  • Local H PUTC Tour
    An evening with Local H — featuring a 20th anniversary performance of Pack Up The Cats in its entirety. In 1996 Local H released “As Good As Dead”, their most commercially successful record to date — but it was 1998’s album “Pack Up The Cats” that garnered the band universal acclaim and solidified the 2 piece rock band as one of the greats of the era. Local H has never stopped, making records and touring ever since, and this fall the band will commemorate the 20th anniversary of the release of “Pack Up The Cats” with a very special tour. This promises to be a unique experience for the audience as the band will be performing two sets of material—most importantly, one set devoted to recreating the album in its entirety with the help of some special guests including legendary Naked Raygun/PEGBOY guitarist John Haggerty. Local H, the iconic alt-rock duo known for their blistering live shows and pioneering the two- piece band set-up, is at the top of their game more than two decades after they first burst onto the music scene. Frontman Scott Lucas, who covers both guitar and bass (through an extra pick up in his guitar), and drummer Ryan Harding have enjoyed a resurgence in recent years, buoyed by global touring along with the release of some of their most critically acclaimed work to date. The last 12 months has seen the band continue to tour extensively not only as headliners, but on hugely successful tours with The Toadies and Helmet and —perhaps most exciting of all— career highlight performances on Metallica's sold out stadium tour.

The middle of the school year signifies two things: the end of first semester and the start of winter break. The long awaited break from mid-De- cember to mid-January is cherished among students from all over. The anticipation of see- ing family, old friends, and most of all, the time they don’t have to spend studying, is a thrill in and of itself. While some students have to travel very far to the place they call home, others are right around the corner. Jimmy Curtis, a junior, is especially eager to go home for the holidays. Unfortunately Curtis has to travel four hours to his home in upstate New York. “I like the journey home with my parents. It gives us ample time to reflect upon Christmases past and a chance to relish in all the festive glory while still imagin- ing the sweet taste of Figgie pudding on a cold winter’s day. It is a time when we can look for- ward to Christmas Eve at the Curtis residence with yuletide joy,” he said. When asked what his favorite part of break is, Curtis said, “Drinking hot cocoa while watching Christmas classics by the fireplace.” He went on to say, “I love watching the ornate- ly decorated Christmas tree twinkle with the promise of a bountiful new year.” PHOTO BY EMELY DELSANTO Continued on Page 6 Senior Maggie Mathews waits with a duffel bag as winter break - and the prospect of going home - quickly approaches.
