Rock On: August 2006
http://ahay85.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 27, 2006. Though our younger years are long gone many of us can still remember the fantasies we had as children. Many of us wanted to be sports heroes and some of us actors. And then others wanted to be rockstars. But a local band can spend years just trying to develop a fan base and release a recording. Without any label support for marketing or financial backing the brunt of the responsibility lies on the shoulders of those that are also in charge of creating the music. Free inte...With ...

Rock On: December 2006
http://ahay85.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 03, 2006. When you’re on your own, it never feels like there is enough time or money to get the job done properly. In a month I will be heading into the Pus Cavern. For 8 days of recording, but even these daily 10 hour sessions don’t seem like ample time. We will be recording 11 songs with 2 guitars, bass, drums, vocals, and some electronic instrumentation. On the first day of recording, a band must first set up all of the equipment and get all the necessary microphones. In this portion ...

http://stephdominguez.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Tucson: Bar None If You're Under Twenty-One. Here is a guide and critique of Tucson's college bar scene. Sunday, September 24, 2006. Bison Witches: you don't need to understand the name to enjoy the game. Bison Witches Bar and Deli. Those lucky enough to snatch a table can order their drinks from their friendly, outgoing server. On Thursday nights, the servers seem to be equally as social as the drunken students they serve. Because of the daily specials, many students find themselves starting the...Frida...

Rock On: November 2006
http://ahay85.blogspot.com/2006_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 26, 2006. For many people music is a way to pass the time, a background noise that accompanies a car ride, or a radio buzzing away at work. For others it is a hobby; a fiddling with a guitar or an ingrained habit of tapping one’s fingers on a countertop. For the rest it is a way of life. Ars and conversing with his buddies that make their way in after work or while on lunch break while classic rock and blues music fills out the relaxed environment. Or adjust the action. Despite what some...

Tucson: Bar None If You're Under Twenty-One. Here is a guide and critique of Tucson's college bar scene. Monday, August 28, 2006. EmBARking on the New World of Twenty-One-dom. It has been exactly 28 days since I've joined the world known as "21-dom." As a college student, drinking is not an activity set aside for the elite; however, the world of the bars is unique in all aspects. I never had a fake ID like many students I know, so my twenty-first birthday was definitely a new experience. The Arizona Dail...

Sunday, September 24, 2006. Burn, Burn, Burn. In a time of advanced computer technology, most of us have access to a CD burner. Although many still routinely purchase albums from record stores, many more have turned to their computers to make their own discs. Using common software, one can make their own mix CDs or make exact copies of any record in a collection. That will be sent to record labels. At Oasis typically runs around $1,400 for 1,000 jewel case CDs with 4 panel inserts. On the contrary, t...

Tucson Film Scene: September 2006
http://stephaniebjoyce.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
UA Graduate Talks About the Local Film Scene.and Beyond. Wednesday, September 20, 2006. As headshots and resumes overflow my email inbox, my dining room table, and my mailbox for my current short film project, I thought to myself, "how did I get so successful in getting the resources I need to be a big time short film producer in Tucson? And then I would think to myself, "My preconditioned training in communication has taught me to acknowledge that you meant to ask me, 'what time is it? I realize now tha...

Rock On: October 2006
http://ahay85.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 29, 2006. As I watched the U of A battle of the bands last week I was reminded of the hard luck that one encounters as a member of a local band. Just as the second band took the stage, the Arizona sky decided to let loose. As an owner of musical equipment, I instantly thought of the damage that the rain could cause to the band's instruments and amplifiers. A guitar half stack. Can cost a few thousand dollars and a drum set is no drop in the bucket either. Sunday, October 22, 2006. The U o...

UA Graduate Talks About the Local Film Scene.and Beyond. Monday, November 27, 2006. Catscan Journalists on the Border. Posted by Stephanie Joyce at 6:55 PM. Monday, November 20, 2006. Carmen Mercer, Vice President of the Minutemen. When I visited the newly erected wall in the border town of Naco, AZ, my classmates Aaron, Erin, Mike, and myself had the chance to meet Carmen Mercer, who started the minuteman project with President Chris Simcox five years ago. What is your background? Building a Border in N...
