wine or water.
The Renaissance Festival is fit for
people of all ages. There’s a petting
zoo and medieval carnival rides for
the kids, while the adults have a pub
that features entertainment with adult
humor.
When you get tired of milling
through shops, you can take in a few
of the nearly four dozen shows. All of
the outdoor events feature family
entertainment in the form of comedy,
music, magic and drama. Nearly all
include audience participation.
The Society of Creative Anachro
nism gives weapons demonstrations,
with members competing in melees
and one-on-one combat.
Even walking through the streets
of the village can prove entertaining,
with its cast of jugglers, royalty,
bandits, town drunks and story tell
ers.
The Renaissance Festival is con
tinuing every weekend through Octo
ber 13. Since it’s well within road
trip distance, it’s an event that shouldn’t
be missed.

Vertigo's noisy pop to deafen Union
By Michael Stock
Senior Reporter
Don’t plan on studying in the
Nebraska Union on Saturday night.
With the likes of Fugazi, Vertigo,
Ritual Device and Sideshow playing
upstairs, the last thing on your mind
will be books.
Highlighting the show, with Fu
gazi in their premiere Lincoln per
-CODI^Sifc]—
formance, are noise-pop up-and
comers, Vertigo. Hailing from Min
neapolis, Vertigo promises to pro
vide music very different from the
Replacements/Soul Asylum power pop
that the Twin Cities have become
known for.
Power pop?
“I hate those terms,” said Jared
Aos, Vertigo’s master of guitar, bass
and vocals. “I think (the music is)
more powerful. But there’s still songs
with more melody. More energy. Less
poppy.”
For the last 3 1/2 years, Vertigo
has made enough noise for two sub
pop bands. Since their First, self-re
leased “Two Lives 7,” Vertigo has
been turning heads. The Ampheta
mine Reptile label executive heads
were twisted right off their necks.
The headless bunch signed the trio of
noisy guitars and healthy pop pinch to
record two singles and their self-titled
LP.
Vertigo is a bit different from many
of their Amphetamine Reptile label
mates. They are more than noise. The
pop is buried underneath more layers
of guitar than usual.
And Amphetamine doesn’t seem
to mind the pop hooks.
“There’s no pressure at all,” Aos
said. “We’re doing just what we want.”
Both Aos and band mate Gene
Tangren play guitar, bass and sing.
Aos and Tangren share the responsi
bilities of song-writing, playing and
singing while new drummer Bill
Beeman effectively thunders in the
background.
Half of the set is usually composed
of both Aos and Tangren playing guitar
with no bass, giving the band an en
tirely different sound.
“It’s kind of subtle. The melody is
there. Even the feedback is inten
tional,” Aos said.
What about the dancing girls?
“No. We’re pretty down on any
kind of gimmicks,” Aos said. “We
just get up there and play our asses
off.”
With a new album scheduled for a
January release, this Saturday’s Lin
coln appearance is only a precursor to
the future. A six-week European tour
is in the planning stages, slated for
early February, to be followed by a
six-week tour encompassing both
coasts.
Aos said that the band is looking
forward to a more extensive touring
schedule. x
“Touring is good for the band. Just
being together, the lifestyle . . . get
ting to know each other better,” he
said. “It becomes a lifestyle.”
Vertigo’s music means as many -
different things to the band
as to the listener.
“It’s music that makes us laugh
sometimes. It’s an emotional release.
A lot of the songs are therapeutic.
This is what we love to do... what we
love to play.”
The show, sponsored by the Uni
versity Program Council Concert and
Disco, starts at 7 p.m. in the union.
Tickets to see the four bands are $5 at
the door.
