Sun, 27 Apr 2003 12:10:42 -0400 Author: Tad Dickens
So, you're the type to say, "Prom is such a drag." Well, maybe you're right. But here comes the Punk Rock Prom, whose organizers promise a looser event on Saturday, neither chaperoned by the teachers you've grown to hate nor filled with the sounds of music you despise. The music part may be a matter of opinion. Some posters on starcitypunk.com's message boards are questioning the credentials of something called a Punk Rock Prom that has no punk bands. The emo-word is being tossed around. - Actor David Huddleston interview for InsideOut/The Roanoke Times. (0mb)

Growing up in hip-hop's ground zero and once living a few blocks from Africa Bambaataa gives Jones the group's trump card, and he laughs that he's "the only one with any real street-cred." - The Big Lick Conspiracy Comedy Trio interview for InsideOut/The Roanoke Times.

Wed, 30 Mar 2005 12:15:05 -0400
The audience is a participant at Big Lick shows, and once, two of their suggestions for skits divided the crowd, Anderson said. At one show, an audience member shouted out "a sharpshooter" as a suggestion. Another shouted out "The White House." Half the audience was shocked, and the other half was cracking up, Anderson said. But Ruelle, the host/moderator, pulled it together by saying, "Well, in the interest of national security, can I get another suggestion?" - Musician Corey Hunley interview for InsideOut/The Roanoke Times. (0mb)
