You’re Listening to WRVU Nashville
Nov. 20, 2011—Hey there Nashville. It is 9 o’clock pm and you are now listening to 91 Across on WRVU Nashville. This is DJ Una with DJ Emily also in the house and we’re going to start you off this week with….
A Few Sour Chords on a Thursday Night
Nov. 18, 2011—It’s 2:48 A.M. on the Thursday night (Friday morning?) before Thanksgiving Break. I don’t have class tomorrow, so I am up watching movies and fiddling around on the internet.

I Love Variations
Nov. 2, 2011—You know when you’re just having a rough week and all you need is a little break to renew your spirits? I found my secret weapon for getting through a busy schedule.

Predators, Concerts, and Majors. Oh my!

The class, Business of Music, meets once a week, and could not be taught by somebody more qualified or more distinguished. At the young age of 89,...
Home for the Weekend: Lotus Festival
Oct. 5, 2011—This weekend marked my first and only trip back home (the wonderful Bloomington, IN) until the end of the semester. And what a great weekend it was: international music, dancing, and home-cooked meals! Oh my!
A Super Stressful Wednesday
Oct. 5, 2011—For some odd reason homework, meetings, more meetings, and class seem to have gotten together to perform a sneak attack on my sanity and sleep schedule today. Looking back though, it was quite a productive 16 hours!
Soundland 2011
Sep. 24, 2011—One of my biggest regrets from last year was not breaking the “Vanderbubble” enough and, specifically, not seeing many concerts.
The National Folk Festival
Sep. 4, 2011—This weekend was the 73rd National Folk Festival, and my friends and I went not once, but twice. The (FREE) event was downtown on the Bicentennial Capitol Mall, next to the farmers market. I haven’t spent much time in this area of Nashville, so this festival was a great opportunity to get off campus. The...
