By Alyson Brodsy · Thursday, Oct. 16,2003 1:21 a.m.

By Tony Sams · Thursday, Oct. 16,2003 1:08 a.m.

OK, I admit in hindsight there were a few (20 or 30) times a few weeks ago when I really should have just swallowed my pride, gotten over my fears and gone to the IU Health Center. I had what appeared to be a cold or a dead fish caught in my sinus cavity or something. I don't really know. I get sick easily in autumn, because I have seasonal allergies and the actual germs sneak into me.

Many bands still Young at heart

By -Val Tsoutsouris · Thursday, Oct. 16,2003 12 a.m.

Maybe it's just natural to see things through the prism that you want to see. If the only band one has ever heard is the Beatles, then a lot of what one listens to thereafter will sound inferior.

The Fire Theft keeps it Real

By C. Warner Sills and Brian Reid · Thursday, Oct. 16,2003 12 a.m.

Anyone who claims to be an underground music fan from the mid-'90s until the present is likely to have heard of Sunny Day Real Estate.
