This year's homecoming parade went off without a hitch, as per usual. If there's one thing that struck me this year as opposed to others, it's that it is obvious to tell which organizations put a lot of time and work into their floats and which ones didn't.
The Blue & White Society's float is so big, it encompasses the world.
Or, at least, the theme does.
House shows are one of those unique musical experiences that change a person's perspective of live music. There's an intimacy about them that offers the crowd a sense of comfort and seems to bring the group closer together. Last night was no exception.
The minute Koji started to play for the small crowd gathered in 221 E. Park Ave, a silent calm seemed to settle over everyone present. It was a performance, but one in which the audience felt perfectly at home to chime in and add to the conversation.
