When a longstanding publication such as The New York Times goes out of its way to make a sweeping claim about the state of the music industry, it often reads like a crotchety music man wagging his finger at millennials from the comfort of a velvet recliner chair. But an article published in March, “Why We’re Not Making Plans for Coachella and Bonnaroo” by Jon Caramanica, Ben Ratliff and Jon Pareles, caused many to pause and reconsider the value of the festivals they’ve held true to heart.

When it comes to getting between the sheets with a Badger babe, there are a few things we should know about the person we’re bangin’. We should know they want to fondle our goodies just as much as we want to fondle theirs, we should know what birth control or other safer sex methods we’ll be using and we should most definitely be aware of each other’s STI status.

As long as fashion trends have existed, there have been movements that took hold of the general public that are looked back upon with embarrassed laughter. Those who never partook in things like bell-bottoms and Ed Hardy smugly affirmed their biases against them when they fell from grace, and everyone moved on with their lives. Today, that stupid fashion trend is Birkenstock sandals, and I will be the one calling them for what they are—ugly, childish and highly overrated, to say the least. Let me take you on a journey where I describe what’s wrong with these overhyped crimes against humanity.

The UW-Madison campus, spanning more than 930 acres of land and several zip codes, is home to many places that act as epicenters of campus life while drawing students together with the local community. Between the two student unions, more than 40 libraries and countless other popular spots, student life centers around the signature places that make up campus.

“Hideaway” is an earworm, that song that gets stuck in your head. It also makes you want to dance every time you hear it, throwing caution and abandon to the wind, making you “Ohh” and “Ahh” so much that people quite seriously consider locking you away. That all happened to me when I first heard “Hideaway.” Amazingly though, as it does with most other catchy songs, it did not go away. Making her mark in Madison for the first time this Sunday at The Majestic, Kiesza, the stage name for Kiesa Rae Ellestad, holds the promise of one of the best shows in the city this year.

SING IT WITH ME: “When the weather outside is increasingly less frightful and you’re still a pyromaniac...” as the old spring-beckoning song goes, it’s often time we find ourselves a mate! Sometimes it’s the slightly above-zero temperatures and sometimes it’s that lull in the middle of the semester when we’re up 15 pounds, but whatever the case may be, it seems more couples pop up in the spring semester than any other time of year.

A new era of college football is finally upon us. Last night, the selection committee handed down its rankings from on high. Now, instead of complaining between who’s No. 2 and No. 3 we can complain about who’s No. 4 and No. 5. In a way, there’s a new paradigm in college football and, in another way, nothing has changed a bit.

There’s no telling exactly what you’ll experience if you come out to see the Meat Puppets perform at the High Noon Saloon this Wednesday, Oct. 22 with tour-mate Cass McCombs. In fact, they don’t even know themselves. “I think we’re gonna wait until we get to the venue, and then put some thought into it,” says guitarist, vocalist and primary songwriter Curt Kirkwood. “We got a few different ideas we’re messing around with. We brought acoustic guitars, we might try to hook that up. We’re just playing it by ear.”

To some, he is a middle-aged naked guy riding around on a motorized scooter wearing nothing but a thong and a cape, shocking the town and scaring children. To most Madisonians, however, he is a caped crusader, a naked knight, a scantily clad star. He is Thong Cape Scooter Man.

Wisdom can find you when you least expect it. As I was leaving the bathroom in City Bar one evening, I saw above me an apercu of most scintillating illumination, nestled between black and purple Sharpie curlicues on one of the ceiling beams: “Love is Fake.”

Call it a bounce-back week for the Big Ten, but then again every team showing up to the actual game could be considered a bounce-back after what happened the week before. Now let’s congratulate Indiana on an SEC win and point and laugh at Michigan.
