i
othing is sacred anymore in our MTV
world. Alternative music is no more.
Doc Marions can be found at Kmart.
Chelsea Clinton will profiahly show up with a
pierced nose. And now. the rave has come to
Eugene
The rave seemed to be one of the last bas
tions of the underground. People gather in an
unused warehouse or a building under con
struction to dance to the never-ending techno
beat.
Fueled bv the synthetic drug Ecstasy, they
stopped only to watch the sun rise.
Then it happened. The characters of "Bever
ly Hills 90210" went to a rave where Brendan
was slipped some Ecstasy (code name: Eupho
ria). and Brenda stepped on a hypodermic nee
die and wanted to leave.
Since then raves and rave music have been
featured in movies, cartoons, national maga
zines and television.
Be assured that E-ruption, as Saturday's rave
in Springfield was called, was no nightmare
for the roughly 400 rave-crazed attendees
While it did get off to a slow start due to tech
nical difficulties, the music quickly sped up to
140 boats per minute and got everyone jump
ing
The original rave began in England where
the admission price included a hit of Ecstasy,
commonly known as X. But Eugene is a differ
ent story. There were no drugs apparent
except for those in the legal smart drinks being
served.
Smart drinks, designed to boost one's energy
level naturally and without hallucinations, are
a part of the rave culture.
A flyer advertising the concoctions, which
are made front fruit and a powdered amino
acid product, said other affects may be
"increased attention span, mental clarity, and
sharper cognition "
It also warned that only healthy adults
should use smart drinks. Pregnant women and
anyone with Parkinson's disease, cancer or
hypertension should stay away.
Other products being sold were glow-in-the
dark Pinto clay necklaces and ravewear
designed by Steve Hubbard, organizer of the
event.

S Bounds
Modern dance, shadow play, illusion and assorted physical
highjinks describe most of what will he going on at the Hull
Center, where Momix will perform Feb. tl.
Artistic director Moses Pendleton, a ski champion gone modern
dancer, turns his knack for seeing fantasy in mundane objects into
sardonic and bizarre stage visions
Under Pendleton's leadership, the half-dozen classically trained
Momix dancers have earned a reputation for a special kind of imagi
nation. eroticism, irreverence and athletic prowess that brought the
house down at the Hult three years ago. Sometimes using props —
such as a sheet supported by stays that allow it to take the shape of a
tent, an Arabian veil or even a parachute — the dancers evolve in
movements that, through visual trickery, appear to stretch their bod
ies beyond natural bounds.
Almost all the pieces on Momix's menu ore co-choreographed by
Story by

College in 1971. But whurea* the

is not a bad thing, it simply means that these are fun dances with a
wacky sense of humor.
Using recorded music from a diverse range of composers, includ
ing Peter Gabriel and Igor Stravinsky, the dances are often |ust one
song long, bocause it doesn't take much longer than that to play out
the joke.
This time around. Mom lx'a untethered works return to Eugene in a
"greatest hits" program that includes their favorite crowd-pleasers as
well as a sampling of their newest creations.
“Spawning." a playful, dreamy dance with huge white helium bal
loons, shows that anything can happen when mischievous "prop
dancers” set out to amuse. In "Circle Walk." a dancer swings and
slithers through the graceful area of a gyroscope-like sculpture.
Meanwhile, two dancers on skis defy the Taws of gravity in “Skiva,"
and a couple of beauties on the half-shell get snapped up by a giant
dam in "Venus Envy."
Then delight reigns with the free-spirited antics of a Dapper Dan in
white suit and soft shoe in the piece called "Momix,” Pendleton’s
signature solo first performed at the 1980 Winter Olympics.
The art of Momix (derived from a trade name for a milk supple
ment that farm-brad Pendleton once fed to veal calves) shines on its
own. not necessarily trying to deliver any message, but rather con
veying the sheer delight of the soul.
Momix performs at the Silva Concert Hall Feb. 11 at 8 p.m. Tick
ets are $18 and SIS, with a $4 discount for students and children.
They are available at the Hult Center box office andThe EMU Main
Desk. And Feb. 10 Steven Chatfield of the University's dance depart
ment will talk about "The Surreal Playground of Momix" in the Hult
Center Lobby at Noon. There is no charge for the talk.
