Rocky Horror: An Interactive Experience

David Tuohy

Arts & Features Associate

I went to the Rocky Horror Picture Show last Saturday night. It was performed on the Scripps steps (which, for the number of high heels involved, seemed like a rather curious location choice), but this one was 5-C student-produced. I never went to the RHPS at the broken-down theater in that questionable part of town back home. I was more into playing football and taking nerds’ lunch money from them. So this was a new experience. [con't]


Fashion Beatsters Say: Lanyards Are Cool!

Brendan Flynn & Scot F. Oxholm

Staff Writers

We’re back, baby! And you better have just double-snapped. We’re sexier, saucier, and sassier than ever, and you still all look like shit. Summer is just around the corner, and for many of you that will mean finally putting the socks away from your Stocks and socks collection. For others, it will not. [con't]


DJ Lyfestyle’s Top Hip-Hop Picks of the Year

Jay Marietta

I know you’re feeling it. We’re all feeling it. That tightness in your throat and chest. It creeps up just when you’ve managed to redirect your attention, momentarily enjoying a movie or concert.

It’s the end-of-semester stress, and it’s so much a part of life at Pomona that even TSL articles written about it are tired. Fortunately, I’m using that pervasive pressure only as a segue to some last issue wrap-up business. [con't]


The Bev-Niner Update

Nora Lawrence

A & F Associate

90210 after a Mickey’s Ice forty is still a good show. Were any of you aware that David and Dylan live together? Because I was totally confused. At the beginning, Geena is wildly hitting on David at the After Dark, and she was really drunk. I thought it was really weird that she would go to the club that her boyfriend owns right after breaking up with him, but she just freaks on in, runs up to David, who is talking to Dylan, and asks him to dance. The next morning, Geena is working in Matt’s office, and Kelly walks in. [con't]


Art Majors Show Their Stuff in Year-End Shows

Nora Lawrence

A & F Associate

Last weekend, art openings dominated my social life. I went to Pomona’s Junior Show at the PoSA Gallery on Thursday night, Scripps’ and CMC’s Senior Exhibition at Williamson Gallery on Friday night, and Pomona’s Senior Exhibition at Montgomery Gallery on Saturday night.

I didn’t go to the senior shows last year, and I was surprised to see what monumental events they both were. I was horribly underdressed for both, and, of course, totally embarrassed. [con't]


Fugazi's Instrument Captures More Than Music

Lindsey Valaine Briggs

Contributing Writer

Yeah, so I don’t go here anymore. I saw the Fugazi movie recently at the school I’m attending these days. Oh, things are good, thanks for asking. I’m fitting right in and I’m an English major now, so, you know, I can’t really complain. But I was talking about the Fugazi movie. I was privileged enough to be asked to a special illegal screening of Instrument, the aforementioned Fugazi movie, in the English building with all the "cool" kids - do I feel special? Yeah, I do. I really do. [con't]

Michael Lieberman ‘01 rocked with his guitar in the Coop on its closing night, Wednesday. Lieberman also played a fine, fine show at Scripps’s Motley. Lieberman hopes, someday, to be "a real musician," but for now, he’s just a plain old Pomona College sophomore.
