In Color & Cheers premier at U of U

In Color & Cheers premier at U of U

It’s that time of year again with the leaves changing colors, the smell of fall, and of course everyones favorite snowboard premiers. On September 16th Transworld premiered their movie In Color along with Peoples premier of Cheers. The crowd seemed to get bigger and bigger outside, mostly because of the free pizza and Monster energy drinks. Burton and Celtek also set up shop outside, Burton even had a little Airchair and push up contest for the kids to keep the in shape and get hooked up with some of this years Burton bindings and accessories. Once the doors opened people poured in the auditorium leaving no seat open and only standing room for the stragglers. The first movie was Transworld’s In Color, which is one of there best movie’s to date after that there was a small intermission in which they gave out a DC snowboard and a few cases of Monster. After making a few people happy the new People film Cheers, kicked off and with Jeremy Jones, Seth Huot and J.P. Walker still getting epic parts, brings to mind the phrase ” you can’t teach an old dog new tricks” which was put to shame in there parts. So if you weren’t there, go pick up a copy of both these movies and enjoy.

KRCL Hidden Hollow Concert Series 8/20/10

On August 20th, Libbie Linton and Fictionist provided the entertainment for the fourth edition of KRCL and Utah Open Lands’ Hidden Hollow Concert series.  Linton, who hails from Logan, performed a well received and easily listenable set that showcased her unique voice and her personal take on a combination of mellow rock and classic folk music.  With members from Fictionist jumping in and out of various songs, Linton was able to demonstrate her emotional song writing when performing solo, and the enjoyabilty of more upbeat songs when backed by Fictionist members. 
The group Fictionist was the second performance of the night.  Fictionist plays what can be described as rock with a little bit of pop and indie influences thrown in for good measure.  With two guitars, a bass, a keyboard, and a percussionist, Fictionist is able to alter the mood of their show from song to song.  One song can emphasize their vocals, while the next can be full on rock that gets both the crowd and the energy level picked up. 
Friday night saw the biggest turnout so far at the Hidden Hollow Concert series.  With only two more concerts left, make sure to get out to Hidden Hollow on September 3rd to enjoy some free local music in an intimate setting before it’s too late. … read more
