It's Saturday morning, and Sean Canino is stressed out. He's standing in the Marketplace lobby with a camera jib, and although his day of filmmaking has run smoothly so far, he's beginning to hit some rough spots. He's having trouble getting the right camera angles. He's getting irritated by freshman passers-by interfering with his shots. And he's frantically trying to direct his cast of characters over the clanking of dishes and the incessant beeping of DukeCards swiping in for brunch.

It's probably more my style to write something lighthearted and tongue-in-cheek for a senior column, but I feel compelled to share a story with you.

Like Wool E. Bull, the Regulator Bookshop and (until recently) LocoPops, pulsoptional is one of those rare pheonomena you can only find in Durham.

For a vampire, Eric Elbogen is pretty subdued. He doesn't speak with a creepy accent, his hair isn't slicked back and his bushy brown beard gives him an appearance more befitting Amish Pennsylvania than Draculian Transylvania.

It's rare for Duke and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to come down on the same side of anything this time of year.

Almost every year in recent memory, Duke students have found a reason to complain about the bands selected to perform on the Last Day of Classes. Invariably, the moans and groans center on some claim that the artists are either second rate, past their prime or some combination of the two.

The Duke University Police Department is currently investigating the weekend theft of thousands of dollars worth of equipment from a student-run recording studio on West Campus.

Just as the final echoes of last week's Chris Thile and Edgar Meyer performance are fading from Page Auditorium, another group of Grammy Award-winning crossover stars are preparing to take the stage: the Turtle Island String Quartet.

When Phish decided to call it quits in 2004, every dreadlocked, herb-smoking devotee of the jam gods thought the same thing: Well, what now? Would a new leader take over the band's legacy, once again giving hippies everywhere a reason to exist? (That reason being, of course, to follow that band around the country, selling grilled cheese in the parking lots before the show.)

Say goodbye to the Spanish benches.

For two hours on a rainy Tuesday night in Durham, a group of 20 locals ceased to be businessmen, retirees and students-and became, instead, African drummers.

Rodrigo y Gabriela are not flamenco jazz guitarists. They can't stress this enough, yet the pioneering metal-rockers-turned-spicy-acoustic-virtuosos continue to be labeled as such. Sure enough, the band's Friday evening show on the West Campus Plaza is being advertised as "Flamenco/Jazz Guitars."

Of Montreal is scheduled to play at Duke Friday, Sept. 29.

Album: Turn Around
(09/20/06 4:00am)
It sits quietly amid the flow of commuting students, most of whom probably aren't even aware of its existence.

Rarely do the words "good music" and "radio" end up in the same sentence, but we'll make an exception for art-rock quintet TV on the Radio and their latest release, Return to Cookie Mountain (Interscope). From its first jarring beats, this album thrusts a bold collage of noise into your face and dares you to look away. Their sound--a brawny mix of guitars, synths, drum machines and haunting layered vocals--may take a little getting used to. But what this album lacks in immediate accessibility, it more than makes up for in dazzling originality.
