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.

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.

"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."
