Skalcoholiks Stomper Bob

Originally named Bob Stomper and the 4 x 4's, this band has come to be known on campus as Stomper Bob. It was formed two years ago, when 1996 Notre Dame graduate Dave Daily - former drummer for the Big Earl Band - decided to start a band. The band has transformed over the years, said bass guitarist Matt Butte!, the only original band member still playing. This year it has evolved into more of a jazz emsemble. "Our music is a fusion of jump blues, jazz and funk," Butte! said. "We play both originals and jazz standards that we throw our own twist into." Stomper Bob also plays covers from newer bands and bands like Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. In addition to Butte!, the band contains members - Keith Syska on the alto saxophone, Andy Janisewski on the trombone, B Money as the lead guitarist, Meghan McCormack as lead vocals and Michael Hummer as percussionist. "This is the first show that Stomper Bob has played in a month, and it will be awesome," Butte! said. The band usually plays at the local bars, although they are working on campus promotions. They are excited about playing in NAZZ because this is their first appearance with Hummer. "We always thought NAZZ was cool, and it allows people to see a solid music scene," Butte! said.

Glass Eye Merchants is composed of live Keenan guys who share a common friendship and a similiar taste in music. Their name evolved from a combination of Keenan Revue skits and their sense of humor. "We are just a bunch of wacky guys and the name sounded good," said Bill Briggs, acoustic guitarist for the band. They formed about six months ago, when they started playing at Acoustic Cafe. The band is composed of Briggs, Ben Stauffer on acoustic guitar and back-up vocals. Brent Moberg as lead vocals, Tim Rosa as second lead vocals and Joe llauser as bass guitarist. They play mostly cover songs right now, such as music from Ben Folds Five and Bare Naked Ladies, although they are working on some originals as well. They have performed at Acoustic Cafe and in Keenan's basement ,and are scheduled to play at Dalloway's Coffee House in a few weeks. They try to practice frequently, according to Briggs. "Once a day we all sit in my room and jam. We play for whoever is around. We are really a fun, happy band." Their goal for the weekend is quite simple. "If we can make two people smile. that's why we are playing," Briggs said.

"''d seen [NAZZJ last year and it was pretty cool. It's a good place to play." In December, 1997, two former members of Stamper Bob and two former members of Tashi Station decided to collaborate and form a new band. The only thing they needed was a name. Sitting around at Mickey's Pub, the four band members were stumped until a stranger named Humphries McGee sat down to help them think. When the guy left, they had their name- Umphrey's McGee. Combining originals and covers in a jam-oriented style, Umphrey's McGee has practiced daily since then and has per­ formed at Madison St. Oyster Bar and Mickey's Pub. They will also perform at the State Theater on March 28. The quartet consists of guitarist Brenden Bayliss, keyboardist Joel Cummins. percussionist Michael Mirra and bassist Ryan Stasik. Their performance at NAZZ will consist of original songs, showcasing their blend of jazz, Latino and traditional rock sounds. They try to always please their fans and audience members and look forward to performing for an underage audience tonight. "We want to let people see us who aren't 21," Stasik said.
