on students unhappy
with new parking lot

By Shaun Burns

Contributing [4 Win

Traffic has been light in
the parking lots surrounding
Commonwealth Stadium in
the past week. The long lines
of cars waiting for departing
students are gone.

Some attribute this to the
addition of the Lexington
Community College (2—6
commuter lot.

“For many years, employ-
ees and students of LCC have
come to me with their parking
problems,” said Don Thorn-
ton, director of Parking and
Transportation Services.
“They wanted to turn the
parking spaces between LCC
and the stadium into a coin-
muter parking lot for only
LCC students.

“but I think that I would have

similar to UK shows the school is
“quite lacking" in recreation facili»
ties and options for students.

The survey also indicates L‘K is
below average in seven of eight
indoor facility categories and in six
of nine outdoor facility ones.

“lt's‘ unbelievable how low we
rank," said Melanie (lruz, Student
(iovernmcnt Association president.

The report, prepared by (Zom<
mittee on the Adequacy of Recre—
ational Facilities. concluded that
L'K's recreation facilities have
diminished rather than expanded in
the last 25 years.

Rather than improve facilities,
the University has torn them down
or converted them into other build-
ings. Examples include the Euclid
Avenue intramural fields, which
were turned into a parking lot, and

Ledford, a business manage-
ment sophomore at LCC. “l
drove around for 15 minutes
in K-lot. l found one today, I
was lucky."

Thornton said he believes
the pricing is not only fair, but
necessary for the welfare of
the institution.

“The parking fees are no
more expensive than other
UK commuter parkin lots,”
he said. “The permit fiees are
not only for parking, they also
include transportation in the

The committee also concluded
that the hours ofopcration for most
of the facilities are “far below an
accept-able standard for meeting the
needs of thc liniversity communie

For instance. the Seatoii (iciitcr
is the only recreational complex on
campus.

But it doesn't only exist for stu-

“This is all we have." said com—
mittee chairman Bill Pieratt, direc-
tor ofCaiupus Recreation.

“.-\dditional and/or new facilities
would be the only apparent solution
in to avoid the shared and over—
crowded conditions that now exist."
the report said.

" \ new facility should be avail-

The major problem with the
development of a recreation facility
is the expense, because (iampus
Recreation receives no money from
student tuition. \\'ith a new rccrc—
ation facility comes an increase in
tuition.

Thc (iampus Recreation budget
for this school year is 5401.406,
according to the report. The aver-age
budget for comparable schools is
more than $2 million.

“lt is disappointing that the

Although a new recreation facility

bass lines and sporadic backup
screams is present throughout the
heavier songs on the album.

The opening track, “Pure,“
demonstrates this method perfect~
ly. The song begins with bassist
Darrell Hyde and drummer Matt
Krupanski leading into the ardent
vocals of Gray. The music then
comes full force as guitarists
Chad lstvan and Joshua l.atsha\v
join in.

Near the end of
the song the music
becomes soft and
creates the feeling
of a machine
building up steam.
At the height of
the build-up,

Boys Sets l’irc does
not follow the typical
formula, as they slim
things down at crucial points in
the album, dis )laying a more
melodic side. T e band success—
fully delivers a stylistic change
without losing one ounce of cmo»
tion or direction. 111 fact. it is the
slower songs which reveal the
most about this band‘s integrity
and sincerity for their beliefs.

For example. “Swingset” and
“In Hope" are the most heartfelt
songs on the album. On both
these tracks (iray shows his talent

he can do a lot more than most
hardcore vocalists who are limited
to screaming.

“Swingset,” a song about the
horrors of child abuse, is mellow.
soft and peaceful, yet it fits with
the rest of the record due to its
emotional honesty.

“in Hope." another song deaf

"The Day the Sun \\'ent Out"

By Adam Little

Picture, ifyou will, the sound ofa band that
is a cross between Tool, Rage Against the
Machine. 311 and Parliament Funkadelic.
Pretty Cool, huh? (hed) pe, a band that hails
from Orange County Calif, is rumored to be
venturing to the Lex—
ington area.

From slow melodic
tunes to screaming
profanity over hard
)ower chords, this
hand offers an original
twist to many well-
known ty es of music
combine . You’ve had
funk, punk and even
P-funk. Now get your
(l-punkl

The ban consists of
.\1.C.U.l). screaming
aggressive vocals,
VVesstyle on roaring
guitars, Chizad also on
guitar and vocals,
Mawk playing bass, and in the turntables is D]
Product. The talents of these men combined
make for a sound and feel that are definitely
not for the weak at heart. In other words, do
not listen to this grou ) ifyou are easily offend-
ed. They call their style “Punk llop."

The message conveyed in the songs of(hcd)
seems to be of a mentality of an aggressive
individual.

The group reminds me of something

IIED 0F "IE CLASS [in] (pr) brings its. own IllliI/Ilt’ xiv/c ofmuric in its later! release. The (.illiforniii

[Wilt] trill lie inn/ring m any to Kentucky 5mm time in the iicni'fiitlirc,

Michael Douglas would have sung in the
movie Fill/mg Dutz‘n. They say things we all
think but rarely actually say.

For example. a verse off the group's self—
titled and latest album goes as follows, “You
must be confused if you think l give a "
\"ell, you know the rest. This aggressive tone
remains static throughout the album.

A variety of subject matter ranges through
the entire array of songs. From politics to peo—
ple and things that really piss them off, an
almost humorous blimtness is illustrated in
each song.

.\‘l.C.L'.l). (who looks mysteriously like Ice
T) has a hip hop rap/hard-core metal sounding
voice that compliment the thrashing guitars,
severe drutn riffs and samples from the turn
tables.

At first. the songs put you at ease with a

slow but catchy feel to them. This is immcdi~
ately followed by loud thrashing guitars and
screaming of aggressive words. This actually
makes for an interesting combination that
sounds surprising good.

()n the \\'est Coast, the group has created
quite a following.

Mostly surfers and skater pack clubs to see
their favorite band play.

This comes as no surprise because of the
massive stereotypes that most surfers and
skaters listen to either hip hop or hard metal.
The band seems to have found a happy median
between Cypress l [ill and .\1egadcath.

(bed) is making a rim for the Past Coast:
playing shows in Arkansas and soon to be in
Kentucky.

If you get the chance to see them. 1 highly
recommend you do.
