...Music Seen Archived News: If You're Hip,
You Already Know This Stuff...


Whew. It's been a busy week. Good thing it is practically over, yay!
We shot three bands last week-
can joann
bazungu
tad dreis
and all the shoots went quite well. Look for them to air before long.

We have two produced videos in various planning stages. If your band wants to do a produced video, email me very soon!

STV turns 20 on October 6th. We are all stoked about it and have planned a whole day's worth of festivities for Saturday October 4th:
12:45 - Meet at studio to go to game
6:00 - Meet at studio for dinner @ Breadman's
9:00 - Party
Directions: Get on Franklin St headed towards Carrboro. Stay on it until it turns into Main St. At the stop light where you see Wendy's, turn left(Greensboro St). Drive under the overpass(Greensboro st turn into Smith Level rd). The house is on the left side of the street, directly across from Carramore, a building that looks like a church. It is the light blue one between the two red brick houses. 601 Smith Level Rd 919-942-7071

Join in any and all of the excitement! Or at least wish us happy birthday.

Episode 5 is in final editing. I swear. It will be beaming to your homes within days.

OOh! And the Johnson St/Music Seen house is looking for a roommate. We have a temporary guy named Greg who is awesome, but he is going to leave. And it's lonely with no one across the hall. You can walk to campus! Or bike. Or bus. We have a fern and sometimes tofutti cuties. Call 414-8246 or email huxhold@email.unc.edu

LCOME BACK!

Thanks to Allyson, Danyele and Craig for leading us through such an awesome year!

Matt and I are really looking forward to working with you.
Please use Sarah's email address, huxhold@email.unc.edu, to contact The Music Seen. Allyson loves us and will come play with us some, but she has moved on to postgraduation-real life-type things. Email Sarah! Say hi! You can even call her Pippi (if you want.)

Come out to STV's general interest meeting next Wednesday, September 3. Help us look cool and convince people to join us.

Other than that, We have tons of great footage that should be edited shortly, and keep your eyes open, Episode 5: Ryan Rubio Rocks should appear before you even know it.

Episode 3: The Green Episode (live) is now airring!
A lot of work has been done to the website, thanks to Danyele. You can now watch our videos online!

Or, if you'd rather get trashed than stare at a computer screen, come to the next Music Seen party!
It will be on Feb. 22 (Sat), and not only will you be able to hang out with us and millions of other kids who like to rock, but you can also make your appearance in a Music Seen music video! That's b/c we're having a shoot for a scene that takes place at a party at the same time. Oh we are so coordinated. So come get drunk and get video taped! (Or come stay straightedge and sing along to Mr Big).

Oh and back to the website: something you may or may not notice, but we have now added a news section that you can check obsessively to get find out weather updates and get the scoop on what's hot and happening with the show.

That's all I have for now, you crazy kids, but remember, we are code orange right now so buy some damn duct tape. It is the key to all survival.
