A friend of ours informed us that a local noise band, Cro Magnon (Lafayette, IN), played on WFMU’s Talks Cheap with Jason Sigal.

While going on a bike ride around campus, we came across this group practicing between the Stewart Center and the Purdue Memorial Union.
We captured a time lapse video of their performance and put the first song to the video.
If you want to hear all of the audio I recorded (a little over 4 minutes), check it out here:

Percussive Purdue (04-18-2009)

We attended the three pillars of comedy put on by the Purdue improv group, The Crazy Monkeys. The night consisted of three different types of comedy: short form, long form, and sketch. The Ship of Fools, The Crazy Monkeys, and the University tWits performed each of these styles respectively.
We recorded the introduction to night given by Shauvon at Hot Box Pizza, followed by Andrew’s warm-up of the crowd before the Ship of Fools came out on stage.

Before the third installment of this great event started, I managed to snag an interview with Logan Lampton, a member of the Crazy Monkeys. We talked about the night, how he become a member, and the process of animating imaginary people.

We recently placed a call to the East Fayayaette Public Library while they were closed. Listen to their voicemail greeting here.

What’s up with that? A show not hosted by Ryan Hill. The music included in this show was Go n’ Drop from the album Jazz U by Antony Raijekov and Mind Mapping from the album Thread Soul by Revolution Void. Always great, free music at Jamendo.com
Well. Another year has ended. Another season has ended. We actually had all of our shows edited and up before the year end this time. w00t!
This season was highly political due to the looming election at the time. Hopefully this audio will act as a time capsule for some of the attitudes, views, and thoughts that were held by the members of the Purdue community.
This year’s season ender includes clips from each episode and a little bit of rambling. The spin is that we removed our question prior to their answer. See if you can guess which questions we asked to elicit their illicit responses. 😉
If you talked to us this season, thank you! If you answered questions this season, a big thank you! If you made fun of us for wearing hats and gloves when it wasn’t cold out, we thank you as well! We appreciate any and all participation. We’ll see you next year the Friday before the 2009 classes.
