Music: Jedi Mind Tricks
produce controversial tracks
Continued from page 7
“Shadows.” Two songs to avoid are
“Aquarium Man” and “Galactic.”
For chill and pleasant beats tied
in with loud, powerful and contro
versial lyrics, check out “Legacy of
Blood,” the third album from the
Philadelphia-bred underground rap
duo Jedi Mind TYicks.
In an album that focuses on reli
gion, violence and the like, Jedi
Mind TVicks offers more for a listener
to contemplate than just the redun
dant hoes, cars and money, which
are the relevant topics in today’s ur
ban music scene.
With Wu-Tang Clan as their
biggest influence, the duo, which
consists of Vinnie Paz and Stoupe,
provides 19 tracks of hard-core rap
with a hint of turntablism.
While most of the album’s tracks
flow smoothly and appeal to the ear,
the ones that especially stand out
are “On the Eve of War” (featuring
GZA), “Saviourself” (featuring Kil
lah Priest) and “The Worst.”

Lovelies: Indie band known
as 'best kept secret in rock'
Continued from page 6
“We’re not looking to become
superstars,” Wooten said. “We just
want to be able to do this for a liv
ing for as long as we can. Keep on
making music that we believe in,
and as long as we don’t have to
hem in our sound to please anyone
else, I think we’ll be happy.”
As will fans. This indie band has
a heavy following and has even
been called the “best-kept secret in
rock-and-roll” by MP3.com music
director Rod Underhill. With more
than 110,000 downloads from MP3
radio for a song entitled “Ceiling,”
the Bloody Lovelies have proved
they’re here to stay.
Throughout the tour they’ve had
some crazy experiences and
learned some valuable lessons.
“Eric learned the hard way not to
share political views during an elec
tion year,” Wooten said. “He almost
got his ass kicked in Wyoming.”
And although they’ve traveled all
over the country, Wooten said their
favorite show has been one played
in L.A.
“All of your friends coming to
the show and singing along,
knowing all of the lyrics. It’sgreat,”
Wooten said.
The Bloody Lovelies will be per
forming at the Samurai Duck on
Oak Street today at 10 p.m. This
will be the first performance in Eu
gene for the L.A.-based band and
the musicians’ hopes are high.
“I hear that it’s great,” Wooten
said. "Everyone has really positive
things to say about it.”

How to Throw a Responsible Party
Information for students hosting parties: The ASUO, Department of Public Safety, Eugene Police
Department, and University of Oregon Office of Student Life have developed these ten steps to help
you have a successful party in campus neighborhoods.
im
1. Invite your friends. Make sure you control the guest invitations so you don't find yourself with 300 people showing up, saying they have been invited
by someone who was invited by someone you invited. Don't put up fliers, poster, etc. about your party. A moderate-sized party is one at which you
can have fun. A party that grows out of control is one where you will spend all your time dealing with problems instead of socializing and having a
good time yourself.
2. Keep the planned size of your party in line with the size and capability of your facility, including bathroom facilities. Remember that your party cannot
use your neighbors' yards or city streets.
3. Find ways to celebrate that do not involve alcohol. If you choose to serve alcohol,
ensure that you are only serving to people 21 years of age or older.
4. Determine who will be the party's designated non-drinking monitor; those persons
can do a lot to keep things under control and should be the ones to interact with
the police if they get called to your party.
5. Remember that if you host a party that gets out of control, you may be legally
liable for criminal and civil action or restitution for police and other city services.
6. Remember that if you host a party, you are legally liable if persons under 21 drink
alcohol or if someone drinks until they are intoxicated.
7. Control access to your party. Have a door monitor with specific instructions about
whom to admit. Don't let random people into your house who are walking around
looking for a party.
8. Notify your neighbors of your party plans. Let them know what you plan in terms
of size, hours, music, etc. Tell them they can contact you if they have problems
created by your party.
9. There are several circumstances that will draw attention to your party:
a. Loud noise.
b. Admitting people under 21 years old.
c. Letting people carry beverages outside from your party.
10. Be cooperative with neighbors, police, or other concerned persons who come to
you during the party to discuss a problem. Being cooperative will keep the
problem from escalating to a higher level response (e.g., an arrest!).

11 .Your neighbors may be more tolerant of your next party if you clean up promptly
after your party. Clean up all debris your guests have carried outside and left in your yard, in other people's yards, or in the street.
