Dicky Barrett, lead singer of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, rocks the crowd at The Hurricane
Sunday night.
Mighty moshin’ shakes the ‘Cane
By Joel Strauch
Senior Reporter
Plaid is back and with it comes The
Mighty Mighty Bosstoncs. Hailing
from Boston, Mass., The Bosstones
arc acrowd-interactive band that plays
an intense combination of heavy metal
and danceablc ska.
The Bosstones nine-member band
shook the eye of The Hurricane Sun
day night. The brass sounds of the two
saxes and trombone meshed well with
the heavier riffs from the guitars and
slammin’ percussion.
The crowd was almost as involved
as The Bosstones backup vocalist and
dancer Ben Carr. Carr was continually
throwing himself into the sea of wait
ing hands and crowd-surfing back to
the stage between bouts of his knees
up dancing that clashed well with the
i
band’s ska sounds.
Preceded by Kansas City’s Weaker
Youth Ensemble, a hip-hop/thrash band
marked by its accordion-1 ike keyboard
ing, and The Bosstoncs’ own opener
Black Train Jack, the show was ofT
car’ to an insane start.
ce The Bosstoncs took the stage,
after a cavalry charge and a somber
entrance, the crowd went insane. Stage
diving and crowd-surfing were the
audiences members’ ways of showing
their cult-like devotion. The mosh pit
that filled the first 50 feet of the audi
ence swelled and swayed and didn’t
break until after the band’s third en
core.
The band played songs off of their
debut album “Devil’s Night Out” and
their latest LP, “More Noise and Other
Disturbances.” Lead singer Dicky
Barrett’s audience interaction set the
tone for members of the crowd singing
segments of songs and dancing on the
stage.
The Bosstoncs have a reputation
for trusting their audiences and appar
ently it is well-founded.
“There was lots of stage-diving by
the crowd and the band and for some
reason, no one got hurt,” Bubba said.
“It was a very safe performance.”
Even though the Hurricane was
shaking with all the people, Bubba, the
sound man for The Hurricane, was a
little disappointed with the turnout.
“We were hoping for more,” he
said. “But it was pretty good for a
younger crowd setting.”
“The Bosstoncs contract required
an all-ages show, so we had to make do
with sell ing pop and herbal tea,” Bubba
said. “But it was a great performance;
they had a really energetic set.”

‘Godfather’ writes memoirs
NEW YORK (APy—The God
father has written his memoirs.
Actor Marlon Brando says he’s
always considered his life a“private
affair,” but he’s penned “Brando:
Songs My Mother Taught Me” so
his children can separate the truth
from the myths about him.
The book is being published by
Random House, Harold Evans, pres
ident and publisher of the Random
House Adult Trade Group, said
Monday. It was written in collabo
ration with Robert Lindsey, a former
New York Times correspondent who
also aided President Reagan on his
autobiography.
“Brando” is due in stores Sept. 7.
“Except for moral and political
issues that aroused in me a desire to
speak out, I have done my utmost
throughout my life, for the sake of
my children and myself, to remain
silent,” Brando said in a statement.
“But now, in my seventieth year,
I have dec ided to tell the story of my
1 ife as best I can, so that my children
can separate the truth from the myths
that others have created about me,
as myths arc created by everyone
swept up in the turbulent and dis
torting maelstrom of celebrity in
our time.”
Brando has won Academy
Awards as Terry Malloy in 1954’s
“On the Waterfront” and as the title
role in 1972’s “The Godfather.”
