14—The Daily Collegian Monday, Oct. 27. IDB6 Spikers' scrimmage a success By DAVE SOTTILE Collegian Sports Writer The men’s volleyball team got its new season under way Friday night as the spikers held their annual Blue- White scrimmage at Rec Hall. The White squad, led by Head Coach Tom Toit, captured a 3-1 victory over the Blue, coached by Assistant Coach Eric Shope. Tait mixed the lineups, using differ ent combinations in each of the four games to allow the team to get com fortable with each other as it pre pares for a mid-November clash with perennial power, USC. The scrimmage saw just one in jury, as Keith Yarros suffered a sprained right ankle in the second game and was helped off the floor. According to Tait, Yarros, a junior, should be fine and is not, expected to miss the Nov. 15-16 clash with the Trojans.

As we prepare for USC the timing between them will come along.” According to Gaspar, playing to gether as a team in Rec Hall for the first time since the NCAA Final Four Championships last spring meant a great deal. “Playing against ourselves isn’t like playing against another team,” Chase said. “I’m sure we’ll be work ing on our intensity starting at prac $285/montl P.M.. cable, dishwasher, microwave, WO rk WANTED.

Still, “Bombs” was one of the Balls’ more interesting tunes a ghost story of a song which became a nightmarish clash of musical noise. , Perhaps the highlight of the Balls’ set was their fast, ripping version of Hendrix’s “Fire,” a tune I have often heard covered ... but never like this. be remembered that only after si lence, comes that which is closest to expressing the inexpressable mu sic. One of the best ways to enjoy this concert was to close your eyes and just listen, because if you constantly watched the stage you became dis tracted by the contrasting •movements of the players and their instruments. Canadian violinist Peter Oundijian was like a tidal wave among choppy waters. The precise movements of the group’s three Japa nese members violinist Kikuei Guitarist Maglio burned up his instru ment, playing so fast that his fingers blurred. He picked a few riffs with his teeth and still kept true to the notes and timing. Cheap showmanship, maybe, but impressive nonetheless! The Balls also covered the Replace ments’ “Favorite Thing,” and ended Tokyo String Quartet Ikeda, violist Kazuhide Isomura and cellist Sadao Harada were more refined compared to Oundijian’s. But these movements became ir relevant as the music of Mozart filled Schwab Auditorium. The composi tion, sometimes called The Hunt, was brilliantly performed by the quartet, their sound being extremely clear and exact. The first and last movements of the piece, both played allegro, were playful in a style en tirely Mozart. By using expert vibrato, the quar tet made the third movement, their set with a Hendrix-inspired rocker called “Shade.” The group seemed stronger on the cover songs, but its music was good, strong rock’n’roll all the way. The Feelies featured songs from their recently released second album, The Good Earth, in their perfor- “Adagio,” sound like a sweet, melan choly ballad. The performers’ deli cate touch proved that music does not have to be played loud to be exciting. There is something about Soviet music that has haunting undertones, as exemplified by the second piece on the program, Dmitry Shostakovich’s Quartet No. 7 in F -sharp Minor, Op. 108. The composition brought out each instrument’s unique character istics instead of blending their sounds together, as in the Mozart piece. At first, some parts of this piece sounded harsh and grating, but then the instrument’s voices came togeth er, and the sheer endurance of the players was fascinating. Although this piece had three movements, there was no pause between sections. Keeping the emphasis on the senses, it is interesting to note that the last piece the quartet performed was written by a completely deaf Ludwig van Beethoven at the height of his musical career. Beethoven’s contrasting ideas and the compli cated variations on a theme in the “Grosse Fuge” and “Large Fugue,” indicated the master at work and gave the quartet a chance to display their independent playing. The musi cians’ give and take in the extreme dynamics of the piece created a swelling sense of line. Although more music followed, the end of the “Cavatina” section would have satisfied as a finale, as the adagio molto expressivo faded beau tifully into silence. mance Friday night. The five-mem ber band features Brenda Sauter on bass, Stan Demeski and Dave Weck erman on percussion, Bill Million on guitar and Glenn Mercer on guitar and lead vocals. The Feelies, in contrast with the jovial Balls, took up their instru ments wordlessly and maintained silence through most of their set. The group opened with a ballad-like, folky rock tune, “On the Roof,” followed by "The High Road.” Both songs were home-grown, American folkish rock, reminding me of wheat fields or some other kind of midwestern scene. "Original Love” was a more haunt ing, darkly melodic tune, which gave me an intensely creepy feeling. Here Mercer’s voice reminded me most strongly of Lou Reed’s. The group’s cover of the Beatles’ “She Said, She Said,” was a slick version of the original, with a ma chine-gun drum line and a little bit of psychedelia in the ending. By the fifth Feelies song, I knew I was in trouble. AIL around me the audience was having a great time, cheering and applauding enthusiasti cally. I, however, found myself won dering, “is that all there is?” The band members stood on stage woodenly, not smiling or recognizing the audience, not speaking at all. A trivial complaint, really; some groups don’t like to banter. Well, all right, but I still felt like some spark or energy was missing. The Feelies are good musicians, they play well and tightly. Their music is not in any way bad. But it is much the same thing again and again, and after a while I grew uninterested. Still, I tried to keep an open mind. The group’s “Two Rooms” was a haunting, introspective song, fol lowed by “Slipping into Something,” which changed tempo abruptly from lazy ballad to frenzied guitar mad ness. Again, Mercer’s Lou Reed qual The Daily Collegian Monday, Oct. 27, 1986 ities came out. Along with “Original Love,” these songs were the most interesting. The two percussionists provided a steady, in-synch beat throughout “Last Roundup,” which sounded like a twisted Western ballad. Demcski and Weckerman used a variety of instruments, including drums, tam bourine and a hollow wooden instru ment of some kind, providing interesting rhythm through the set. A song called “Crazy Rhythms” reminded me strangely of a song called “Summer In the City,” by the Lovin’ Spoonful. It was a roughed-up, ragged, helter-skelter kind of tune. The Feelies ended the set with that song, abandoned their instruments and escaped off-stage to the back balcony of the ballroom. The audi ence would not let the band get away that easily, however, and soon the Feelies were back, performing “I’m a Believer” and “Sedan Delivery.” Again the quintet vacated the stage, and again the audience de manded more. The Feelies returned a final time to play a medley of Velvet Underground tunes, “Run Run Run,” “European Son” and “What Goes On.” I don’t know what I was expecting that made me feel so much like the concert was a disappointment. Part of it was the homogeneity of much of the Feelies’ music, part of it was my perception that the group lacked en ergy and spirit. I overheard someone say that the group has often been compared, unfairly, to R.E.M., but one of the first things I thought was, “they remind me of R.E.M.” The Feelies arc not bad musicians, and they certainly were popular with the audience. The concert was well performed, but the music often seemed mediocre to me. All I can say is: different strokes for different folks.
