Monday, February 7, 1983 11 Daily Nebraskan Local basnds Continued from Page 10 Twisted Justice, another relatively new group on the scene, is a hard, fast, rebel lious band which expresses a distaste for police brutality, fashion fads, and nuclear war. "Police Brutality," "Designer This, Designer That," "Rock and Roll is Dead" and "System" are the samples that Twisted Justice chose to represent themselves on this tape. Each of these songs seems to be domi nated by short, sassy guitar licks and back ed up by a powerful, quick beat from the drum. The members of Twisted Justice are Matt AJdrup on bass, Andy Stanley on guitar, Shaun Theye on drums, and Al Wilson on "screams." Rounding out side one is the song "Mc Carthy" by Pogrom. The cut is a bizarre one that starts out like a news broadcast denouncing the political system of our society. Side two continues with three more songs from Pogrom - "Kulterkampf," "Spontaneous Degeneration" and "Coeur D'Alene." This band has been together for about eight months and has gotten quite creative with its instrumentation. "Kul terkampf" is entirely instrumental with a significant emphasis on keyboards. Pogrom is comprised of Bill Bored on bass, Jim Jones on keyboards, Joel Lamson on keyboards and vocals, and Rob Riley on drums. Cartoon Pupils, a band of about nine months, adds a new dimension to the tape. In their first song "Anthem of Autumn," they combine some twangy, Tourists sounding guitar riffs with a flirtatious, distinctive drum. The other two songs,' "Humans" and "Foreign Pictures," are fast jammers with quite provocative lyrics. Cartoon Pupils is composed of Steve Canney on vocals, Harry Dingman on guitar, Bruce Stephen on drums, and Carl Stephen on bass. The final group, Holiday, is new, having only been together for about a month when this tape was made. Nonetheless, they're a tight band that seems to have a lot of potential. Holiday's three songs, "Letters to Mom," "Riding and Walking," and "Don't Say Goodnight" are all up-beat tunes with clear lyrics and complementary instrumentation that, at times, sounds a bit like the Pretenders, too. Holiday is composed of Paul Engel hard on drums, Matthew Rutledge on guitar, Britta Wheeler on vocals, and Doug Wolfe on bass. Given the right exposure, Holiday is sure to become a local favorite in the not-too-distant future. Rounding out side two of this tape is the song "It's a Secret," a kind of experi ment by The Click's Morris and Hugh Briton, calling themselves Kyoto Dun can. This guitar, keyboard and metronome composition comes off well. It is a plea sant, seducing song that is most enjoyable and should be about ten minutes longer. It is good to see a sample of Lincoln's new talent on the market and it is also good to know that there are bands making an effort to step away from standard rock V roll to try something new. For $3 you can own this tape and listen to what Lincoln has to offer musically. tepiired downing' leads to success of comedian, Eewin Clown, mime, and vaudevillian extra ordinaire Bill Irwin stars in his first tele vision special, "The Regard of Flight," at 8 p.m. tonight on the Great Perform ances series shown on Nebraska's public broadcast station, Channel 12. The program was taped live at Irwin's hit Broadway show at the American Palace Theatre. When Irwin won an Obie (the off Broadway equivalent of a Tony) for "in spired clowning" in 1981, he had already established a reputation among dance and theater circles- for his amusing performances. His successful engagement at the American Palace Theatre and subsequent appearance on television's "Saturday Night Live" have made the general public aware of his talents. Irwin's zany amalgam of sight gags, pratfalls and dance routines is accompanied by Doug Skinner's music. His clever script makes a shamble of" the avant-garde while celebrating all that is novel and exciting in today's theater.

Continued from Page 10 "That's the question we will be discus sing today on Donahue right after these important messages." "That's a doctor?" Nielsen said. "Don't worry," Spinoff said. "It's just a matter of time before the drugs wear off. You, not him." "So I'll be fine," Nielsen said. "But what's this about Antenna wanting to kill me?" Before Spinoff could answer, Dona hue approached the bed with the micro phone and held it to Nielsen's face. "Help me out here," Donahue said. "I'm having a little trouble understanding something. A man wanted to kill you as a protest against your television-viewing habits - am I right on that?" Spinoff, warily playing along with the doctor, said "If I may answer for Mr. Nielsen, Antenna meant to use Nielsen as a mouthpiece for the opinions of the Video Nostra. It turned out that the Video Nostra had no opinions about television, except that there was nothing good about it. So, in symbolic gesture toward that end, they were going to kill America's foremost television watcher. That would be Mr. Nielsen here." "OK," Donahue said, pulling the microphone back toward himself. He picked up the stethoscope and talked into the sensor. "We have a caller on the studio line," he said, backing away from the bed. '"So what happens now?" said Nielsen. "For right now, I guess you just stay here," Spinoff said. "Nobody knows you are here, and I signed you in as John Smith." "Think anybody will suspect a hoax?" "Who cares? Everybody on the admit tance report is listed as John Smith. The people who come here like their privacy." "What about you?" "You ask a lot of questions for some body who watches television all the time," she said, smiling. "One thing's for sure, I can't go back to the Video Nostra. Wouldn't want to. I was planning to sneak away long enough to watch "The Winds of War," and now I guess I'll just sneak away permanently." The doctor had disappeared, but Niel sen could still hear him interviewing ran dom patients in other rooms. He was feeling noticeably better. "Just one thing," he said to Spinoff. "Who won the Super Bowl?" "Didn't see it," Spinoff said. Nielsen slumped back into his pillow. "Godless communist."
