Lied Center 12th &R Open to the Public Without Charge I t ir\ Lied Continued from Page 9 “We wanted to make sure stu dents had the first announcement of series ticket sales,” she said. Lied’s primary target audiences are adults from 25 to 54 years old and UNL students, she said. The Lied Center tries each year to attract more students to the per formances, Clark said. “We try to stimulate the inter est level in freshmen and keep that level high during their time at the university,” Clark said. But last season, the Lied Center did not advertise to students very much, according to figures from Dan Shattil, general manager for the Daily Nebraskan. During the entire premier sea son, the Lied Center “spent an equivalent to what the University Program Council would spend (on advertising) for one major event,” Shattil said. “Series sales went so very well for the premier season,” Clark said, “that there were very few per formances we had to advertise for at all.” This season, single-event ticket sales were 55 percent higher for the first week of sales, Aug. 27-31, than for the first premier season sales week, Clark said. About 10,000 tickets were sold during the first week. It’s easier for most students to buy tickets for a single event, closer to the performance dale, Clark said, than to buy series tickets in advance. However, series ticket sales are down from last year, Clark said. More than 25,000 series tickets were sold for the premier season compared to about 24,500 for this season -- a decline of about 2 per cent. Students bought 7.5 percent of total series sales during the pre mier season, but figures are not available for the student percent age of this season’s total series ticket sales. Although the Lied box office has been “swamped with orders” since it opened on Aug. 27, tickets remain available for many of this season’s offerings, Clark said. Some performances are sold out, including “Cats,” and the Boys Choir of Harlem. “We tried to get such a variety and a good mix in this season’s program that there should be some thing to appeal to just about every body in Nebraska,” Clark said. “The more diversity, the better. We’re reaching out to people who are not normally art attenders.” EociTcity SATURDAY, OCT. 6 ELMS BALLROOM SYRACUSE (30 MILES EAST OF LINCOLN ON HIGHWAY 2) DOORS OPEN AT 8:00 ^UJ^mCOME^ Bobby Continued from Page 9 sweet vocals, crooned to the hilt on tracks like “Evcl Knivcl,” and the shmaltziest track on the tape, ‘ ‘She’s a Deceiver.” Of the two voices, Kennedy’s is less irritating. Of course, it’s not a good sign when the best compliment one can muster about a band is that one singer’s vocals aren’t quite as annoying as the other’s. A couple of the tunes, especially ‘‘Bitch From Hell,” are nicely pep pered with raunchy humor, but they’re not nearly enough to make Bobby Curious worth a listen. Rather, they seem simply to be throw -ins. It’s unclear exactly what Bobby Curious finds so appealing about this bygone sound, or why they’re so in tent on reviving it. After a very short while, they leave a residual taste in your mouth similar to that of prc chewed bubble gum. Then again, that may be one of the ingredients needed to make ‘‘The Lin coln Band.” a PRICE NEHOUR IGEMENTS ^ J5mm COLOR NEGATIVES ENDS 1IVSI/S0 W UR REPRINTS 1 ES TO VIDEO TAPE LOPING AND PRINTING I JUMBO PRINTS k iSSPORT PHOTOS A R PHOTOS A 1UM PLAZA ^A IT O STREETS IF YOU’VE GOT MONEY TO BURN, PONT BOTHER TO READ THIS But If You Need Extra Money!
