term to be looking back, and taking stock. For instance, I coniidex the term a successful one if, by Homecoming, I require the digits of both hands to count the number of classes I have attended. That’s Homecoming to me, the career student. What does Homecoming mean, though, to people who have actually graduated from this fine institution? Since I don’t actually huw anyone who has graduated, I can only speculate. November is traditionally the time of year when alumni (or is that alumnuses ? - I never did take Latin, and boy am I ashamed) presumably feel the Alma Mater (more Latin) tugging at their heart strings, and drop whatever they are doing to spawn. What’s in store for the balding overweight ex-jocks driving into Waterloo in cars they can’t afford to impress people they haven’t seen for 15 years? Wellsir, we’ve got just about the best university basketball game in the nation in the form of the annual Naismith Basketball Classic, which is celebrating its 25th occurrence this year. Twenty-four years of screaming, intoxicated, incoherent alumni packed into a hot, overcrowded auditorium cheering on youngsters who are sweatingpfisely has got to be worth something. Joking aside, the Naismith is consistently the best part of FIomecoming. That a sporting event should so define “school spirit” at an institution of higher learning does not bother me philosophically. Rather, I feel that, while spectacle has a tendency to unite - I cite Blue Jays fever - there is far more at this school of which to be immensely proud. The recent Maclean% university ranking placed Merry, Merry Waterloo at the top of its respective heap -justice for the co-op system at last. Waterloo has the largest co-operative education program in the world - md I’m damn proud to be a part of it. From whence will come the future leaders of Canada? According to Maclean’s, they’ll come from Waterloo. But I knew that already. The people with whom I’ve shared the coop experience -everyone from our intrepid editor Peter Brown to Director of the IBM Canada Laboratory Larry L. Achtemichuk -have shown me that we here at Waterloo have an education system second to none. The coop system of education provides for its denizens true instruction in the ways of the world. Even a man with the grooming habits of a Sasquatch (I refer, of course, to Microsoft Corporation President BilI Gates) acknowledges the excellence of Waterloo’s idea of combining theoretical leaning with immersion in the “real worldlc of hires more business, science, and the humaru ties (Microsoft graduates of Waterloo than of any other university in the world). So, when you’re watching the cagers this weekend, be of good cheer&Jot onl are you getting a first-rate education, chances are that you’ E get a%etter job than most. CooI. l

Forum Coverage of referendum flawed To the
editor,
I am surprised that a report of the Referendum [“No” to Charlottetown Accord, October 301, printed at least three days after its compl&on, would use intermediary data. The data used in the article was correct at about 13:OO PM on. Monday, October 26th - as the polls were closing in B.C. This would be about the latest result that The GZobe and Mail could have obtained for its Tuesday edition (you didn’t bother to look on page A4 of Wednesday’s paper, did you?). Did it not bother the writer of this articIe that the tally did not contain results for my of Alberta, B.C., the Yukon, or the Northwest Territolies? The final results were: 6,185,902 (44.6%) “Yes” votes and 7,550,732 (54.4%) “No” votes, representing 99.0% of the ballots cast. In Ontario, 2,410,199 (49.8%) votes were cast for “Yes” and 2,397,665 (49.6%) votes were cast for “No,” consisting of 99.4% of the ballots cast. Quebec voted 1,710,117 (424%) ballots for “Yes” and 2,232,2X) (55.4%) ballots for ,‘No,” consisting of 97.8% of the ballots cast. The highest ,‘YesH vote did go to P.E.I., with 73.6% of the ballots cast (not 73.%). The highest vote for “No” went to B.C., with 68*h of the vote. In the end, four provinces (three maritime and Ontario) and the Northwest Territories went “Yes”. Incidently, I have yet to see a total number of ballots cast. The mind boggles over the number of spoiled ballots (at least mine does), about 139,000 (what amounted to 1.0% of the ballots cast). the largest amount of spoiled ballots were ast in Quebec (2.2% of the ballots cast, or about 89,000 ballots), all the rest of the provinces had 0.2% (Alberta) to 0.7% (Northwest Territories and New Brunswick) spoiled ballots. I got these figures from’77ze Globe artd Mail, Wednesday, October 28th, 1992 (page A4), who (in turn) received them from Canadian Press. The author of the Imprint article should know better than to not acknowledge sources. Sandy Atwal has the right idea (in “Paranoia,” same issue). However, the voting system does have a method to register a protest against the system: you can ether refuse your ballot or spoil it. Both are cast as ballots, but no vote is recorded. 50 when T&e Globe and Mail (or whichever paper) prints the result of an election (or referendum) there is always these suspicious missing percentages from the total votes (as I have shown above). When they are high enough, maybe the system will take note, if you don’t do this, there is no official way of letting the system know and you are forced to yell and scream at them, which they tend to ignore.

Different views on East Timor To
the
editor,
We believe that truth is to be sought through obtaining as much information as possible, from as much existing perspectives as well. Therefore, responding to the article”. . . Indonesia invaded East Timor. . M written by Mr. Greg Newton (Imprint, bet. 16,1992), we, the Indonesian students in Waterloo, feel the need to share what we know regarding the situation in East Timor. We would also like to call for a fairness in looking at this issue. There is no doubt that the November 12,1992 incident happened. However, nobody agreed on what exactly was happening that day. In testifying in court, a security personnel contended that he and his friends were forced by the riotous situation to start firing into the crowd. To investigate the incident, a National Commission of Inquiry was appointed. The result of this investigation has been announced. Six senior officers were dismissed or transferred, eight other officers and soldiers will face court-martial. All sentences were determined based on the Indonesian, either military or civilian, law. The following information is provided to prevent readers from being mislead by information asymmetry regar$ng the process of integration of East Timor into the Republic of Indonesia. In preparation for self determination,’ the people of East Timor started to organized themselves by establishing five political parties (UDT, KOTA, TRABALHISTA, APODETI, FRETILIN) on May-November 1974; then on March 1975, first scheduled referendum on independence was suppressed by Portuguese military in East Timor, in the mean time pro-Portuguese FRETILIN party began series of terrors attacked on political opponents; on August lo,1975 UDT forces, learning of FRETILIN plans for a coup, took pre-emptive action and staged large demonstrations; then on August 26,1975 Portuguese government abandoned Dili, rather than attempted to restore order. Governor and staff returned to Lisbon; on August 29,1975 in bilateral talks, Indonesia urged return and re-establishment of Portuguese authority over the territory in order to complete the decolonization process, but Portugal failed to re-establish, its presence; on November 30,1975, four parties (exclude Freti&) issued their proclamation of independence and simultaneous integration to the Republic of Indonesia; on May 31,1976, the elected People’s Assembly of East Timor voted to request integration to the republic of Indonesia; on June 5,1976, a delegation of the people of East Timor arrived in Jakarta (Capital city of Indonesia) to present the petition calling for immediate integration of East Timor with Indonesia. . . . (Suppose the readers intend to obtain more chrQnologica1 information regarding East Timor issue, should the readers look at Sue Rabbitt Roff’s book ‘“firnor’s Muss -Indonesia and Australian Policy in East Tiior 19744976” published by the Edwin Mellen Press, ltd, United Kingdom, 1992). We believe that the conclusion that Indonesia invaded East Timor, as mentioned on Mr. Greg Newton’s article, cannot be regarded as valid yet. It was the majority

Friday night’s all right for fighting To the
editor,
Without the usual hoopla, the endless promotional campaigns, and Don King, heavy-weight boxing/wrestling came to the K-W area, at our very own Federation Hall! Absent were the pre- and the post-fight interviews, the championship belts, and other paraphanailia (sic.) often associated with these such events, Unfortunately, no Heavy Weight Champ actually made an appearance at Fed, but the various goons from both M&laster, and Waterloo filled quite an exciting card. Apparently a number of Mac students wished to expose themselves to the number one school in it’s class (Maclean’s), as buses arrived from the lovely metropolis of Hamilton (cough, cough!) destined for Fed Hall. This group proceeded to file into our once resp&able establishment, and disappeared in@ the masses - or did they? Friday evening at Fed consisted of a large number of highly charged battIes between various tick-skuIIed heavy weights from either MAC, or UW. I do realize that these situations are occasionally unavoidable, but the frequency this past Friday was inconceivable. Not only do these events create a significant inconvenience towards those of us who attend Fed to have a good time, they also pose a potential risk of injury towards innocent by-standards (sic). Hey Chuck, we all pay our $7.50/term Federation Hall fee - must we really tolerate this behavior? These incidences have no place in any post-secondary establishment. Most of e have outgrown this characteristic behavior in public or high-school, however it became increasingly obvious as the night wore on that a number of individuals avoided the usual development of a quantifmble measure of maturity during the adolescent phase of their lives. If you ‘party-jack-ass’ boys can’t control your barbaric behavior and aggression towards both male and female members of our society, then get the hell out of my bar - and my school. If you find yourself described in the aforementioned situation here’s a tip for you Sparky, go back to high-school - where these incidences are common, learn to read and write, and don’t come back until you grow up and develop some respect for the post-secondary opportunity.. University is for the elite student - you are not it! Go home. Also, I would like to extend this personal message to the four drooling, twelve-sandwich-eating-goons from the McMaster Football Team, who decided, upon being escorted from Federation Hall, to take it upon themselves to beat the ‘snot’ out of a member of the UW Campus Police - sending him to hospital, (where were The Silhouette sports staff writers then?) here is my advice to you: Apply early! Being a Christmas graduates, you may find that your quest for employment is as difficult as it was for you to pass yo~f’ ELPE! Good luck my friends. These situations which developed at Fed have no place in any post-secondary institution, beit MAC, Waterloo, or any other school. HEY GOONS, STAY AT HOME! I certainly hope that these individuals -who know who they are, can &ntrol themselves on Homecoming weekend. In the presence of past alumni, we should attempt to emulate the classy and respectable atmosphere that the University of Waterloo
once posses&.

Stinky boys, stinky boys, get off my back To
the
editor,
should keep in mind that this behaviour is just what the band expects and enjoys, for when they invited me up on stage, and when Chris Murphy leapt into the crowd multiple times, they invited the controlled chaos that ensued. By the way, Ms. Lobin, before you refer to the immediate crowd as “stinky boys”, perhaps you should stick your nose into your own armpits.
I write in response to the article in the October 30th issue about the Sloan concert Murk 4. Beasy at the Bombshelter. The author, a Ms. Grad Student --Chem Stacey Lobin, apparently may not understand the collective fun that many people had at this rockin’ show. Her attitude to the actions of the “stinky boys” who “pissed me off big time” seems somewhat paradoxical. If what we were doing was “danger. ous”, then what the heck was so safe about the “entertaining and exciting” show in Kingston the previous night? Her apparent To the editor, enthusiasm for the band’s “sensitive newage rock star antics”, such as the Kingston While I will admit that the tone of my show’s “running on the tables, kicking over Nov. 6 rebuttal of Sandy Atwal’s Oct. 30 * beer, their sound guy getting death threats, “Paranoia,, was less than magnanimous, it and inviting the whole audience up onto did not remotely constitute an ad hominem the stage”, indicates a confused idea, a attack. This is obvious to all objective hypocrasy [sic], concerning what is acceptreaders: not,once did I impugn the writer; able band and audience behaviour.

a neo-New-Rightist, “pure” market ideology towering above the bovine servility of the rabble (that’s you, you naive fooIs), who, still caught in the Humanist quagmire, vainly try to use some of their dim intellects to create a better society. Did someone say ad homim? Okay. Let’s all gather together, hug, weep, and vatidate each other. Feel better? Great. Now, Mr. Atwal evades my central point. In his prior comments, he clearly suggested that the act of voting be replaced by a “purchasing“ dynamic. Let’s be clear: our votes do not decide which food processors we use; we vote on what laws and codes of conduct we want enacted in our society. What I am urging is that to submit suffrage to the classical paradign [sic.] of consumer/product is meaningless, since it assumes that behaviours and laws can be preserved, shrink-wrapped, sold, and had for a price: behaviours are states of being, not effects of being. Thus, in theory, Mr. Atwal’s choices WOULD be limited, not only by what he could afford, but also by what would be available “out there” (i.e. the “chunks,, of behaviour manufactured, packaged, and put on sale). Currently, Mr. Atwal can put himself “out there,, if he wishes; but in his cashocracy, he would have to “buy” himself. In theory, he would have no other mode of expression or selfconstruction outside economic tokenism, which enacts a unidimensional, unsignifying strategy of possession, and resists the kind of cognitive and semiotic polyvalency that humans require of a poIitica1 language (and of all languages). Perhaps Chesterton would have agreed with me that, instead of replacing one inadequate political language with another, we need to examine the rhetoric which links all existing systems together, and then, having discovered who is really doing the speaking, to learn how we can speak for ourselves.

editor,
I noticed some common misccmceptions in the Oct. 30 issue,<and thought they were worth correcting. Dave Thomson, in his column on Blue Jay Mania, notes ironically that the “World Series” includes teams from only two countries. This is because the “World” referred to is the name of the New York newspaper that fist sponsored the competition. And as a note, I would agree with Margaret Hitchcock’s thoughts of Nov. 6, thattheJa s- although not, as individuals, Cana cr ian - represent the city of Toronto, and by extension the country Canada. The s@nbol“4” has nothing to do with the concept of “four-ness,” but we use it as if it did anyway. Sandy Atwal, in his discussion of possibilities in a vote, incomplete1 analyzes the messages sent by eat K vote. Jeff Warner picks up on this in his letter of Nov. 6, but still misses the mark by a bit. In any federal vote where there are n 0 tions given, there are always n+2 courses o P action. You can stay away, but as Mr. Warner poirited out, this implies agreement with any of the options. Silence is consent. Alternatively, you can reject your ballot, which indicates disagreement with all options, and it is either this option or a “no” vote which expresses Mr. Thomson’s opinion. You reject a ballot in one of five ways: decline it, mark more than one of the choices, make a mark outside the indicated area, replace it with another piece of paper, or identify yourself. (This includes getting blood on the ballot. Don’t ask.) The most obvious method is to decline the thin , which just means handing it back to ii e elections official. In Ontario votes, this is counted separately and indicates a strong discontent with the process itself., Spoile&ballots are those where there is a misprint
or something
wrong with the ballot, off one mm’s name, and o %ack for another caug a t before the ballot
otherwise they are rejected. The media tend to confuse these categories. There are options, though, and the only effect of staying home is that the populace comes off as apathetic. So vote early, vote often, but if ou don’t vote you aren’t allowed to camp r ain. Kid Shapiro 4A Mathemutics
I don’t wanna be buried in a pet sematary To
the
editor,
It was a scene that every pet owner dreads. I had just returned home for a weekend of rest when my mother gave me the news. Our pet do had gone missing with ta s from his te tf er in our own front yard. Tk ‘s had happened Tuesday as I prepared to leave after a day’s work, and it was now Friday evening with the trail long gone cold. Phoning the pound and the veterinarian had turned u nothing. It was obvious that w K en my mother had gone into our London home, someone with a complete disregard of names and medical histories had effectively taken our favourite dog. Our do , who even rued each visit to the kenne H, could be cooling his paws in sunny Mexico for all we knew, and I who do not have any girlfriend to tickIe behind the ears or talk silly to, was feeling the loss. Pet owners all rue the day, that Iike a bereaved parent all they have is a lousy photograph, and the comforts they enjoy can no longer be shared with all of those that they care for. As a result, I take therapy in writing, hoping to arouse some echo thought in those that read this, though everyone must understand this in terms of what they themselves have known. I have since contem lated where my pet dog could be now, I P he was taken, it could be for Christmas for a family that may not realize that he lived 12 years of his life already. I wonder that we have made a God of human reason that smaller creatures who lack it may be used as pawns for the benefit of others. Perhaps this is the si of a still d r problem, beyond caring r or pets. If we.T must go through life viewing things through our own psyche, our view of life is forever clouded by our wants and needs over those of others. Like any n who is forgotten or abandoned by r eir “neighbours’,, the victim by accident or design, I feel I have been betrayed by those who should have cared. To end on a different note it appears too late to find our dog, so I hope to appeal to those owners who still leave their pets unattended for any length of time in their car or front yard to think twice. You may not be the only one who “cares” for your pet. Gordon 8umett 3B Mechonicd

Whenwe approach theistic faiths other than Christianity, we often find much the same kind of thing happens there as in the Christian community. At their best, the various religious communities come together to open themselves up to a higher reality which appears to me to share some fundamental common traits.

Chances are overwhelming that the reader has been raised from a Europeancommanded tradition which has thwarted the nurture of original American tradition. But riow, with a conscientious turnabout of support, the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas will see a spark of hope for the cause of justice ignite into a steady flame. Amnesty International is focussing on this demanding issue in an in temational campaign, which seeks an end to 500 ears of abuse of these peoples by European J escendants represented by American governments. Direct action must be taken to reduce (with the goal of eliminating) Canada’s corn licity in perpetuating this historical cycle 0 P injustice, and, just as importantly, to pressure other governments to do the same. A sizable quantity of letters of protest and inquiry directed at suspected violators of Indigenous People’s fundamental human rights, has been an effective tactic used by Amnesty International for many years. Please consider and act on this example: [LETTER] Exmo. Sr Sub-Procurador Geral da Justica Dr. Wagner Goncalves _ Av L2 Sul Qd 603/23 70.200 Brasilia DF Brazil Your Excellency, I request that a thorough and effective judicial investigation be conducted into the killing of 22-year-old Antonio Gilvan da Cruz, and threats of violence made against the Truka community by local authorities, and that those responsible be brought to justice. Please keep me informed of the outcome of the investigation. Letter should include dress, and date.

hold that when people of other faiths follow their consciences and the truth as they know it, that they are moving closer to God but must come to faith in Jesus Christ for a complete relationship with God. Some Christians with this spirit and intellectual sophistication say that these non-Christian people are actually being anonymous Chris’ tians (Christians without self-awareness of being so). I cannot accept this view as it isn’t true to the experience of members of other faiths. How many Christians would appreciate being called anonymous members of some other faith? The third view, representative of my own thought as a Christian, is a move away from traditional dogma and biblical explanation as the basis of Truth, to the living spirit of actual experience of real human beings in the situation of life. From my own experience, I c&u-tot help but concede that the God I know of through my own tradition has “spoken” to me

I O-goalsecondperiod sinks Toronto; high-octanescoringenginepropels Waterlooto second-place by Peter imprint
Brown sports
So much for the battle of unbeaten teams. Last Thursday night (November 5), the Warrior hockey team used ten second-period goals to bury the University of Toronto Varsity Blues 13-8 at Varsity Arena and lay claim to the best record in the OUAA - West or East - at 5-O0. That’s right. Ten goals for Waterloo. Four goals for Toronto. And writers’ cramp for the statisticians. With 13 goals in all, Waterloo has now scored 56 in only five games, on a pace to score, oh, I: don’t know, about a trillion goals. The Warriors also took off to the United States over the weekend to play two exhibition games. They 10s t 9-5 to Cornell University and 54 to Elmira College. The team played last night in London against the also-unbeaten Western Mustangs (4-O-O), the team that beat Waterloo in the last weekend of last season to capture the regular-season OUAA West title. In classic Waterloo style, the Toronto game was a total offensive team effort. The scoring was spread between 10 players, with only Steve Schaefer, Steve Woods, and John
Williams recording two goals apiece. John Wynne,Troy Stephens, Jamie Hartnett, Greg Allen, Chris Kraemer, Barry Young, and Darren Snyder all recorded singles. Dean McDonald assisted on three goals. Not many people would bet that Waterloo would increase its goals-for average against a previously-unbeaten team, but weird things can happen when a goalie gets rattled. The strangest thing about the
Waterloo 13, Toronto 8 second period onslaught was that it came at a time when the Blues had regained offensive rhythm and momentum. After being down 3-2 at the first intermission, Toronto’s Ted Wilson scored 1:39 into the second frame to tie it up and 80 seconds laterJohnAndersenaddedapowerplay marker while standing undefended at the right comer of the net to give U. of T. a 4-3 lead.

Greg Allen, Steve Woods, Chris Kraemer, and John Williams each struck in succession, as the Blues defence lay in ruin. Toronto starting goaltender Paul Henriques got the hook after Williams struck again, coasting shorthanded into the Blues zone. and driving a routine slapshot between Henriques’ pads (for those not keeping score at home, that made it %4r Waterloo did not waste any time getting to the second-stringer John Harding. Only 43 seconds after the goalie switcheroo, Steve Schaefer scored with the help of Barry Young and Allen. . Finally, the smelling salts kicked in and Toronto’s Jamie Coon scored to cutthe lead to 10-5. Waterloo found time tobeat Harding three more times before Coon scored again. Whew. 13-6. Ten goals by Waterloo. Four by Toronto. Writer’s cramp for the stats guys. Toronto made the score respectable in the final frame, scoring two goals for the final 13-8.
Plague spl,its -marathons with Laurier and Brock by Rich Imprint

“Our inconsistent play finally caught up to usfF Those were the words of Black Plague Warrior volleyball head coach Scott Shantz following his team’s huge upset loss to the Brock Badgers at home Wednesday night. “We could only get away with it for so long,” added Shantz. “Our players came into the game too overconfident. Brock played tough, and they humbled us.” After defeating the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks 3-Z (745, 17-16, 14-16, 15-9, 15-12) last Friday, Waterloo lost to the underdog Badgers this past Wednesday 3-2 (12-15,15-S, 15”11,9-15,21-19). The Warriors had a 13-8 lead in the fifth set, but the stubborn Brock crew
lifts on sets all match long and decided to take that opport&ty late in the game when the match-is on the line to make an inconsistent call. That took away our chance to win it.” The loss drops Waterloo’s record to 2-l and into a three-way tie for second-place in ,the OUAA West division with Western (also at 2-l) and Brock (2-2). McMaster, the 1991-92 provincial champions, are currently in first place with an unblemished 4-O record, while Laurier (l-2), Cuelph (l-3), and Windsor (O3) round out the standings.
Brock won the j7fh set 21-19.
On Wednesday, the Warriors’ were unable to stop Brock’s main offensive-weaponchris Jeffery. The third-year power hitter topped all scorers with 28 points on 26 kills and two stuff blocks. Waterloo’s top guns, junior power hitter Rene Holt and Tenthorey scored 26 and 23 points respectively. Holt posted the best kill efficiency of all players in the match at 35 per cent. Defensively, veteran middle. blocker Perry Strauss collected a team high six stuff blocks, adding nine kills and an ace playing in only the last three games of the match. Earlier in the day, Strauss was hit by a car on Ring Road and despite the advice of his doctor elected to dress for the match.

It has been a fun and exciting couple of months, but on October 31, the University of Waterloo cross country season came to a close. The Warriors placed seventh and the Athenas placed ninth at the Ontario championshipsatSunnybrookPark in Toronto. Both teams were one point away from sixth and eigh& place respectively. Western took the team title in the women’s race, with Toronto and McMaster also qualifying for the CIAU finals in Montreal on November 7. In the men’s division, Toronto ran away with first place, with Windsor and UWO placing second and third respectively. The weather was cool, there was a light breeze, and the terrain was rolling. The course was slicked with mud and included one hill so steep that a normal person would trytofindachair-lifttothetop!This provided all of the athletes with a challenge, one which the Warriors and Athenas were eager to accept. Sepanta Dorri finished in 26th position (19:42) and was the first Athena to cross the line. Dorri ran a tough race and picked up the pace in the second half to ‘breeze’ by several competitors.

The first game was dull, with no aggressive play, no team taking control. Waterloo won 15-7 in a game that had only Michelle Vanvliet’s run of six serves as a highlight. Game two had the teams looking more alive and gave the meagre crowd something to cheer about.

At,he.na-~Volleyball judges said that one of the Athenas bad touched the ball. For some reason Waterloo never really played well again that night. I am going to spare all the gory details but let’s just say game three 15-10 Brock and game four 15c; Rr*#-L “L-II. ”
The fifth game of the match (again with the rally point) had Waterloo put together a stronger effort, but poor service returns were again their downfall. The Badgers took advantage of this going up 14-8. Waterloo at this point needed to win the next six straight rallies just to stay alive. They got three of them but unfortunately that was not enough. After the game coach Dena Deglau was still in disbelief that her team lost three straight games, she also pointed out that nobody on the Athenas had a good game. Luckily, there are still 11 games left in the season and if Waterloo can start playing up to their potential the season will still be a rosie one.‘The Athenas hit the road for their next two games, tonight in Guelph and Wednesday in London, the next home game will be Wednesday, November 25 in the PAC against MacMaster.

Western’s offence helped the Guelph cause with six turnovers, including two John L&lair interceptions late in the second quarter, the second of which blew the game wide open. Leading 21-3, Guelph drove 70 yards in four plays, including a 45-yard swing pass to Popkey and capped off by a N-yard TD pass to Kevin Reid with 18 ticks left before halftime, to make the score 28-3 at the intermission. The Mustangs also turned the ball over on downs three times, once by way of a fake field-goal attempt, Popkey had a brilliant day subbing in at running back for Kyle Walters, who was injured in the first quarter. He rushed 15 times for 64 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 72 yards and another major. After LeClair threw an 18-yard touchdown to Noel Martin at 3:13 . of the third quarter to make the score2&10, it was allGryphs. Gabler threw for two more scores in the fourth quarter, 30 yards to Kevin Reid and 60 yards to Dave Irwin. We The two majors were sandwiched around a 32-yard field goal by Dan Walker. Western’s running-back tandem of Matt Dickie and Sean Reade combined for 106 yards on the ground on 22 carries. Irwin led the Guelph receiving corps with 4 catches for 160 yards. I.&lair had an uncharacteristically terrible day, passing 13-of28 for 154 yards, getting more than adequate protection from his offensive line at least for the first half, when he over or under-threw many receivers. In the second half, Guelph’s ferocious pass rush and blanketlike secondary squelched any chance of a comeback. Guelph upset Toronto 31-17 in overtime in one conference semifinal, while Western edged Laurier 34-31 in the other. Back in the first week of the regular season, Guelph defeated Western 20-18. After anotherloss,Westernwonfivestraight to finish 5-2.

The Acadia Axemen wonbackto-backNaismith’s in 1987and 1988. They traditionally have had a very effective inside game and this year is no different. Sophomore forward Reggie Oblitey and fourth-year pivot Kevin Lee will be muscling through for the high percentage shots. Point guard Eric James, entering his final year of eligibility, will direct the offence, and will be assisted by lon bomb marskrnan Danny Eveleig !?I. Acadia also recruited some height during the offseason, and should challenge St. Francis Xavier this February for the AUAA conference championship.

The Laurentian Voyageurs have mammoth scoring capability and a very wide range of attack. They are led by the guarding tandem of Norm and Brad Hahn. Norm, the all-time leading scorer in OUAA history, polished off his fourth year with a collosal 27.1 points per game. Brad averaged over 12 points per game and was named to the OUAA Central Section second all-star team. With the graduation of big men John Campbell, IDwayne Rivard, and Brad Austin, the Voyageurs have no depth at the post and power forward positions. Those spot are currently held by veterans Chris Fischer and Brad Rollo.

The St* Francis Xavier X-Men could make history at this year’s Naismith Classic. If they win it, they will be the first team ever to win four straight championships. St.F.X. will probably stick to the game plan that was so effective in their earlier a pearances: feed the ball to Richar B Bella inside or at the high post and add a few perimeter shots once in a while to spread the opposing defence and take some pressure off the forwards.

Gary Jeffries
Third-year point-man Chris Livingstone will quarterback the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawk offence with several speedy guards in strong support. With one year under his belt, 6’T’ post Tom Pallin has established himself as one of the tougher bi men inside. Veteran forwards Sa awn Roach and Alex Thornton are usually strong on a baseline approach and position well for rebounds. The loss of veteran forward Steve Duncan and senior guard Danny Deep may hurt Laurier, but they are a team not to be taken lightly. They could be the darkhorse of the OUAA West in 1992-93.

Bill Wedlake
Wtipeg, one of the CIAU’s defensive specialists, is a scrappy squad which usually wins games with masterful rebounding and a run and gun offence. Their quick transition game keeps opposing defenses on their toes. The Wesmen have some giants inside including 7’0” centre Norm Froemel and dynamic 6’8” All-Canadian forward Jeff Forman. Winnipeg also has a lot of experience at the guard position with only one of the six avaiiableperimeter men having less than two years of CIAU play under his belt. David Korpela and Rob Derksen are the probable back court starters.

Premier mmamervt 25th year by lsubelle Schadet Imprint stuff
The 25th Naismith Classic Basketball tournament begins today (Friday, November 13) and runs until Sunday, November 15 here at the University of Waterloo’s Physical Activities Complex. The Naismith, formerly called the Tip-off Tournament, was the invention of the former director of athletics Carl Totzke. He wanted to “start the [basketball] season with a heck of a tip-off” by bringing together some of the best basketball teams from various areas of Canada and host an eight-team basketball tournament. A couple of years later Mike Lavalle took over the team and suggested renaming the tournament to honour the Canadian inventor of the game, Dr. J. Naismith, a native of Almonte, Ontario. Legend has it that Naismith threw a small ball through a pkach basket and thereby invented the game one hundred and one years ago.
Since its early days, almost all basketball playing members of the CIAU have participated in the Naismith Classic tournament. In fact, it is the Naismith tournament that is the model for eight-team tournaments across Canada. The Naismith tournament did not always coincide with Homecoming. Yet, at some point, according to athletics information director PaulCondon, it was discovered that the Naismith Classic tournament drew the largest group of alumni back to the university over any other event. Since the Naismith is traditionally a strong fournament, only coaches that have strong teams ask to play in the Naismith. This year, the eight teams in the tournament are: the Waterloo Warriors, the Winnipeg Wesmen, the Laurier Golden Hawks, the Guelph Gryphons, the Acadia Axemen, the Laurentian Voyageurs, the St. Francis-Xavier X-men, and the Carleton Ravens. This year’s tournament promises to be extremely exciting. It is the first year for Tom Kieswetter as head coach, yet he is neither new to the Warriors, nor to the Naismith tournament, Kieswetter played for the Warriors in the first game back in 1968, This year, there is also the possibility that the St. Francis Xavier Xmen could win their fourth consecutive Naismith championship. The X-men have won the crown for the past three years. The Warriors have recorded duee-in-a-row titles twice in the past, 1973 to 1975 and 1983 to 1985. May thebest team win!

The Glass Caravanaserai Santana Skybowl Sunday, November by Scott Imprint
conductstheminahighenergyperformance that can get even the most static person up on thier feet and dancing. About halfway through the show, Santana was joined by openingband Third World for a resounding tribute to Bob Marley. Third World members (all five of them) hooked right in to Carlos’ telekineticwavesandprovidedthecrowd with a 25minute version of “Exodus” that proved to be the climax of the night. The only negative experience at this concert was the venue itself. Yes, it was impressive to see SkyDome for the first time, and yes, it was a thrill to take photographs right at the front of the stage, but the seating provided for members of the press was shitty to say the least. We were stuck in the baseball press seats -- you know, the ones about half a mile up from the floor. The sound was really lame, and we literally had the worst seats in the house. Bands like Santana are best seen at places like Massey Hall, where the accous tics of classic architecture are far superior to those of a giant dishtowel draped over one of the manysquaremiles inside SkyDome.

Deveber stuff
No laser beams, discoballs or excessive lung-bleeding smoke, just a couple of spotlights, a hell of a band, and the man himself -Carlos Santana. This past Sunday, Nov. 1, Santana made a rare and well anticipated appearance at SkyDome in Toronto. Taking the stage promptly at 8:30, Carlos and the boys put on a show that lasted over two hours and had many jubilant fans jumping around to the funky tunes that have endured in the hearts of hippies for almost 30 years. The band covered a surprisingly wide range of their material, from early songs like “Black Magic Woman,” “Oye Como Va,” and “Se a Cabo”, to a few songs (I can’t remember the names) from their new album Milagro. My preferences lie with the older stuff because this new material seems to be directed at fans who were my age back in ’60s and ’70s. Yes, even the most energetic of us get older and mellow out, so I guess Carlos can’t be blamed for writing songs that sound more like elevator

Talking to the Hermit about Poetry by Bernard Kearney Imprint staff
Yourbrother,ChrisBottomley,and you were together in a punk Tulpa. .
A scheduling cock-up last week found Vancouver based singer/ songwriter John Bottomley performing a free gig Friday the 12th instead of the advertized 11 th. Despair not if you missed Friday’s gig as he to perform tomorrow night at the Commercial tavern in Maryhill. Amidst the confusion, John still managed to find a little time to sit down and talk to Imprint about a ,myriad of topics including his work with T Bone Burnett, his brother and songwriting.
Yeah, for nine years, we made two records. We might do another one again someday. We were thinking that a side project may be a really good thing to do because it would be an interesting form considering we have learned what we have in our own way. It would be neat to collaborate on something just to see what would happen. Something to do for fun.
Your new album Songs witI2 an Ornamental Hermit credits T Bone Burnett as the producer for several tracks. What was the man like to work with? He was great, an amazing character, probably the funniest guy I’ve ever met, and he works really quickly. He’s been doing it long enough to know what works and what doesn’t. He tries to bring out what the artist has. The stuff I recorded with him was done really fast, and then we mixed the whole album in L.A. He came in at the end to help record three songs (“Red Road, ’ “Bringing Down the Moon,” and “Ballad of Jacob Peck”). Then we went to LA and did everything in two or three weeks. He introduced me to a lot of new things, like this new band coming out of San Francisco called the Counting Crows, and Five Blind Boys, they’re kind of neat.
band,
Given that much of your music incorporates storytelling, something that can be expounded in a live context, how do you find your music translates on iecord. There is no substitute for live performance, anywhere. The good thin about playing live is the persona j itv, esDeciallv if vou have a really &eat bight, &r&e recording which is a lot of theorv. I like recording a lot too beca&e you can use your imagination and really work at it. But live is for the moment. You only get one go at it and you can’t fix it. I like that. Listening to Songs with the Omamental Hermitt I can’t help but notice a distinct Waterboys feeling in some of your vocal stylings. Have you ever been compared to them?
Yeah, I have been. Actually, it’s a funny thing, last week in an interview, I was compared to T Bone Burnett. I thought that was really
funny, since he worked on my album. But yeah, the Waterboys has come up a lot. The way I see it, Mike Scott is influenced by Bob Dylan a lot, and I’m influenced by Bob Dylan a lot. So I think Dylan is where the influence comes from. Maybe it has something to the way the music is approached. What’s proach
the John Bottomley to songwriting?
ap-
I will very rarely go out. I’ll just work, research and work. Spend weeks and weeks just working on stuff. and that’s all that’s on my mind - nothing else matters. If you want to get a song done or finished, you should do it right away, because obviously it is very easy to get distracted. I think it’s a good thing to go into some kind of shed or. something. Dylan Thomas used to have a shed in the back of his place in Wales. Is songwriting you?

an arduous
task for
Each song is different. I try to go for different approaches on it. “Ballad of Jacob Peck” took four ears to write, but I wasn’t in any K urry to write it. Then other songs may take a few weeks or months, just to gather and work. I dunno, you might be looking for something and you et frustrated. It’s a funny process Por me and it comes at weird times. Sometimes I can whip out a tune. For example, “Sarah Whitehead” was done in two days. “Red Road” was also written very fast.
I heard that the recording with T Bone Burnett was done very quickly That must have been interesting, given the labour in penning some of the songs. That’s right, everything was done in first takes. There are actually many versions of “Peck,” that didn’t make the record. So I just sat down and said that I wanted to create a rattled version of it. I didn’t want it to be perfect or anything. Afterwards, we actually did do overdubs for it, but then thought “Naw, it sounds like. . . an overdub. It was interesting though. Considering your present musical penchant, ballads, storytelling, and the like, it is interesting to note that Tulpa, the band you were originally in, was a type of punk band. I don’t think it’s good to repeat yourself too much. I don’t think it’s good for your soul. I think it is healthy to gather new things, rejuvenate yourself and come out with somethin new. I’m lucky % ecause I’m a songwriter and a solo artist too, so I can go anywhere I want whereas, with a band, and I know because I played in a one for nine years, you’ve got four or five different heads and it’s sometimes hard to have a group of people all wanting to go in the same direction

Looking for Mr. Wrong D.O.A./Mr. Wrong/Dog Eat Dog Phil’s Bar and Grill Wednesday, Nov. 4 by Andy
Koch
lmpfint stu# Wednesday, November 4 saw a heavy-duty triple bill of Vancouver acts hitting Waterloo. Upon descending the stairs of Phil’s to catch this event, I couldn’t help thinking to myself: here I am 23, years old, about to graduate, and stillhangingaroundatpunkshows. Do I really still have fun at these things? The answer, for this night anyway, was a resounding yes. Dog Eat Dog (formerly Dogzilla) kicked things off around 10 p.m., and burst into the funky “Psychobabble” from their new CD release. This set the tone for a competent and occasionally rousing set of music. Dog Eat Dog are one of those hybrid bands. Their repertoire draws equally upon funk, metal, and fast punk. Unfortunately, they fail to blend these styles into any new sort of musical concoction. Over the course of their performance, it was usually obvious (sometimes painfully so) which of these three styles they were playing. But,
considering they’re a relatively new band, I’ll have to give them a tentative thumbs up. Next up was the heavily anticipated (at least by my friends and I) appearance by Mr. Wrong. For those who don’t know, Mr. Wrong is Rob Wright,bassGodextrordinairefrom the legendary NoMeansNo. Mr. Wrong took the stage clad in sunglasses, an army cap, and a priest’s collar. Whether this was supposed be some sort of statement on< authoritarianism or something, I’m not sure, but his stage garb became irrelevant as soon as the first distorted refrains rumbled out of his bass rig. The notion of a solo bass/vocal performance is a pretty novel one. There were those with blank facial expressions who obviously didn’t know what to think. Others were probably thinking “Who the hell does this guy think he is, anyway?” And then their were those of us who knowingly exchanged grins as we were engulfed by the engaging sounds of one of our musical heroes. By the time Mr. Wrong had run through some striking new compositions, and launched into the peachy NoMeansNo anthem “Now,” the audience was beginning to warm to the throbbing,
grinding chords and runs of Mr. Wrong’s bassalongwiththe twisted glimpses of humanity offered by his lyrics. He finished with the inyour-face “Kill Everyone Now” which seemed to be a more extreme take on the ironic black humour of the Dead Kennedy’s “Kill the Poor.” The good news is that there’s plenty of projects in the works for Rob Wright. Rob and his rhythmically obsessed brother John teamed up for a Hanson Brothers album that should be out very soon on Alternative Tentacles. The Hanson Brothers is the NoMeansNo alter ego band that is responsible for such Ramones-rock classics as “Dad” and “Oh No, Bruno!“. Fans can also expect a Mr. Wrong single in the near future as well as a new NoMeansNo record, and hopefully atour,nextspring.GuitargeekAndy Kerr is no longer with NoMeansNo. Wright reports that Andy just got married and is living in Holland. Getting back to the show, Canadian punk legends D.O.A. are back on the road after a two year hiatus and seem hell-bent on dispelling any scepticism about their status as underground dinosaurs. Much to the surprise and pleasure of those in attendance, D.O.A. managed to evoke much of the excitement and energy that marked many

switched into an abridged version of “Too Old to Rock n’ Roll, Too Young to Die. ” “Bouree” was mildly disappointing, but the set-ending “Aqualung” -- the classic Tull tune -- brought the house down with its sped-up, heavily distorted energy and pace.

pumped version of “Locomotive Breath,” and after a suitable wait, Tull returned for an encore of “Thick As a Brick,” performing it with their usual musical explorations and variations. Was there anything flawed in the show? Yes; the lighting was “off at times -- the lights would go off before the band was finished, the spot1igh.t would be on the wrong person, and so on. But the main detractor was Anderson’s (and, really, the entire group’s) attitude towards the audience. You were there to watch; participation was not desired. Anderson’s mocking of people cheering (at one photo by Jeff Warner point he asked those who wanted to yeIl to go see Springsteen or Ozzy), and ignoring the audience in general (when a girl threw roses on stage he nonchalant1 pitched them to the side wit K scarcely anod of acknowledgement) spoiled any sense of “belonging.” It was hard to feel intimate with a
stage during the-encore). That aside, the show remained stunning. The -sound quality was perfect, with no audible feedback or distortion, and every note and nuance of the Tull was loud and clear. They showed without a doubt that they still have it. Jethro Tull remain one of the most talented bands in existence.
of their barn-burners of the past. I’m sure the crowd’s enthusiasmandconsumptionoflargequantities of draught had a lot to do with making this a memorable night, but D.O.A. deserves credit as well. Stripped down to a three-piece unit for the first time in 13 years, Joey (Shithead) Keighley, Brian Goble, and hot new drummer Ken J&son, cranked out a rollicking dose of vintage hardcore punk. The boys overlooked the slower, rock-influenced material that dominated their last few releases in favour of selections from their ‘79-‘84 heyday. It was great to hear them play a slew of classics from Something Better Change, one of the best combinations of raw energy, no-nonsense lyrics and tasteful power-chords ever to be called a punk record. There’s no denying that such “nuggets” as “The Enemy,” “Woke Up Screaming,” “Class War,” and the brilliant cover of “War” still

When the drunken glow of the evening had worn off, I couldn’t help but realize that D.O.A. has little to offer that is new or vital. After all, it’s hard not to be a bit cynical about guys who are pushing 40 and still singing “we don’t -care what you say, Fuck You!” But the multiple generations of fans in attendance (the crowd ranged in age from about 16 to 35) all seemed more than happy to induige in an honest and energetic serving of punk by the band that coined the term hardcore.

Bentall gets Cockburn surprise
The Men They Couldn’t Boil Boiled in Lead El Macombo, Toronto November 8,1992 by Bemud
been kept a secret from the Toronto music scene, especially when you consider that they performed their very first gig on St Paddy’s Day in ‘83. Since 1983, Boiled in Lead have undergone changes to pervade everything from line up to music. This is not your regular folk act. As Drew Miller (bassist) puts it, “we’re channelling men, not folkies. We’re not looking to preserve traditions, but pass them on.” The very name Boiled in Lead, ,itself seems to stand as an excellent indication that this band is not easily pinned, labelled or boxed. Based upon the moniker, one would probably think them to be thrash, or grunge, hardly musically sophisticated. In fact, it may surprise you to hear that Boiled in Lead perform music spanning from the British Isles all the way to Macedonia, stopping inTurkey for more than just the coffee and smokes, en route back to the States. What is even more fascinating is their ability to incorporate the various musical styles into something that is distinct, highly original, and at all at once, fluid.

A comprehensive description of Boiled in Lead finds me in a quandary when trying to articulate. Critics have said “Celtic folk punk”, “Celtodelticsurfmusic”, or “thrash metal folk.” Band names like the rogues and The Men They Couldn’t Hang have often been employed when attempting to find a label for the type of music Boiled in Lead produce. I say Boiled in Lead is the G Marco Polo of the musical world, and to try to label them is to stifle what they enjoy most, musical travelling. HailingfromMinnesota,Boiled in Lead have enjoyed critical success throughout Europe and the States. Formed in 1983, they marked their Toronto debut last Sunday night in front of an intimate, yet enthusiastic crowd. A crowd favourite at Winnipeg Folk Festival, it seems curious that they should have

This is definitely a band that must be experienced in a live context. Since they probably won’t be back until the Spring (so they say) you may be interested in picking up some of their recorded material. Old Lead, a collection of their first two albums has recently been released on CD. Entitled Old Lead, it Proves to be an excellent BiL starter kit. From the Ladle to the Grave is their best known to date, but their most recent release is Orb, itself almost two years old. “Drew points out that Orb, “showcases the acoustic side of band and is perhaps, deceptively tame”. There was no stadium lightshow or smokefest Sunday night, to back the band on stage, yet, truly, they were more than visually stimulating. Boasting an array of eclectic instruments ranging from thebodhran to a bizarre homemade drum, the band was a wonder to watch individually and as a whole. Joe on the electric fiddle bounced, swooped and swooned more than any fiddler has the right to do yet, the fluidity of his motion aided to create an atmosphere of sheer relaxation, especially during some of the more intricate numbers. Todd Menton’s vocals, combined with his mastery of a myriad of instruments including guitar, tin whistle and the bodhran, amazed and delighted all in attendance. It was also a drummer’s dream to witness Robin “Adnan” Anders working so closely with Drew (on bass and dobrin) to provide the backbone critical for musical cohesiveness. Admittedly, the size of the crowd was relatively small, but judgingby the response and enthusiasm exhibited throughout and especially during the encores, if the shampoocommercialtheory proves true (and they told two friends, and so on. . ) a day not too far in the distant future will find that Massey Hall will be too small a venue to house Boiled in Lead.

Wow. Tool. Not to be confused with “what a tool” or MC Hammer or anything like that. Tool is a band from Los Angeles with a mission to dispel 2 the myth that the city of angels is filled with nothing but cockrock. The tunes are very, very heavy and sometimes pretty fast, but it’s far from thrash. Everything is completely competent, not that some thrash isn’t- There are no long ridiculous guitar solos and the vocals are very clean. There are no cartoon lyrics. The ep opens up with “Sweat”, a prodding track that sounds almost like a heavy remake of something from A.M. radio. It’s funky, has a great hook for the chorus, withthelyrics writtenby, say, PhilCollins, but it’s done in definite Tool style. Nuff said. The second song, “Hush”, is destined to be a classic. It’s what rock n’ roil was supposed to sound like: “I can’t say what I want to/ even if I’m not serious/ fuck yourself/ you piece of shit why don’t you go kill yourself”. Now, of course, it would depend on what he’s trying to say, but it seems to be like he’s got a pretty powerful point across. These lyrics don’t sound like any angst-ridden cliche in the* actual song, though. Trust me, somehow they get away with it. “Part Of Me” is essentially a (what?) love song. But I tell you time and time again that Tool is incapable of sounding cliche and this is no exception, even when vocalist Maynard sings “You don’t speak/ you don’t judge/ I know you better than I know myself/ You are just a part of me”. The next two songs are live, proving that a Tool show would kick. Their switches from mellow, melodic parts to &ash riffs are always tight and the vocals are as clean and strong as ever. The in-between song commentary is kind of funny, too: “Throw that Bob Marley wannabe motherfucker outa here.” “Jerk-off” (live) sounds like a heavier version of Rush or something like that. Who knows? But the title track ‘Qpiate” (not live) is a power ballad to end all power ballads. Metallica will never compose again. Incredible, you say? How much would you pay for a tape like this? But wait, there’s more. Jt comes with a cool sticker of the band’s logo. Now how much would you pay? Not much because it’s a ep with the same six songs repeated on both sides and void of a lyric sheet. Hey, don’t worry about it, they’re easy to decipher. So buy it. When the full-length album comes out, buy it, See them in concert if they come around here. Let Tool enter your

And so, the Sub Pop story continues WithSeattle band after Seattle band being signed and given major contracts because they are., . Seattle bands. The obvious and unfortunate result is that something like Gruntruck is the result. While easily fitting into the Alternative label which, if things go well for them over the next year, will result in a spot on next year’s Lollapalooza ticket, another year in the studio would garner much more favourable results. This is the more on the Tad end of the scale (as if the word “Grunt” in the title wasn’t hint enough) and definitely as heavy as they come. The opening chords from “Tribe” forcefeeds you the dis-ease that the music creates, and that may appeal to some, but the overall effect lacks the melody of acts like L7, and creates more of a moulded sound. This all sort of comes back to what the label Altemativemm, It has less to do with things like d&ibution and corporate backing or financial status, and far more to do with the actual sound being produ&d. Currently, Alternative is a label used to de&ibe bands like Ministry, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Sugar, or say the Jesus and Mary
where I’m c&ing from. Gruntruck simply don’t posses mough originality to warrant repeated lyrics. If you’re drunk, I’m sure Gruntruck would be one of your first choices. While originality may not be the primary concern of musicians, it should at least be part of a concern, For what they’re doing, Gruntruck do it well enough to warrant the sales they’ll no doubt receive, but they need something more behind them to be truly deserving. Bands like Superchunk are going to constantly find new ways of exploring the genre they’re in, but Gruntruck, I fear, are going to constantly be playing catch-up if this album any indication.

Gallon Drunk are either extremely clever or extremely lucky. Their debut (which appears after a slew of much-hyped singles as well as an opening slot for Morrissey) coincides with a greatest hits pack>-age by their most obvious _xforebearers The Birthday Party. Obviously not a calculated manoeuvre, this can only draw more eyes upon them and deliver unto them some well-deserved attention. While obviously (and indeed to a fault) very Birthday Party&h, they manage to pull it off incredibly -+&well and since they have such a great band to draw their influence from, it’s easy to overlook the fact that they’re ripping them off. Never have a band been SO appropriately summed up by the _. ritish music papers. Someone in P * NME described them as part Birthday Party and pad rockabilly, and this is how I have and will continue to describe them having now heard the album. The rockabilly is a bit of -,a misnomer. They’re about as rockabilly as Morrissey’s band, which is not very. The sort‘of back/ updating of Tracy Pew’s bass is ob-

(Of course you’dbehardpressed to find evidence of this in Seattle itself.) Cruntruck’s closest comparison is Soundgarden. There’s a 5050 blend of James H&field’s voice and an attempt at something more than power chords and guitar solos. Jesus Christ Pose definitely wouldn’t be out of place on this disc.

Close your eyes, wait for the wah wah droning sounds to emerge from your stereo speakers and taunt you to join in on their rollarcoaster ride through wildly cosmic and bright starried skies - a kind of space odyssey if you will. The first song on side A, ‘Throw Off the Shackles”, has the ghost of SoHo’s “Hippiechick” passing through the skeletal framework of its bones. It’s mainly an instrumental tune, mixed with a type of tribal chanting and a drop of a computer voice that comes in to babble in bubbles ‘kids and knowledge”. The second track, “Moodswings Overature”, carries much of the same sound with yet another endearing voice to inform you that “you are now in tune to the best”. Now that’s pushing the parameters just a wee bit far over yonder. Let’s kep in mind that this is not the William Tell Overature by G. Verdi. Become egocentric and those nasty little buggers of unattractive stretch marks begin to appear for free. It’s difficult to differentiate where this song ends and the next begins.

Whether or not you’re a fan of the Rollins band and/or Black Flag, Hwmn Butt offers something significantly different than Henry’s standard musical fare. In fact, there is no music at all on this double CD. Just pure spoken word, and plenty of it. A mere seven tracks makes each of these discs full-length ones, with most skits clocking in at twenty minutes or longer. Production of spoken word albums by artists popular among the “alternative” crowd seem to be on the increase lately but, unlike the plethora of mainstream copycat weasels, the quality hasn’t been di-;*;#Tk*A

Compare it to your favourite musical group: do you get tired of them after hearing thesamesongafewhundredtimes? Human Butt, the title of the album, could mean a couple things. It could have something to do with him repeatedly referring to himself as an asshole throughout all the tracks. Perhaps he feels he represents the lowest grade, or the butt, of humanity. I dunno. Regardless, if you’re a fan of his music, it might help put a new perspective on his tunes after listening to this a couple times. For me, “Do it!” will just never be the same again..,.

Both Chick Corea and Bobby McFerrin are well established jazz performers who have dabbled in more mainstream ways. Who could forget (or forgive) McFerrin’s anthem for the brain dead “Don’t Worry,Be Happy”. Fortunately, neither performer stoops to such levels in this live recording.
Although this is far from challenging music (Corea gave that up after a one and a half year stint with Circle in the early Seventies), the interactions ‘of McFerrin’s vocalizations and Corea’s piano bear repeated listening. The fiit track “Spain” begins with Corea establishing the song’s framework with some strong percussive playing. Unfortunately, Corea backs off when McFerrin starts vocalizing, and the piece slips back into a comfortable groove. “Even For Me” fairs much worse, and I’ve yet been able to maintain interest throughout the entire piece. “Autumn Leaves”, a Kearns/ Mercer piece has probably been played by every smarmy lounge act ever, and McFerrin realizes this when he introduces the song. The theme of play is never more evident
here: McFerrin plays with both Curea and the audience. The humour McFerrin brings to the song (he even sings) suggests a reverence for the piece, while bypassing the insipid aspects the piece has gathered over the years. “Blues Connotation” continues the playfulness, and features McFerrin’s incredible vocal range as he improvises over Corea’s theme.BoththeMonkpiece “Round Midnight”, and Dorham’s “Blue Bossa” are bland, background music that ends the cd on a low note. Forthosewhohaveneverheard McFerrin’s improvised vocalizing, this release

ied music by going to festivals like this. You hear about a lot of good bands, and if you don’t get the opportunity to see them in a club, by going to Glastonbury, you get a chance to pick up on a lot of these acts. Given the obvious Celtic influence in the band, what has the reaction been when touring Ireland? Do you find that they embrace your style or are they somewhat jaded? No, not at all. The Irish are not solely into folk music. They appreciate rock music. The audience that we play to fiid it very refreshing to hear something with a different angle. We’re not a folk band and we’re very adamant about that, but at the same token, we do draw some influences from folk. For example, we use a violin like a lead electric guitar. Would you agree that the Clash comparisons are accurate? Insomeways,we’dliketothink so. In terms of the songs that they wrote and the attitudes that they had. The Clash is one band that everyone in our band really admires. Then there’s the “raggle taggle gypsy” image that. . . belongs to us, yes. . . .belongs to you. Okay. Surely ;bu’ve encountered Waterboys comparisons. We used to. I guess it’s funny, I guess if you listen to the records,
and read some of the reviews, you’d probablygo”Yeah, Waterboys,definitely. But they don’t say that after they’ve come to see us live. I guess that blows that little theory out, doesn’t it? What bands would you consider your peers, bands that you’d like to or have toured with? It’s hard to say what bands we’d like to tour with in North America. But, there’s quite a few bands ’ England, like Churnbuwrmba, who have been going a lot longer than we have. There’s Back to the Planet. They’re a really good baud, up and coming, very new. They have been touring with us in Great Britain. We actually chose them. They’re a band that didn’t have any major interest from the music business and needed a bit of exposure by playing in front of audiences. We thought “Yeah, we’ll have them on our tour”, and they’ve been quite popular. Now, they’ve been signed to one of the decent record companies and we feel very good about that. Touring with us at the moment is a band called Me Phi Me4 I’m not so sure because they’re very different to us. I’m not sure if there was a bit of a mix up, they seem more like a band that could tour with Public Enemy, but I quite like them. Touring and the live atmosphere is intrinsic to what the Levellers is all about. Does this remain the present focus or are you looking
forward to doing some more recording? We will be doing some more recording, in February and March, with the hopes of finishing recording by the end of April. And in July it should be released. So that’s the main project coming up next. I have read that Jeremy (bassist) commented that a Levellers gig is “like going to a little festival. We like to put on a bit of a circus, bit of a carnival.” What kind of things can we look forward to or expect when the Levellers come to Toronto on November il? Unfortunately, because we’re in an area that we’re not all that familiar with, and we have to sort of start again, it’s a bit more stripped down, but you canexpect a didgeridoo player, with a microphone on it going through a PA system. It does sound wicked. Let’s see what else would you expect. . . you could expect a live show, a really lively live show. We don’t give our best unless the audience gives their best. We’ll heckle the audience until they give their best and then we’ll give our best. See what I mean? So you try to gauge the audience? Yeah, we’re very much into that, but we don’t really hassle them. We just try to get them to let their hair down and get them to shout. I mean if you think we’re shit, then say so, shout “SHIT”. I think a lot of people really get off on that.

Most of the first half of Springsteen’s patented four hour marathon consisted of tracks from the two new albums He opened with “Better Days”, “Local Hero”, and “Lucky Town” and layered “Living Proof”, and “57 Channels” between the climactic oldies “Badlands”, and “Trapped”. Bruce never distanced himself from his audience, Many times throughout the evening he spoke of the emotions that laid out the groundwork for a particular song he wrote. Before playing “Leap Of Faith”, Springsteen talked about broken relationships and the classicprinciple of ‘other fish in the sea’. “No matter how bad you fuck it up, you always get one more chance and this song is about getting that chance.” Between verses of “Leap Of Faith” The Boss took the opportunity to peck a few lovelies in the front row and then ‘leapt’ into the audience during the instrumental. Springsteen ended the first set by inviting backup singer Bobby King down to the front of the stage to sing “Man’s Job”, and “Rollpf the Dice”. Thelatter produced a shower of toy dice from the front ten rows. One downfall of the concert if any could have been the long drawnout instrumentals and interludes which seemed to lull the crowd rather than fascinate. The first such sobering interlude occurred in “Roll of the Dice”. After a 40 minute intermission, The Boss returned wearing a less formal, blue-collar wardrobe of sleveless jacket, blue jeans, and boots and ixnxnedi$ely jumped into “Gloria’s Eyes”. Then for the first time in the eve*& he took a Sample from Born In The U.S.A. “Cover Me”whichsentthe2!j,~plusfaitbfulintoafrenzy.
The fans had a chance to catch their breaths during acoustic versions of “Brilliant Disguise”, “Soul Driver”, and “Souls of the Departed” before rising to their feet once again for the anthemic ‘Born In The U.S.A.” Bruce finished off with”Real World”,and al2-minute version of’ Just Around The Corner To The Other Side”. Midway through the closer the music stopped and Springsteen froze for over a minute. He then began moving his head from sectiontosectiontogetalittlecheering competition going. For the first of three encore sets, Springsteen began with ‘Human Touch”. Then just before playing the baseball ditty “Glory Days” hecongratulatedtheTorontocrowd on their World Series victory. He sung the song with a Jays cap on (backwards), and finished off with the heartbreaker “Bobby Jean”. Armed with a harmonica and acoustic guitar, Bruce began the second encore with the true highlightoftheevening”ThunderRoad” which he dedicated to all of his old fans. After the song was over he said,‘Well,wecan’tsendyouhome without this one,” and the entire cast joined in to blast out his signature tune “Born To Run”. The final encore started with the acoustically flavoured “My Beautiful Reward”. He then thanked the crowd, clenched a fist, thumped his heart, and pointed his fist to the crowd saying, ‘Thank you. I love you. God Bless,” adding “I can’t leave without playing some highway music”, and as the clock wound past tidnight, Bruce polished off the show with “Working On The Highway”.

There’s a ghost in Kitchener. If you don’t believe me go and see for yourself at the Centre in the Square. From now until November 29th, you are invited to ‘come See the Phantom’, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s production of Phantom of the Opera directed by Harold Prince. If you have never heard of this production before, what planet are you living on? The Phantom of the Opera is a musical based on a novel by Gaston Leroux written in 1911+ The story is set in the Paris Opera House just before the turn of the century. A hideously deformed circus sideshow escapee takes up residence in the @era House. He proceeds to fall in love with a young soprano, Christine Daa6 and under his secret tutelage she becomes the star of the Company. Along with Christine’s success comes a rival for Christine’s affections and so the Phantom takes matters into his own hands. The story continues as one would expect; conflicts, murders, +ooky stuff, and special effects. No effort has been spared in this Canadian National Tour. In the fact sheet included in the press kit are some very interesting (though useless) tidbits of information for inquiring minds. Each performance of the Phantom involves 130 people, 230 costumes, 150 pairs of shoes

you won’t be disappointed. The first time I saw Phantom of the Opera, I was captivated by the special effects and haunting melodies. Although the production at the Centre in the Square was of surprisingly high calibre despite it’s touring show status, this time I saw past the performances of the cast and the mastery of the technical crew, to the musical itself. There is little doubt as to who will win in the love triangle. From the first scene at the auction we are given the answer. Every detail of the plot is spelled out, with no assumption on the part of Mr Lloyd Webber that the audience is intelligent and could figure out what is going on without much of the superfluous dialogue. Of course the prices of the tickets alone indicate that perhaps he is not far from right. The result of the simplified plot and minutely detailed structure are reminiscent of an elaborate pantomime. Andrew Lloyd Webber has found a formula in writing musicals that, besides making him incredibly wealthy, has seduced many of his fans into thinking that the performances are cultural events.

Phantasmagoria and 115 wigs. A total of 60,000 pounds of counterweights are needed to balance the sets. There are 53 mechanized scenic effects. The production also uses 8 miles of steel cable, 8 miles of electric cable and 2 miles of computer cable (used for the 5 computers necessary to operate the scenery, sound effects, lighting and special effects). The chatidelier weighs 1,000 pounds and is driven by two lo-horsepower motors. Whew! Special effects aside, what makes this production exciting for me, and probably appeases the Canadiancontent Gods, is the number of Canadian performers involved, most notably Jeff Hyslop in the role of the Phantom. Hyslop is an internationalveteranofmusicalsnotonly as actor but as dancer, singer, choreographer and theatre director. Many people, especially those with much younger siblings, will recognize Hyslop as Jeff the Mannequin from the television show ‘Today’s Special’ (remember the plaid pants with matching vest and hat?). The role of Christine is played by Teresa De Zarn who is also a veteran of the musicals playing roles in Cats, West Side Story, and others. Christine’s love interest, Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny, is played by the very hunky Doug Labrecque. These three form the love triangle around which the story is based.

Ride the War Wagon by Derek Weiler imprint stuff
Dissatisfaction with the Sounds of Summer -- the local music festival that UW hosts at Waterloo Park each year -- usually seems to run along two distinct lines. The first bemoans the lack of big-name internationalstars: one Xmprint reviewer referred to the summer ‘91 lineup as “a collect& of bands I consider mediocre to pathetic.” Conversely, others contend that the organizers have a tendency to spurn a great deal of worthwhile local talent. War Wagon, a local Celticgrunge combo (sorry guys, just doing my job), are firmly in the latter camp. ln fact, they’ve gone so far as to organize “the Sounds of Sludge,” a two-night stand of local acts that will appear at Phil’s Grandson’s Place next Tuesday and Wednesday (Nov. 17 and 18). Tuesday night will see performances by the Guelph band Silly but (featuring Imprint alumnus Don Kudo); new local act Tank Top, and headliners An April March. An April March are now based in Toronto but were formed in Waterloo Region; they are currently enjoying some success as winners of last year’s CFNY Toronto talent search, On Wednesday night, the lineup includes War Wagon, Guelph act King Cobb Steelie, and a Burlington/ Waterloo band called Bogg (which includes former members of the Cockleshell Heroes). Overall, the collection of bands is a
diverse one, ranging from An April March’s art-rock stylings to the fI REHOSE-influenced progressive postpunk of King Cobb Steelie. The mgndate for the Sounds of Sludge was a simple one: to provide

As for War Wagon themselves, they have been one of Waterloo’s leading lights since January, 1990. Most members had been in bands previously, but they came together as War Wagon in order to play a Wilfrid Laurier University talent show. Their sound has developed into a likeable blend of indie guitar rock and Celtic folk. As for the influence of the latter, the two singer/lyricists (Pierce
and Mike Wert) both cite theirchildhoods in the Ottawa Valley, and their interest in Canadian history and Canadian folk songs. As Pierce says, “We like to play the kinds of folk songs that you can find in a Grade Three music primer.” (Live, the band has been known to cover the Velvets’ “What Goes On” and The Wedding Present’s “Kennedy” as well as “I’se the Bye” or astompin Tom tune.) Also, notes Pierce, Celtic music is “instantly fun and accessible. There’s not many other forms of music that you start stomping your f& to automatically.” Finnigan’s Tongue, War Wagon’s fine new demo tape, was recorded at Sound on Sound Studios, run by local producer and engineer Nelson McCrossan. The group had actually won studio time with McCrossan in a street musician’s contest in the summer of 1991. It did take them a year to feel comfortable with the idea of entering a studio (and to acclimate new bassist Tammy St&on) but once they did they were more than pleased with the result. “We had recorded one song for a contest at CKWR,” says drummer Garth Wit&h, “and they just softened it up too much, made it too pretty.” Adds Pierce: “They thought we couldn’t possibly have wanted it to sound the way it did. But we prefer a very loose, live sound. Clean, but still.. . we like the energy we get from playing live and we think the new tape captures that pretty well.”

The new album pulls away slightly from the full-throttle,
hard core offerings which filled the first few Megadeth albums. On Countdown To Extinction, founder, vocalist, and guitarist Dave Mustaine keeps up the intensity while adding more substance and attitude to the direction. The ingenious musicianship of this foursome is brought out even better at a live gig. Mustaine’s razor-edged vocals carve their way into even the stubbornest of minds,

“Ooooooh - it’s so violent!” “Waaaaa! I don’t like to see violence! ” ” Waaaaa! It might make me admit that we live in violent times.” “Waaaaaa! I much prefer my ignorant world view that refuses to acknowledge that there exists in our greed-driven society a criminal contingent whose purpose it is to take others’ possessions by means of force.” Such are the objections to Reseruoir Dogs, a violent movie about violent people. To those who condemn the movie’s violence, attend please: TIzis movie is about criminals. Criminals are well known for not obeying laws, including those that govern whether or not it is appropn’a te to hurt people. Yes, Reservoir Dogs is violent; brutally so. Director Tarintino (who also has a bit part as one of the thieves) seems to take a certain glee in presenting us with the embodiment of macho posturing -- the instructors in the “FUCK YOU!!” School of Testosterone Bravura, if you will. Each of the characters is a professional. it’s just that their profession often involves gunplay. The characters, in fact, are so immune to the violence they do; so immune to the violent nature of their chosen profession; so accustomed to blood and death as everyday occurrences, that they gradually pull the audi-

some scene, we meet the thieves one by one, as they are interviewed by Joe for the job. We flash forward and back, looking at the plotting of the heist, several meetings between the assorted crooks, and other business between the eight men. It’s an odd way to construct a movie. The non-linear construction, though, serves to add a manic sense of disconnection to the action. Imagine, if you will, John Huston’s 7%.e AsphaItJungZe and Stanley Kubrick’s The Killing: both are jigsaw-puzzle intricate plots designed around the plotting, botched commission, and aftermath of “The Perfect Crime.”

Reservoir Dogs revolves around a diamond robbery staged by six thieves, none of whom know each other. To keep their relationship purely professional, the mastermind of the diamond heist has all the thieves call each other by assumed names - all colours. In this way, Mr White (Harvey Keitel), Mr. Pink (Steve Buscemi), Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen), Mr. Brown (Quentin T arintino), Mr. Blue (Eddie Bunker), and Mr. Orange (Tim Roth) cannot rat on any of the other thieves if they are caught and questioned. The cast is first rate. The actors, Keitel in particular, breathe real life into the swaggering thieves’ shotgun-quick repartee. The young Buscemi, late of the Coen Brothers’ masterpieces Barton Fink and Miller’s Crossing, is entirely believable as the criminal torn between his wish to trust the others, and his professionalism which tellshim not to. Michael Madsen gives the sextet its hard edge: his brand of casual psychopathic behaviour burns the image of criminals as sub-human torturers into the audience’s minds. British actor Tim Roth is superb as Mr. Orange. Roth brings humanity to the face of the criminal, as he ends

We then flash forward to lead thief Mr. White (Keitel) driving a shot and bloody Mr. Orange (Roth) to the appointed hideout, We gradually discover that the heist has not gone as planned - there have been several deaths, and a growing concern that one of the gang of robbers is actually an undercover cop.

While Huston and Kubrick decided to make the action linear, either film could just as easily have had the disconnected structure of Reservoir Dogs, and have been equally as effective. Tarantino drew on the complex narratives of both these movies, putting every character in conflict with every other character, added a fashionable ’90s blackness to the plot, and came out with a suitably nihilist version of everyman’s struggle with authority, loyalty, betrayal, and trust. In the end, though, we get neither Huston nor Kubrick, who used their intricate plots and odd narrative to prove the existential absurdity of “The Perfect Crime.” Instead, we get a black, cynical message that human nature will always, always, always utterly destroy the best laid plans. These thieves want badly to trust one another - trust, in fact, is the one thing that can save them. Ironically, it is the precise nature of their profession that makes trust unthinkable.
