Tonight's W.C. Miller Collegiate Amnesty Coffeehouse, "Got Bread" (a fundraiser for the Rhineland Area Foodbank) featured the debut of a hot new multi-vocalist, multi-instrumentalist modern music ensemble known as "Scholars of Purple Kites". On this their first performance they decided to please to the crowd, playing covers of bands that they found inspiring: Scarborough Fair (Simon & Garfunkel), Dust in the Wind (Kansas), and "Fortunate Son" (CCR). There was also a spoken word, jazz fusion performance by two of the members. All in all it was a successful first outing. The guitar-playing sizzled. The vocal performances were awe-inspiring. The drumming fantastically foundational. We can only hope that this performance will not be the last!
Oh yeah. And there was this other band that played. Captain Bear. They were pretty good too.
(you know I mean that they were great, eh? you know? real great!)
