Oregon Daily Emefald
Urge Overkill
brings their
funky brand of
entertainment to
the EMU
Ballroom
Monday.
Uncontrollable
Urge Overkill is not concerned
with the philosophical side of
MUSIC, THEY JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN
Thuru lire a! least iwo ways to do
everything
Some hands play ro. k 'o' roll and
want to ho artists Thoy art. serious and
self-important, melancholy and
thoughtful Thuy pi ts important songs
and thuy have grand Ideas and thus
spoilt lots of opinions it bout things,
although playing a guitar dons not non
ossanlv quality tli.mi to do any of this
Some hands play rink n’ roll like
Urge Overkill They think playing
music is a fantastic job Hig crowds
mean haying a great lime And other
people can worry about critics or the
industry or suffering and alienation
Some people s idea of catharsis is loud
music, good tunes and a reason to for
get about everything else for a few
hours.
Urge Overkill, which comes to the
KMU Ballroom on Monday for a con
i er! at H 00 p m , has few pretensions
toward idealism or philosophy The
hand blonds camp and irony while
grafting pop tunes with a l‘l‘l()s guitar
crunch.

For Tho Oregon Party Ftmrak)
Hollywood just can't seem to got enough of
Hugh Grant these days.
In his third film in about 0 months, Grant entic
ingly p!?vs a longtime British bachelor who, after
witnessing his innpiuC"!h wedding, begins to
question his single lifestyle Enter the always Hi;
able Andie McDowell, who pushes all the right
buttons and < auses the young bachelor further
discomfort over his womanizing ways
Situations crop up like an obstacle course dur
ing the film, which stand humorously in the way
of the couple's road to the altar.
