  • 2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6
    2008 Erik Axel Karlfeldt Memorial Open Round 6 1. One instance of this type of event which involved Matt Prater decided the 2005 Aloha Bowl between Nevada and UCF. In 2004, a game-deciding instance of this by Ryan Gaudet was nullified by a penalty, one week after Alexis Serna did it three times against Gaudet’s team. LSU won both those games, defeating Auburn and Oregon State. Perhaps more famously, a Jerome Pathon touchdown, scored after laterals from Donte Stallworth and Deuce McAllister, was made meaningless when John Carney did this, giving a 20-19 victory to the Jaguars over the Saints. FTP, name this rare football feat, which results in only six points being awarded for a touchdown. ANSWER: missed extra point (accept equivalents; do not accept “blocked extra points”) 2. A rapper of this name put out such tracks as “Murder Makes Mo Mail” on his 1996 album De Vallejo. The title of a recent book on American culture by R. Jay Magill, Jr. refers to this kind of chic bitterness. Better known is a song of this name, which was sandwiched between two songs by Oasis as a Billboard number one single. That song details the flight of “Mr. Play it Safe” and remarks that “life has a funny way of sneaking up on you.” It speaks of such events as a “Black fly in your chardonnay” and a “No smoking sign on your cigarette break,” which are erroneously said to exemplify the title concept. FTP, name this Alanis Morissette song that complains of occurrences such as “rain on your wedding day.” ANSWER: “Ironic” 3.

  • Sebadoh (US), Legendarerna, Till Norden
    2008-02-06 17:08 CET Sebadoh (US), legendarerna, till Norden Sebadoh (US) 1 maj - Köpenhamn, Pumpehuset 2 maj - Stockholm, Debaser Medis/Svenska Musikklubben 3 maj - Malmö, KB Sebadoh är bandet med stamina utöver det vanliga, ett band som upplevt allt från kasettbandspelaren till boomblastern, cd-walkmanen och nu slutligen i-poden. Allt började way back i tiden, redan 1983, när Eric Gaffney gång på gång sprang på Lou Barlow på diverse hardcore-spelningar. Först tre år senare, 1986, bytte dom kassettband med varandras musik, och bestämde sig för att göra ett par gig ihop och kanske nån inspelning. Lou jobbade då för fullt med ett annat projekt, som så småningom skulle få namnet Dinosaur Jr. I januari 1987 gjorde Eric och Lou ett par spelningar på diverse universitet, Eric på sång och Lou på ukulele. Dom släppte också sin första kassett ihop under namnet Sebadoh, ett nonsensord som Lou ofta brukade mumla under deras inspelningar och rep. 1988 hade duon med ett par låtar på The Freed Man- kasetten, som så småningom gavs ut som album på bolaget Homestead Records. Jason Loewenstein, den tredje bandmedlemmen i Sebadohs orginalsettning, blev involverad efter att Eric som var värd på den lokala studentradiostationen kommenterat ljudkvaliteten på ett av demobanden som kommit in, en demokasett som råkade vara en inspelning med Jasons dåvarande band, Dissident Voices. Jason ringde upp och ville ta ett snack med Eric, det visade sig att dom kom bra överens och ett år senare kom det sig så att Jason, Eric och Lou hade sitt första rep ihop. 1991 släpptes singeln ”Gimme Indie Rock” där Jason också var med och spelade.
