Lincoln's Pershing Auditorium
will rock tonight with two bands
in concert. Billy Satellite rolb into
town from Tulsa to open the
show for West Coast-based
Jefferson Starship.
The Satellite band, formed five
years ago, has since been teething
on the Bay Area circuit. Last year
they landed a recording contract
with Capitol Records and now
are touring nationally.
The four-member band is billed
as having been nurtured on old
school blues and is reputed to
give a high-energy show.
The main attraction is Jefferson
Starship. With a history as ex
tensive as theirs, some limitations
must be put on what to play. So
don't expect to hear timeless
Airplane or older Starship songs.
And don't expect to see Airplane
co-founder Paul Kantner either
he is no longer a Starship

The University of Nebraska
State Museum wMl be the host of
a free seminar on "The Scientist
as Artist" Saturday at 9 a,ra.
Jon Nelson, curator of the
Giristlieb Collection of Western
Art, said the $15 fee announced
earlier, which included a
Pershing
member.
What you can expect is a heavy
dose of music from the Nuclear
Furniture album and an overview
of songs dating back to the 1979
Freedom at Point Zero LP. That
was the album on which singer
Mickey Thomas, who is still with
the band, made his Starship debut.
Grace Slick, a living legend and
a driving force on Nuclear Fur
niture, also will perform. Her
distinctive vocals and slick (no
pun intended) timing add a sense
of nostalgia to th! Starship "fam
ily effort" record. If Slick is up to
par, the audience should expect
song styles ranging from Islamic
type chatter to soulful Native
American tempos.
With a little effort, Starship's
unique harmonies and direc
tional transitions will weave a
sequence of images and cerebral
sensations for the Lincoln crowd.
Fans only can hope the quality of
Starship live is as tight and evenly
alanced as their most recent
Z'iJcZY.
