MERMAIDS from Page 6
In contrast is Slilwcll’s project, so
fresh from the laboratory that the
print is barely dry. It is hard to de
scribe; except that it is very warped.
Sul well may need some professional
counseling, but he has produced a
great short bit of cinema. It’s almost
as slick as Boles’ film (former UNL
student Rick Oldcrbak was StilwcH’s
cameraman), although much less in
nocent and more, well, indescrib
able. Both films should be seen.
Ro/.cma has described “Mer
maids”as “completely, and not at all,
autobiographical.” Sec if you can
spot your own biography in it, I know
they’ve been watching me.

Missouri band, California piano man
perform at the Zoo Bar this week
By Ken Havlat
Staff Reporter
Two eccentrics, D.J. Leibowitz
and B.C.R., will perform at the Zoo
Bar Friday and Saturday nights.
B.C.R., from Kansas City, Mo.,
has been building up a solid regional
following among college radio sta
tions with its debut LP, “What Earth
Are We On.” The LP, recorded by
Fifth St. Records, captures the es
sence of the band. The seven-piece
group plays a style of music incor
porating African, reggae, R&B and
soul. The music can captivate the
soul of anyone listening. The band
plays a style of music that doesn’t
allow time for sitting down and
soaking up the music.
Pianist D.J. Leibowitz from
Berkeley, Calif., uses music from
the Dead Kennedys, Ramones and
Bob Dylan to create his own unique
brand of music. While he could be
hailed as the Eugene Chadboume of
the West Coast, he proves he is
consistently provocative on his LP.
Bill Dye of B.C.R. said they are
hoping to work a few of each other’s
ideas on stage as the evening pro
gresses.
The shows will begin after 9 p.m.
both nights, with a $3 cover charge.
The Zoo Bar is at 136 N. 14th St.
