©lff lailg ®ar Uwl Dive in ... to get out of studying BY JORDAN LAWRENCE MORE POWER FOR THE WITCHING HOUR Feeling a bit stressed with exams? Bummed because most of your friends have already gone home and there’s nothing to do? Man, do I know the feeling. Exam week is no fun. There’s 10 million tons of work to do, and when there’s actual down time to have fun, there’s nothing going on. I know, it’s rough. But luckily, I know a fantastic way to distract yourself from this horrible plight. Sure, most students at UNC are aware of the reputation this town has for producing great and influ ential independent music. But if you’re like many of my friends, you might not have gotten out and experienced for yourself all the musical wonders Chapel Hill can provide. I understand how it goes. You might have wanted to go out to a show, but all your buddies wanted to go to a party or some other typical college activity. Believe me l’ve been there. But exam week could be a per fect opportunity to get out and find out what the Triangle scene is all about. Let’s be honest you’ll prob ably be sitting in your room between exams with nothing to do at some point. Why not wrangle up one or two people in the same situation and head out to a show? So here are four great local acts you should get out to see this weekend if you get the chance: Red Collar, just about the best live rock act in the Triangle right now, will bring its punk influenced and adrenaline-filled anthems to Cat’s Cradle tonight in support of Hot Rod Circuit, cur rently on its farewell tour. Nathan Asher and the Infantry also will be playing tonight The ®typ Smltj ®ar Heri PROFESSIONAL AND BUSINESS STAFF Business and Advertising: Kevin Schwartz, drector/general manager; Megan McGinity, advertising director,'lisa Reid*, business manager, Maura Feil, retail sales manager, Kale Polichnowski, assistant business manager.
