Said Toddlesome, " Why can't I just be back in Texas?" Then... WEEK A RUT Monday Forget about the friends I don't have. Drink some instant water. Pink Floyd does ItBBQ style-Pigs on Twisted Offer BBQ Pig Keep an eye open for "Pigs on the Wing," because Pink Floyd is coming to Guilford College. Pink Floyd is generally regarded as one of the world's most success ful recording units. Among their most loved, best selling albums are: The Dark Side of The Moon, (1973) Wish You Were Here, (1975) The Wall, (1979) and A Momentary Lapse of Reason (1987.) The seminal British concept rock band will bring its "Division Bell" tour, which opens March 30 at Joe Robbie Stadium in Miami, to Armfield Athletic Center on Fri day, April 10, as the headlining band of the school's annual rites of spring, Tom Foolery (formerly Serendipity.) The show is slated to begin just after sunset and should last well into the evening. Pink Floyd is known for opulent stage productions and the band promises that this performance will be no exception. Expect state of-the-art quadrophonic sound, giant, inflatable props including the group's infamous flying pig and more lasers than the Starship Ik i ■* Toddlesome finds consolation with his female companions. "I just love the benefits of losing an election. Texas may have a lot to offer, but it can't compare to these little ladies here." Toddlesome plans to run again next year; he can't wait until the results come in. Tuesday Keep looking for things to keep my mind off not having anything to do Wednesday Play some Chess against myself. Keep letting me win. Thursday Watch C-Span. Enterprise. The show will include perfor mances of The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall in their en tirety, a selection of highlights from other albums, and songs from the group's new LP, The Division Bell, slated for release April 5. "We're really going to try to pull out all of the stops for this one. It's not every day you get a gig like this. In the 25 plus years I've been in the band we've never played a show like this. It should really be quite magical. Having Roger back for this one should be a big boost as well." said band member David Gilmour. Pink Floyd usually consists of Gilmour, (guitar and vocals,) Ri chard Wright, (keyboards and vo cals) and Nick Mason (drums.) However, in a surprise move, es tranged bassist and songwriter, Roger Waters has agreed to rejoin the band for this show only. Waters said,"l still despise David, but when I heard they were playing at Guilford I decided to let bygones be bygones for one night." Student reaction to announce ment of the craning show was ec static. Residents of Binford Hall have organized to paint the build- Friday Play Chess against myself some more.

A giant pyramid bearing the band logo will be built in the grassy area between Milner and Bryan, although controversy has enipted over the exact design of the pyramid because of its reli gious connotations. One student expressed his and everyone else's sentiments per fectly by saying, "Dude!!! It's Floyd!!!!!" Also slated to appear at Tom Foolery are R.E.M.(touring for the first time since their 1988 "Green" tour), the reformed Led Zeppelin, (with Jason Bonham on drums) U2 (in an intimate acoustic perfor mance minus their Zoo TV trap pings), and the ghost of Jimi Hendrix. Tom Foolery committee mem ber, Mutt Rudinaka, who deserves much of the credit for bringing these bands to Guilford said, "Overall, I'm pretty happy. We've got a really tight budget this year, so I couldn't really bring the bands here that I wanted. When Dillon Fence and the Sex Police priced themselves out of our range I was kind of worried. Fortunately, I was able to find some pretty decent quality second-stringers." gprit 1,1994 SEENIT NONESSENTIALS CoMI'II I I) BY MAS( () I noi'i I i'i Yo Mama After much controversy over whether the Guilford Fighting Quaker is appropriate for the school, the decision has been made in Seenit to change the mascot. Although no concrete deci sions have been made, there have been many suggestions as to possible new mascots. One idea, proposed by Becky Givesome(trees a chance), was to immortalize the trees that are to be sacrificed for the Sequensential Garden, and have the new mascot be the "Guilford Trees that We Just Won't Let Die." I'll Jump Through Hoopes(to get people to work) thought that it should just be the Guilford Non-Denominationalists, say ing "it's not a yin-yang, it is a meandering walkway!" Some students struggled with the idea of being the "Fighting Quakers" because they believed it to be an oxy moron. To correct the dilemma, two possibilities have been considered: becoming the "Lovable Bunny Rabbits" or to loose the Quaker traditions and become the "Mean and Nasty Fighting T-Rexes With Blood Dripping From Our Teeth." Some students said that to find the moron, you should just go to see their advisor. There have been two self nominations in the competition by Brian Burden and Scott Spagnola. Burden exclaimed to Senate that he wanted to be the new mascot, saying "use me, use me, use me" and he would be "Anti-Apathetic Guilford Student." Spagnola suggested that the mascot be "PC-Man", then promptly volunteered for the job. Other suggestions include becoming the "Ever Changing Administrators," or, to reflect our high turn over rate in Sen ate members, new students and officials, we could just have a new mascot every week. The suggestion has also been made that if Guilford really wants to intimidate our rivals, we can just show them the caf food and how it is prepared. Suggestions are welcome, and can be addressed to Dan Potweet at a Forum (date to be rescheduled due to poor atten dance).
