Do the Dü

By -Val Tsoutsouris · Thursday, June 27,2002 3:52 p.m.

Hüsker Dü was a Minneapolis rock band whose name came from a Scandinavian board game meaning, "Do You Remember?" Well, no one who has ever listened to Hüsker Dü has ever forgotten.

All of these can be found at Nick's English Hut on any given day.

Spacey's latest old 'News'

By Amy Oringer and Amy Orringer · Thursday, June 27,2002 3:39 p.m.

It is a shame that this movie dropped off the radar of many moviegoers this year. "The Shipping News" received several Oscar nominations, despite its lower profile on movie screens across the country. But after watching the DVD, I can understand why people didn't get too excited over the concept of this film.

Psychedelic soul music

By Michael Tapscott · Thursday, June 27,2002 2:17 p.m.

It is often suggested that soul music cannot be faked, that any hint of discomfort or mortality will show through. While the theory holds quite a bit of water, it is also true that with the carelessness that such talent can afford you comes meticulous craftsmanship.

I'm not a freak, I just 'Crush' a lot

By Frank Valish · Thursday, June 27,2002 2:11 p.m.

In a perfect world, Velvet Crush would be pop rock heroes. Since the early '90s, Paul Chastain and Ric Menck have been consistently releasing songs filled with glorious melodies, jangly guitars and drop-dead-gorgeous harmonies.

Disappointment in Aboriginal oddity

By -Mitchell Tellstrom · Thursday, June 27,2002 1:51 p.m.

Prog rock veteran and experienced experimenter, Peter Gabriel is back with a new album, Long Walk Home: Music from Rabbit-Proof Fence, a soundtrack to the Australian film The "Rabbit-Proof Fence." The liner notes read, 'Rabbit-Proof Fence' is the true story of Molly Craig, one of Australia\'s 'Stolen Generation.' Molly…and her sister and cousin had been taken fifteen hundred miles from their home and family to one of the government institutions that had been established to train Aboriginal children as domestic workers for white society. Molly led the girls in an escape. Pursued by trackers, they succeeded in finding the rabbit-proof fence that Molly knew would lead them all the way across Australia's outback to their home."

Disney's latest will leave you in 'Stitch'es'

By Brian Haney · Thursday, June 27,2002 12:56 p.m.

I will try not to use the word cute to describe this movie, but truthfully there probably isn't any other way to describe it. Charming, delightfully refreshing and surprisingly funny, this animated adventure is prefect for kids and parents alike. Echoing a similar masterpiece, this "E.T."-esque film bonds a misunderstood Hawaiian girl named Lilo with her new dog and best friend, Stitch, a genetically created destructive alien. These two unlikely characters are both lost and alone, and ultimately form the prefect duo. Their ensuing tale fills theaters with a wholesome mix of laughter and "awww's."

Barefoot and starry-eyed

By Yahya Chami · Thursday, June 27,2002 12:40 p.m.

Nostalgia can be a powerful force. It can be so great it causes a band of musicians to forgo most of their creative right, and try their best to remain within the lines of a famous blueprint.

Latest war puzzle doesn't really fit

By Natalie A. Trout · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

As the title indicates, this film was definitely baffling. The story was interesting, but pushed too far for a movie based on reality. The acting was superb, but the inaccuracies were abundant. Even a few days after seeing "Enigma," I'm not quite sure how much I'm willing to forgive.

By -Alec Toombs · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

On Universal Truths and Cycles, Guided by Voices' 13th album in twelve years (three of which were live), the band returns to its former label, Matador, and to its stripped-down and far more experimental sound.

Hype kills Spielberg's sci-fi 'Report'

By -Alec Toombs · Thursday, June 27,2002 12 a.m.

Many critics have hailed Steven Spielberg's latest opus, "Minority Report" as his finest piece of action celluloid since "Raiders of the Lost Ark." First off, the flick isn't action oriented -- it's much more like a sci-fi tinged film noir. Secondly, "the Beard" has churned out better works in wake of his 1981 juggernaut -- both "Indiana Jones" sequels, "Jurassic Park" and "Saving Private Ryan" are all far superior to this "Report."
