Q And Not U...with a Pinch of Pepper
Back in the Fall of 2005 I had the opporunity to see Q And Not U play their final show at the Black Cat. Below is a blog I originally posted on MySpace about the events that occured that night. It's pretty funny, so read on and have a laugh on me.
Renovations at MCN (An Intimate Post)
Greetings!
My name is George, and I'm the Assistant Producer here at Mason Cable Network. Here's the rundown of what you should expect to see (and if you don't, send all complaints to mcn@gmu.edu ... haha)

More flyers and randomness with our marketing team will get the students more aware of Mason Cable Network ("Who are you, and why is that camera in my face?") and our affiliates at Connect2Mason (You rock!)
What Is The Enclosed Instruction Book?
The Enclosed Instruction Book exists under the guise of a new wave and local artist show. In truth, that is exactly what it is; the secret lies in the nature of that music. New Wave was a broad label placed on numerous diverse artists from Yellow Magic Orchestra to Divinyls to Wreckless Eric to the B-52s. New Wave, however unintentionally, united punk, synthpop, post-punk, and even bossa nova under one flag; after the excess of Disco and the pop giants of the late 70s, a reversion to creating music without instructions.
Why is George Mason refusing to give credit where credit is due?
My mother and several folks she personally knows have finished their masters degree requirements, and George Mason University (GMU) is now refusing to give these folks their degrees and teaching certifications. In addition, GMU is refusing any attempt at communication to resolve this problem. This has been going on for a while, and I want to let students out there know that there is no guarantee that when they finish their study requirements, they will receive their degrees despite what their counselors say.
