BRYCE ALTHOUSE Senior Entertainment Editor When Tom Hanks said (as Forrest Gump), “Life is like a box of chocolates ... you never know what you’re gonna get,” he must have been thinking about Creature. In fact, the only thing you can expect from Montreal’s own indie- funk-pop-rock outfit is the unexpected. And so that theme carried into their headlining perfor- mance at the Nest’s first Indie Night on Sept. 11. Every- thing was unexpected. From a sound man that had to take a trip to the ER, to late arrivals, to no opening act, to a much delayed concert start time, no one was quite sure what to expect when Creature did take the stage. The result was impressive and an excellent way to kick off their cross- Canada tour. From the moment that front-woman/keyboardist extraordi- naire CowBella took the stage, she captivated the audience and started a dance floor frenzy that did not fizzle out until seconds after their closing song. With tracks like the ’70’s funk-esque Who’s Hot, Who’s Not, to ’80’s new wave-ish Don’t be Afraid, to the almost Planet of the Apes inspired Last Days of America, to my favourite unreleased-and-coming-up-next album track titled Bitch in White Leather, (which is apparently inspired by a crush shared on one woman by the entire band) it’s not sur- prising that people just aren’t able to sit still.

I say I thought it was a documentary because once I started watching it, I realized that no “serious” documentary maker would include a song that takes McCain’s words and connects them together for what will soon be a great hit called “Bomb Iran.” The DVD, which was a joint project by Brave New Films, ColorofChange.org, Democracy for America, the National Organi- zation for Women and VoteVets.org, was put out by The Disinformation Company. The Real McCain – Less Jobs More Wars isn’t a documentary at all. It’s more of a politi- cal satire with a compilation of some of the many great short films about McCain circulat- ing on the Internet. While the DVD does have its comedic moments, it also does a fantastic job of show- ing some of McCain’s political inconsisten- cies. I will say though, every speaker that appeared on the film seemed to be strategi- cally placed in front of a bookcase.

Here Are Five Reasons to Consider Getting Involved In The Senate or for voting in the Senate Election: Vote Thursday, Sept. 25, 2008 1. EXPERIENCE: If elected, you’d be a voting member of the NAITSA Senate, which is the 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. “governing body” for a multi-million dollar organization. No matter what career path you choose, being a board member is a valuable experience. Aside from the first-hand knowledge of how meetings are conducted, participation on the Senate will develop skills POLL STATION LOCATIONS: such as accountability, decision-making, communication, teamwork and many more. • South Lobby 2.

5. YOUR RESUME: It’s a safe bet that you want a good job when you leave NAIT. Most students don’t realize how employers make hiring decisions. Here’s a hint: Two NAIT grads Watch for the September 25th issue of the Nugget for … same diploma … same grades … but one was a “Senate Representative” for the School of Business.

So If I Am Interested, How Do I Get Elected? Sept. 25, 2008!

1. GET NOMINATED: You only need 10 students from programs in your “School” to nominate you. Nomination forms are available at the NAITSA office (E131). 2.

Take the completed form to the Students’ Association office in Room E131 on Main Classifieds Campus before the deadline. 3. START CAMPAIGNING: It’s easier to get votes than you might think.
