Lafayette Food Co-Op Interview

At the first Farmers’ Market of the year, May 1st, we ran into some of the people doing surveys and interviews about starting a Lafayette Food Co-Op. We decided to do an interview ourselves. We talked to Cody, who is leading the way with this project.

It turns out there used to be one here for thirty years that finally died in the mid-90s. It’s time to bring this idea back to downtown Lafayette. If anyone has a inexpensive place that would need a little fixing up, please contact them!

Danny Weiss playing at the Farmer's Market

The first audio piece put online that we recorded with our new Zoom H2 Handy Recorder. Let us know what you think.

This audio was taken on May 10th, at the Farmers Market, located on 5th Street in downtown Lafayette. We have Danny Weiss playing the saxophone, and entertaining the crowd early morning shoppers. Also, this is just a sample. There will be more!

You can hear the Danny Weiss Trio every Thursday night at the Black Sparrow from 10PM – 1AM.

The song is Jerome Kern’s All the Things You Are. Thanks for the update Danny!

Punk Rock Show at Zoolegers

The Media Collective attended a great show at Zoolegers Night Club on February 22nd, 2008. The lineup was Drum Kit, The Coathangers, and Moto.

Here is a recording of each set. It should be noted that they were recorded with our Olympus WS300M–not exactly perfect for music, but it is small and gets the job done. Plus it is all we had on us.

As with all music, these sound better when running through an equalized MP3 player. Enjoy and support these musicians!

Drum Kit – 19:34

News Channel Internet – Life Chain Interviews

1 Comment

Something else finally broke in the Chauncey area. This time with a political and religious bent. Luckily The Media Collective was there to cover it.

Perhaps you have seen the people standing along State Road 26 holding signs in protest of abortion. Maybe you tried to engage them in conversation. Maybe some of you yelled your own slogans from your cars. We went out and asked them Who-What-Where-When-Why-How.
