UC Berkeley is home to a distinct breed of cigarette rollin’, mustache sportin’ cats who silently reek with that certain “Yeah, I’m in a band” quality. Greater yet is the population of guys at frat parties who, in the presence of women, strategically proclaim their membership in, you guessed it, “a band.” However, this news is for the smaller, probably subtler group of folk who are actually in bands: SUPERB concerts extends an unprecedented invitation to participate in a “Local Band Showcase,” with the campus as your stage!
SUPERB generally books artists to play on Lower Sproul Plaza on Fridays, both at noon and during the coveted 5-7 p.m. slot. You may remember such unforgettable performances as Immortal Technique, The Coup and Speechwriters LLC from last semester. While these artists traveled from far and wide to grace our Sprouly stage, SUPERB seems to have decided to embrace the “go local” mentality. What, with all this Panda Express, Tully’s, and Whole Foods nonsense, maybe a bit of local sonic flavor is exactly what we need. To apply for a spot in the showcase, shoot an e-mail to superbconcerts@gmail.com by Mar. 16 and stack some cred behind your “Yeah, I’m totally in a band” attitude.
