3 Doors Down’s Greg Upchurch means business
during live performances.

3 doors down from the past

·

In light of their past success, 3 Doors Down show that they are back once again with a nwe self titled release that has already proven to be successful on the radio.


Bassist Mike Dirnt makes a change of pace with his role in Foxboro Hot Tubs.

Green Day stops, drops and rocks you

·

Most of the tracks on Stop see the members of Green Day attempting to escape the sound they made on American Idiot. There’s not a lot of soaring hooks here, but instead they’re replaced with a visceral garage rock sound that actually fits the band really well.



A zombie state trooper: a minor's worst nightmare.

Zombie gold

·

It’s been 40 years since George A. Romero unleashed “Night of the Living Dead,” and it’s only grown in cult status. Although this latest film might not be as earth shattering as “Night,” it still proves that he operates on a higher level of filmmaking than most horror directors.

The Roots represented hip-hop at this year's Summer Camp Festival.

Wet hot American Summer Camp Festival

·

In its eighth run, Summer Camp expanded to more than just a venue for 21st-century hippies and jam bands. Artists ranged from hip-hop to afrobeat to bluegrass, while an undertone of political and environmental awareness filled the park.

Only online

·

In honor of Memorial Day, the IDS is not in print, so the content is only online. I don’t really like this. I know that today is supposed to be about the heroes who defend our country and not about myself or whatever, but I am kind of vain and get a really big kick out of seeing my picture in the paper, cutting my columns out and giving them to my mom who laminates them.

Peace is possible

·

In my lifetime, most of the new states that have come into existence have been the culmination of long-differed dreams. Timor-Leste was the first new state of this millennium, but it would have seen independence much sooner had it not been annexed by Indonesia after the Portuguese left. Kosovo, the most recent addition to the international community, was born out of ethnic conflict that has rocked the Balkans since the early nineties

The most dangerous "–ism"

·

I’ve always been skeptical of –isms. Communism, capitalism, and totalitarianism – they’re big, they’re threatening and they affect our daily lives. But what I’ve come to realize is that there is one –ism that is more treacherous than the others combined: journalism.

Bond, James Bond

·

The New York Times, that beacon of cutting-edge journalism and cultural exploration, surprised me this week with its scathing portrait of the late novelist Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond 007, who would have turned 100 this month.

Memorial Day a time of rememberance

·

This holiday weekend is one of remembrance, as well as a reason for families all across the country to get together to share love and memories of the past in honor of their lost family members.

Welcome to Indiana University! I hope your experience in Bloomington will be as exciting and rewarding as it has been for my family and I since coming to IU in April.
