There was a moment in Talib Kweli's much-hyped performance at Hunter where he paused to let the crowd recite his lyrics for him. His gesture left most of the crowd confused over the words to Kanye West's verse on "Get'm High," and left the rest of the crowd in silence, since they simply didn't know the words.

Real musicians use toy guitars. Or at least they do now.
Video games Rock Band, developed by Harmonix Music Systems, and Guitar Hero, formerly of Harmonix and now Neversoft, have become a mainstay of today's music culture. Using plastic guitars in Guitar Hero as well as plastic drum kits and a microphone in Rock Band, players young and old have caught onto the phenomenon and, in their own way, exposed themselves to the lives of rock stars.

Its 85 degrees out, humid, your air conditioner broke and you are sticking to your parent's black, leather couch with a dusty fan's breeze-and with no job in sight. Bring on summer '08! But there is hope: three authors sat down with The Envoy to talk about their successful careers, their books and why they could help you off the couch and into an office.

As the semester dwindles down to a flurry of hasty goodbyes and off-the-cuff final papers, we of the arts and living section of the Massachusetts Daily Collegian are thinking ahead to the grand beyond. Summer, with its infinite possibilities, doesn't just provide the chance to gorge on Dad's burnt barbeque and PBR-fueled beach bonfires - it's also home to the season film fans of all ages look forward to most.

With cloudy skies, cooler temperatures than we have seen this spring and a chance of rain, this past Saturday was probably not the ideal day to spend 12 hours standing outside, but that's exactly what I did. I went to the Bamboozle concert this past Saturday and although hectic and exhausting, it was an amazing concert and I really enjoyed myself.

Here's the scene: It's approaching midnight on a Friday. You go to the University of Massachusetts, so naturally you're probably engaging in some questionable activities, with or without friends. You're mellowing out, watching the tube, when suddenly - a wretched sound is unearthed from the inner depths of your stomach, a sound capable of converting even the most passionate atheist into a God-fearing churchgoer.

With the joys of summer come the most anticipated blockbusters of the year. Although summer is the ideal time to sit outside and catch some rays, everyone needs something to occupy their time on a cool summer night or a rainy day.

It had the makings of a great album. With three of the hottest acts in music (Pharrell, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake) on board for Madonna's latest project, how could it go wrong? But the new album by Madonna is not just a let down for fans, it's a let down for the entire music industry.

When graduating, it is hard to find one song to entirely encapsulate all the memories and moments here at the University of Connecticut. There is no tune that can fully recreate the moments in the dining hall, the cheers at Gampel, or the nights out with friends.
