My Pops Was Right


Ever since I was born it was embedded in my mind that football is a way of life. I was going to be a Longhorn, and I was going to attend every game. Its as if my rst words were Hook Em. When I started college, I had no idea that football is really a culture everyone gets involved with (Who would have known my Pops was right). College campuses are lled with students tailgating, watching football games and wearing school colors with pride. And if you arent, then you should. College is something to be proud of. Which is why I am so glad that September has rolled around. Not only is college football back, but it is the most anticipated month of the year for me. I get football, beer, tequila (...of course) and my birthday! If youre not celebrating with me, youre not doing it right. For the students this semester be prepared. Study Breaks is college life. We are the bible of your college career. You dont want to miss out. Now get your ass out there and tailgate. Your football game is about to start!

Jennifer Yu Online Editor

Jasmine, what is your favorite thing about starting school again?


- William Metcalf, Austin

Kaitlyn, what is the craziest story you have from studying abroad?
- Hiedi Adkins, San Marcos

Abby, what are your tips for staying fashionable when the hectic school year starts up?
- Piper Burke, San Antonio

Jennifer, when is the best time to start looking for an internship?


- Nancy Kong, Austin

With the another semester rolling around the corner, also comes the great sport of football. My favorite thing about starting the fall is the fact that I get to see my Longhorns play on the eld along with Burnt Orange fans everywhere. Saturdays are lled with BBQ, country music, beer and cowboy boots. Saturdays cant get any better than that!

Well, there would have to be a tie between tanning butt naked on the Barcelona beach or nearly getting arrested in Paris on the 4th of July. Both stories involve lots of alcohol, raging, and ignoring consequences after my actions, but both crazy incidents proved successful for me in the end. Cest la vie!

Dresses. Everyone always thinks Im dressed up because I am wearing dresses, but they are really the easiest things to throw on in the morning. Also, my favorite hairstyle through the summer was the messy chignon. No one ever noticed when my hangover prevented me from caring about my hair.

Yippie Kai Yay, Mother Falcon!


in Die Hard, Bruce Williss catchphrase is Yippe kai yay, Mother F--ker! Well, we had heard that theres some cable version of it where hes overdubbed to say Mother Falcon instead. Recently, we found out the overdub was actually Mister Falcon, but at that time, around the high school lunch room table, we thought Mother Falcon was pretty hilarious and that it indirectly gave homage to one of our favorite stars. It stuck.
Yun Du: A lot of people think What is the story behind the name of the band? Nick Gregg: If you remember

words: abby johnston photos: sam grenadier

From their beginning as four structured orchestra students jamming out after rehearsals to todays 19-member ensemble that is catching national medias attention, Mother Falcon has come a long way - and, as far as theyre concerned, they wont stop until theyve reached the top.

remember that, while were in formal black playing to a packed church, our name is still basically a joke on potty words.
How would you summarize your sound, that has been called orchestral pop? Nick: My favorite label that has

its something high-brow, but you have to remember this band came together over a high school lunch table...

been thrown at us thus far is contemporary classical. Id like to think we are free to do whatever we want musically and that it gains cohesiveness through our instrumentation. e uses of strings and horns have a certain classical sense to them and the music is re ective of both old and new trends in music. Some songs like Alligator Teeth have the grind of hip-hop while others like Kathryn waltz into the room.

priority on catchy hooks, hoping to catch the ears of a wide, often pop-listening, audience. But arguments against the word are fair and, long story short, we dont really know what to call ourselves. If we are indeed defying genres, thats even more exciting to me anyway.
How has the transition from college collective to a touring band been? Yun: Were not quite touring yet;

playing with the band for maybe six months before I found this out. Its always a little fun to
16 | SEPTEMBER 2011 | STUDYBREAKS.COM

Matt Puckett: Yeah, I had been

Matt: Its an ongoing discussion.

the furthest weve gone is Dallas. Were de nitely still in the middle of that transition. e hardest part is that a majority of venues simply arent equipped to handle 24+ inputs or even have that many microphones. Other than the equipment purchasing, weve also been practicing how to get in and out of a clown car.
Matt:

I may be one of the few defenders of the pop modi er. My feeling is that, at the end of the day, we are still writing songs with a

eres a lot to learn before we really become a touring band and theres also a lot of schedulejuggling to be done. Sometimes

its like waiting for the planets to align. We are very conscious of the amount of nancial and organizational resources that it would take to put us on a long tour though, so we are taking great care to ensure that we have audiences to visit before we really hit the road. at said, were making tiny forays into other cities this summer--Houston, Dallas, Denton, Birmingham, Mobil--in large part to make sure we work out the kinks before the stakes are raised. So far, so good!
I imagine that with such a large number of rotating band members that everyones style is different. How does that affect your writing process? Nick: We usually start the songs

there, but if we only played shows when everyone could make it wed probably have 2 performances a year. Flexibility is the key.
What has been your favorite experience as a band so far? e most fun times Matt:

Green Light from Still Life was altered a bit the last time we played it in mid-June 2011.
Matt:

The BAND MEMBERS


Laura Andrade - Cello Rita Andrade - Viola Diana Burgess - Cello Kira Bordelon - Violin Clara Brill - Violin Nick Calvin - Cello Maurice Chammah - Violin Yun Du - Violin Nick Gregg - Vocals, Cello, Mandolin, Guitar Austin Harris - Violin Tamir Kalifa - Vocals, Accordion Matt Krolick - Trumpet Gilman Lykken - Bassoon Josh Newburger - Violin Claire Puckett - Vocals, Guitar, Piano Matt Puckett - Vocals, Saxophone, Glockenspiel Dusty Rhodes - Bass Luke Stence - Bass Isaac Winburne - Sax, Percussion, Piano

have always been when all the members commit to clearing their schedules for something big like recording or SXSW. Its extremely rare that we can get together and not have anyone rushing o to do something else, so whenever that does happen its like Mother Falcon Summer Camp.

Tamir: In April, we were invited to

in a smaller writing group made up of a combination of the core writing group, people that are always in town and dont ever rotate out, and whoever else wants to join on that particular day. We then fatten the skeleton of a song through many group rehearsals.

open the annual Fusebox Festival (a contemporary art, music and performance festival that occurs in venues all over Austin). We wrote a piece just for that event that mixed and rearranged some of our songs together to be played by ourselves and 100 volunteer string players.

e scheduling is, of course, a huge feat, but part of why I love this band so much is that when you get everyone in the same room and focused on a task, the work happens so quickly and beautifully that it immediately makes up for all the prior organizational hassle. ere was a huge amount of pre-production and planning for the recording of Alhambra, but once we got everyone into the church where we recorded, we were able to knock out 12 songs in about as many hours.

What is the next step from here? Nick: Creatively, its all about

new songs with new directions with new interpretations. Well push ourselves out of our comfort zones and start to really question and rede ne our creative process.

Yun:

e biggest e ect the rotations have on our music is the arrangement. Particularly in the violin section, I think theres a noticeable di erence between songs depending on who was around when the parts were rst being laid out. Eventually though, people come back and further arrangement changes are made to the song, so its a constantly evolving process and everyone gets their say.

Your band is spread all over the nation. How does that affect your recording/touring/ creative process. Yun: Recording Still Life and

Yun: From a business standpoint,

What is like balancing varying schedules? Matt: Oh goodness, its quite

the production! Twenty-one schedules just create an awful lot of work. However, over the years weve gotten used to writing, practicing and performing in a multitude of con gurations, so even when some folks cant make it we can still play good shows and put our best foot forward. Certainly were never as strong as when every person is

Alhambra were very tricky scheduling issues. Still Life began to be tracked in the bedroom of one of my roommates, but we did the bulk of it over a weekend at the Indie Fort Studio when everyone could get together. For Alhambra, we did like 90 percent of it live over two and a half days at Central Presbyterian in mid-August. Vocals and a few other instruments were overdubbed afterwards. Touring isnt a ected much, as we have everything covered at just 2/3 strength and can even play the songs coherently using less members with some creative arrangements. Creatively, Ive mentioned we have a core group that lays out the meat and bones of the songs, but nothing is set in stone so people eventually come back and can make improvements - even Faint

were looking to expand our fanbase at a national level so we can start touring properly; while most bands can just pack up and go on a tour, our size makes it extra risky and costly to do so without enough support. e best thing you can do to help us out is to just let your out-of-town/ state friends listen to us and see if they like it.

EXPOSING

Mlat
THIS SOULFUL SINGER IS ON HER WAY UP IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, AND SHE DOESNT PLAN ON LOOKING BACK.

words: crystal onyema main photo: kaitlyn clement inset photos: steven granados make up: j. anthony martinez

Tomorrows not promised, so do what makes you happy

20 | SEPTEMBER 2011 | STUDYBREAKS.COM

f you arent familiar with the name Mlat Kassa, then get used to hearing it soon. e recent University of Texas advertising graduate has already put out a mixtape and a Christmas series in 2010. Standing at only 5 feet, 3 inches, it is easy to underestimate her- that is until she opens her mouth and her soulful voice destroys that assumption.

Campaign Music. She is the only singer and female on the label, which consists of rappers Killa Dro and Swi a, producer Pha the Phenom, and Shadyville DJ JC Flores. Making the album was a bit of emotional breakthrough for Mlat. After a long break from music, she struggled to refocus on her art, but the end results were very rewarding. I wrote all of my tracks and co-wrote a few with Pha, Mlat said. roughout making this album, I learned how to work, write, edit and basically do everything better from the guys who have all done these things for years. After the release of her debut Exposed in November 2010 and a subsequent Christmas series, Mlat received positive responses and an ever-growing fan base. However, her budding success did not come without a price. e former party girl had to learn how to balance nishing up school, going to work, and her burgeoning music career. ere is so much time that goes into my music,

While listening to her album Exposed, its hard to tie it to one genre. e Crunk and B style of her singles Purple, Green, and Yellow and Gimme a Shot are perfect pre-club anthems, while Crying Mood and When it Happens hold a serene, mellow mood with a pop avor. Mlat has already begun making a name for herself with San Antonio-based label Campaign Music behind every note. Taking back her inspirations Music has always been a part of Mlat. Its something that she lives and breathes on a daily basis. Ive wanted to do music for so long. I remember being little and dancing to Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson and Ella Fitzgerald, the EthiopianAmerican beauty recalled as she sprawled across her couch for a rare moment of peace. I was watching the Grammys and wanted to sing with Frank Sinatra. Corny, I know! Supported and encouraged by her parents, Mlat started playing piano at age of ve. Although she was initially shy, she began to grab leads in choir and theatre her senior year of high school. Driven by practicality, she chose an advertising major over music when she got to college. She eventually ended up putting music on a two- year hiatus. It wasnt until she met Pha, a UT grad and now her producer, that she decided she wanted to commit herself to music full time. I started to show Pha some of the songs that I had written, said Mlat. I was still too timid to sing in front of people, but he convinced me. Once I sang Ave Maria, he paused and said, Lets get to work! In the studio and out for the public Once they had a solid selection of album-ready songs, Mlat signed on to

she explained. Im out of town every weekend for it. Its overwhelming at times. Ive basically given up some of my social life! Im blessed that I have supportive friends and family, though. With graduation near and new projects to complete, Mlat has taken a huge step into the world of music and will only look ahead to the future, which includes adding her presence and voice to future albums and live performances. Mlat o ers advice to anyone questioning following their dreams. I put myself out there and although it wasnt all roses and gumdrops, Im so proud of what has happened to me. She adds with a wink, And oh yeah, I plan on being at the Grammys sooner rather than later. We hear you Mlat! See you at the Grammys.

10 Things You Dont know About Mlat


1. I am bilingual. I speak Amaharic, the language of Ethiopia. 2. I love, love, love Harry Potter! 3. Favorite Food: Cheese Pizza. I could eat it for every meal. 4. I have never worn a pair of ip ops since I was old enough to decide what to wear. 5. I never use LOL. Not sure why, I just never do. HAHA seems sufcient...haha. 6. I had braces all of middle school. 7. Favorite song of all time: Always Be My Baby by Mariah Carey. 8. Favorite drink: Cranberry vodka 9. I really dont like feet. Eewww.. 10. I took four years of piano. I quit when I was 9, and I hardly remember anything. But I can still make up some pretty nice chord progressions!

HOT BAND
words: ryan elliott photos: lara vanklompenburg

HOT PINK RAIN


Powerful Punk Quartet
e best way to understand this punk rock-quartet from the suburbs is simply achieved by seeing them with your own eyes. Exploding onto the music scene with an exciting amount of patrons, Hot Pink Rain invokes a powerful combination of alternative-punk rock beats with a series of wildly amusing crowd participated antics on stage. e wayward bassist, Conner Hampton of e Woodlands, TX, joined in on the bands newly formed success at local venues once he saw them play an unforgettable set. Once I agreed to play with them, the added sound really created something amazing. People started getting really into the shows and so we responded with bigger and more exciting sets. Consisting of four young and aspiring musicians, this alternative-punk rock project has grown from random bookings at local venues, to a surging fan base with far reaches across the state of Texas. The Story Behind the Band It just kinda started out as a joke, me and a friend thought itd be funny to have a band with a ridiculous name. But then people started coming back to our shows so we kept playing. Says lead guitarist Mark Barnes. Will Cotton, drummer of the band, lled us in on the origin and growth of what turned into a rather talented musical group. Ryan and Mark asked me to play in a theater fundraiser show back in high school. People liked us and we kept playing for the next few years. Now weve got scores of original tracks, and have been to venues in Houston, Austin, and San Marcos. Ryan even tried to book a show for us in California once. Mark Barnes iterated in excitement when asked about the renegade bass player. Conner Hampton joined the band after he saw us play a gig in Houston, and after he jammed on every single one of our instruments we knew we had to have him play with us. He was a brilliant addition to the group. Whats new with HPR? Since the start of 2011, Hot Pink Rain has been working on creating an even bigger name for themselves as their fan basis spreads itself across the country. Rhythm guitarist Ryan Elliott tells Study Breaks what HPR has in store for this next year, and years to come. Weve got friends all over the nation, and every now and then theyll show our tracks to their friends and well get a bunch of e-mails. Were really working on name recognition before we really try to take o . UPCOMING SHOWS: Hometown Heros Acoustic Set: December 24th, The Woodlands TX

Having a sense of camaraderie, Tejas is an organization that focuses on the members. Tejas is an independent social organization which emphasizes on scholarship, leadership, and friendship. ey participate in numerous activities on campus including Hope Week, a week to focus on unity within UT, and Suicide Prevention Week, to raise awareness on suicide behaviors among students. Helping others is a main priority among this all male organization. If youre interested in nding more information and getting to know these amazing group of men, Tejas hosts weekly Co ees at the Tejas house which is open to the public and a distinguished speaker is invited to talk about a topic of interest. Tejas is di erent from other organizations mainly in the manner that people are selected to join the club. Rather than just reading over an application, holding an interview, and selecting members within a week, we take the time to get to know each and every person interested in Tejas. In Tejas, friendship is just as high of a standard as scholarship and leadership.

GET READY TO ROCK!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: ACL 2011


Five years ago three-day passes for the annual Austin City Limits music festival were available up until the month before. Now, if you dont buy tickets the day they are released, you barely have a prayer. With pre-sale tickets gone in less than 45 minutes and general admission snapped up in hours by e-list members before they were even released to the public, it is safe to say that things have changed. This 10th anniversary line-up is packed with not-to-be missed headliners and up-and-coming artists that deserve your attention.

BANDS TO CHECK OUT:


THEOPHILUS LONDON
Brooklyn has long been a safe haven for indie artists, but the latest to come from these streets wont be yielding a guitar. Rapper eophilus London hit the scene in 2008, and armed with his newly released full length debut and some serious festival hustling he is poised to break into the music world at large. His sound is unlike the recent surge of shockrapping indie artists that have come into the spotlight lately (ahem, Odd Future). Rather, he encompasses a variety of in uences from Prince to todays glitchy, electronic beats. London will take the stage at ACL with a fresh release under his belt, so expect to see an artist on the verge.

HUNGRY?
You may not think of ACL as a culinary haven, but the Austin Eats section is a veritable gourmet-Austin ipbook, bringing some of the best restaurants around town. Dont worry, college kids, they bring the cheap eats out too, so everyones ne tuned palettes are satised.

EMPIRE OF THE SUN


It could seem strange that this Australian dance duo would be able to ride the coattails of their debut album for over two years, but Walking on a Dream ushered in a slew of the electronic-pop bands that rule the underground music scene today, keeping Empire of the Sun relevant despite a halt in their releases. ey havent completely rested on their laurels, though. e boys have been on extensive tours throughout North America and Europe, which front man Luke Emperor Steele described as epic, full of colors, dinosaur-teeth chomping at the valleys of future. It will be more outrageous than the sense of imagination and will take the audience on a journey to another world. Frightening? Maybe. Intriguing? De nitely.

EATS TO CHECK OUT


AQUARELLE RESTAURANT & WINE BAR: Not only will you be able to sample some of the best French food in Austin, but change up your beer slugging with some reasonably priced wine. The steak frit sandwich is a perfect festival variation of their normally upscale menu. MIGHTY CONE:

MIXIN IT UP

Aside from the fresh acts featured here and some headliners you may have heard of (Kayne, anyone?), here is your essential ACL mix.

Kurt Vile and the Violators: Jesus Fever Reptar: Cannabis Canyon Fools Gold: Surprise Hotel AWOLNATION: Sail The Vaccines: Wreckin Bar (Ra Ra Ra) Chromeo: Tenderoni Gary Clark, Jr.: Bright Lights Pretty Lights: Cant Stop Me Now Dale Earnhardt Jr.: Morning Thought Big Boi: Lookin 4 Ya 30 | SEPTEMBER 2011 | STUDYBREAKS.COM

Essential AC L Mix

Portable, hot, crunchy and delicious The Mighty Cone has achieved legendary status at the festival for its functionality and uncanny ability to settle your drunchies. In fact, the cone became so popular at ACL it eventually expanded to have its own stand on South Congress year-round.

DEATH FROM ABOVE 1979


ese guys arent news. eir epic reunion tour, however, is the talk of summer festivals. Although Death From Above 1979 (shortened to DFA, if you want to sound in the know) o cially disbanded in 2006, they announced their reunion earlier this year to the relief of their still massive following. DFAs noisy garage rock makes for engaging live show t for spastic, thrashy dance moves and a lot of hair- ipping hipsters. I mean that in the best way possible.

HAPPENINGS FROM 2010

Public transportation was a bitch to catch. Grab a bike & ride!

CHIDDY BANG
Philadelphia may not be the rst place that you think of when you are looking for dynamic hip-hop, but rap collective Chiddy Bang (Chidera Chiddy Anamege and Noah Xaphoon Jones Beresin) may change your opinion. Not that the streets of Philly really gave their birth, much like most music coming out these days, the rappers got their career jump from the blogosphere. eir beats are largely based on sampled artist that would melt any music snobs heart, drawing inspiration from modern freak-folker Sufjan Stevens to French electronic-darling Yelle.

SB Editor, Jasmine caught up with friends during Temper Traps performance.

Music festivals are widely known for being an anything goes atmosphere when it comes to fashion from the clueless girl who came out in stilettos to the guy in itty-bitty jean shorts. Here are practical ways to keep in fashion without burning to a crisp under the unforgiving Texas sun.

FASHION HELPFUL HINTS

BAGS:
Ditch big, bulky bags and downsize to an embroidered sling or backpack. That way, your attention is on the shows and not digging through Pacsafe Slingsafe 200 your giant, catch-all purse Sling Purse $59.99 for a camera. zappos.Com

Friends are easy to lose. Good thing this ag was visible to make new ones.

Tasha Ombr Chain Head Wrap $28 nordstroms.com HEADBANDS:


We know, sometimes the temptation is too much, and festivals give you a weekend pass to let your inner hippie run barefoot and free. So, if you must don the painfully typical headband, choose wisely!

3
SHOES:
The most important thing is to keep it comfortable! Girls: Simple, cheap gladiator sandals with strong straps are highly recommended. Guys: Bust out the Chuck Taylors for this one. Be prepared for a lot of back-andforth dashes across Zilker and dirt everywhere.

Buttery Sunglasses $5.80 forever21.com SUNGLASSES:


These are a must for ACL, as the sun doesnt fully disappear until around 8p.m. You should resist the urge, however, to bring your favorite pair of designer shades, as Zilker is usually a graveyard of lost and crushed items after the festival ends. Forever 21 is a safe bet with their $5 glasses rack.

Double dutch will never get old!

LOOSE FABRICS:

When it gets hot $47.99 modcloth.com enough it is apropos to ditch clothing altogether (with a bikini underneath, ladies!), but until that point clothes that ow are the key to staying cool. High-waist maxi skirts with bandeau tops are a personal favorite.

Light Flight Dress

Beats sick enough to get everyone in the mood, Deadmau5 took ACL by night. STUDYBREAKS.COM | SEPTEMBER 2011 | 31

NOTES

SEXTING

SHOULD YOU TRY IT?

So here is the no brainer: sexting can be very risky. Ive always heard (and witnessed) that what you text, email, chat, and skype your goods all up for others to know and well, see. Ive had my fair share of conversations that I wouldnt when the world seeing, but should that keep you from having some playful fun? If youre dating someone for over a year, then the trust may be strong enough, but be careful if youre sending it to some douche you just met at the bar.

Technology has taken over our lives- including our love lives. Sorry ladies, it isnt about love letters anymore, its about being sexy via email or text messages. Here are some rules to keep in mind while doing the deed in sexting. Sexual Health Peer educator Milla Impola gives you helpful hints.

THE SEXTING- TIME RULES:


Dont take pictures in dirty rooms. His main focus should be all eyes on you. If your room is messy, clothes everywhere, it takes away the sexy factor. Put a passcode on your phone Whether youve accidently forgot to erase those pictures, or your outbox, you sure dont want the possibility of you losing your phone and those pictures getting in the hands of anyone else. Pay attention to your To: indicator is mistake has been made by many, and this includes sending a picture to someone else. Lets not mistaken Dad for Dan. Dont Send it drunk. Especially if the picture was taken when you were drunk. If its a picture, carefully consider whether you want your face in it or not. What? at wasnt me. ats not my.face.? Its never your turn. You know, Ive had guys send me a picture of their full on nude body, ding dong showing and all, and then saying Babe, your turn. Just because they send a sexy text/picture to you does not mean you OWE one back. Type out speci cally what you would like to do to them. I suggest actually typing out speci cally what you would like to do to the person. I cant wait to *insert derogatory word of choice for sex here* you just doesnt seem as sexually arousing as describing in detail what youd like to do to the other person. Imagination is a powerful tool, people. Use it. But still keep in mind that whatever you send might (and probably will) be shared with someone else. Its like getting a really funny joke, part of the fun is getting to share it with someone else.

RIDE THE CHERRY BOMB


COME LET THE WILDEST PARTY BUS IN AUSTIN POP YOUR CHERRY

WHY YOU SHOULD RIDE


Your hottest vehicle for formals, birthdays, bachelor or bachelorette parties, or just for the hell of it - because when did college kids need an excuse to drink? Cold drinks, a killer sound system and karaoke - sounds like an awesome new downtown bar, right? Even better, its on wheels! Since last summer, the Cherry Bomb has been Austins premier party bus, generally unassuming on the outside, but fully stocked with anything you need for a wild night out on the interior. With room up to 40 people (or more!), the Cherry Bomb has plenty of seating (and were not talking about those terrible school bus benches from your childhood), a lighted dance oor, and a dance pole that always makes for a rowdy time. Not only do they have amazing speakers, but they have the playlist to match. Local celebrity DJ Ken customizes party mixes for the Cherry Bomb, but there is also an mp3 hookup and jukebox ready to go. Wherever you want to go - downtown, to dinner, or even stay on the bus, the Cherry Bomb can take you there.

Mack Is Pumped

2011 Bounce Back Season


The Longhorn football season is upon us. After a very disappointing 5-7 2011 season, this team is rarin to go. Wholesale changes to the coaching staff and a host of young players with a ton of talent will inject new life into this team, which looked lethargic and bored on the eld last year. The new offensive coordinating pair of Bryan Harsin and Major Applewhite will run a much more dynamic offense, and new defensive coordinator Manny Diaz will get the defense back into form.

GAME BY GAME PREDICTIONS 2011

RICE
at Austin, TX

Sept. 3rd

Into the Rice Cooker!


The Longhorn football team will be pumped up beyond belief in their opener with a renewed sense of butt-kicking. On the menu is some tasty Rice. Last years underperforming Longhorn team beat this Rice squad 34-17, so this should be a blowout. Right?

Texas: 45 Rice: 13
VS

BRIGHAM YOUNG
at Austin, TX

Sept. 10th

Bring em Young, and Leave em Losers!


Unfortunately for BYU, there is no Jim McMahon, Steve Young or Ty Detmer behind center. The young Longhorns, after a sound butt-whoopin of the Rice Owls, should take off where they left off last week and smoke the Cougars.

Five-Car Pile Up

Texas: 34 BYU: 17

Sept. 17th

California Dreamin
Revenge will be on the Longhorns minds as they travel to sunny Southern California for this home-and-home rematch. The Bruins will again have a pretty average squad, but may give this young Longhorn team ts. Lets be real and not California dreamin, and realize that this is going to be a tough game to win.

UCLA: 24 Texas: 20
VS

IOWA STATE
at Ames, IA

Oct. 1st

Blowin Through the Cyclones


After a tough game (and potentially a loss) against the Bruins out west, the Longhorns will be hungry for a win, especially to kick off the Big-12 season. The Cyclones may present more problems than normal, especially in Ames. Still, the Longhorns will be too much for Iowa State.

Red River Shootout

Always a barnburner, were thinking this time that both offenses will have their way with the opposing defenses. Oklahoma will be a top-5 ranked program to start the season, and will likely come into this game undefeated. For the Longhorns to win, Manny Diazs defense will have to clamp down late and somehow contain this potent offense. It can happen, Longhorn fans. You just have to believe.

Cowboy Meltdown?

tc

hup

You know how it goes, Longhorn fans. The Burnt Orange beats down a solid opponent, and then comes home and loses to a lesser foe. In this case, the Cowboys could actually be the Big-12s best. A loss here would not only be a surprise, but it is probably a forgone conclusion. Stranger things have happened, though.

1 2 3

Offensive Line: It was a key to victory in 2010, and we all saw what happened. It needs to improve and get the new offensive system for this team to win. Period. Dominant D: Manny Diaz is a ery leader that should will his unit to make big plays. In short, it MUST make big plays to get the offense back on the eld. Quarterback: It seems simplistic to think that Garrett Gilbert, or whoever is under center, has to play well. Turnovers have to be kept to a minimum, and the offense should move and ow.

Tommy Tuberville brings in a Red Raider football team that may be struggling to nd an identity (and wins) here to Austin. The Longhorns cannot get complacent, though, as this is one of those games that can be construed as a trap.

The Tigers will enter the season as a top-25 program, but after losing Blaine Gabbert and a host of other playmakers, this team may be struggling at this point in the season. At this point in the season, the defense should be making big plays and the offense should have its gears moving.

Texas A&M: 31 Texas: 24

VS

BAYLOR
at Waco, TX

Dec. 3rd

Wacky Waco Win


Instead of closing the season against the Ags, the Horns head up the 35 to Waco to take on a Baylor team that will probably have a handful of wins and may need this game to become bowleligible. More than likely, though, itll be a Longhorn win in a highscoring affair.

Texas: 47 Baylor: 38

KEY PLAYER

Malcolm Brown 6 220 lbs

The running-back-by-committee approach may be totally scrapped if Brown is as good as advertised. Look, the Horns do have some competent runners in the stable, but Brown is a game-changer. He is going to be a star for this Longhorn team for years to come. Coaches Applewhite and Harsin will get him the ball in key situations and hell come through.
We think that a 9-3 record would be a huge turnaround after a dismal 5-7 record in 2010. The defense could become dominant once again, and the offense should produce some big-time reworks. Now, whos up for some Bowl-ing?

For Brown to maximize his effort, though, the Horns offensive line MUST be able to open up running lanes. The unit has been muchmaligned for the past few years, and has to become absolutely dominant in order for Gilbert to remain upright and the aforementioned Brown to break big runs.

TAILGATE THE RIGHT WAY

LET THESE STEPS GUIDE YOUR TAILGATING SKILLS


Its Saturday morning and youre A. getting an early start on studying, B. hitting the snooze button for the fteenth time, or C. shot-gunning a beer with your fellow teammates to show your school spirit? We all know the correct answer is C, so here are steps to make sure youre cheering for your team the right way.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR REAL ID


Enough said. They will be checking IDs at tailgates to get free beer, so make sure you take your identication to show them who is old enough to drink. Yes, twenty-four-year-olds exist as freshmen. KEY: Smile, stand tall, and drink!

DRESS ACCORDINGLY

MASTER THE ART OF DRINKING

ALWAYS CARRY THE ESSENTIALS

Football season can get a bit tricky. One game its hot, another its colder than the North Pole, and there are even times its so humid outside, your hair is taking you back to the 70s. Check the weather before hand, to make sure youll be able to watch, eat, and drink comfortably.

Want a How-To done? Tweet us @StudyBreaks


54 | SEPTEMBER 2011 | STUDYBREAKS.COM

You have two hours before the game starts. That means, two hours to drink all the Shiner Bock you wish (or whatever your favorite beer is). Mastering the art of drinking at tailgates is a necessity. Fastest beer bong? Youve got it champ. Who can shotgun a beer in under 5 seconds...cold? You can. Now all you need is the Rocky theme song to dance along with.

The main reason to tailgate is to booze it up before heading to the stadium to see your team kick ass. What are the essentials to drink the right way? Take your koozie because beer after beer can get a bit cold, your sunglasses because it is 11am on a Saturday and the sun is starting to reach its peak, and oh yeah, the reason youre tailgating, a football game! Dont forget your ticket to get in.

Football season is right around the corner. While your hands are filled with beer and tailgate foods, there is only one more ingredient that makes the perfect tailgate complete. Thats country music.

Eli Young Band


It all started as students gathering together to play music they loved. Little did they know, it would evolve into something theyd never imagined. Eli Young Band began when four students met at college and started to play music they loved. Having all di erent backgrounds attributed to the music they created. It meshed perfectly, where the fans loved the perfect median of rock-country. e music they play is a balance of old school country, to rock indie to new school country Its a little bit of everything where fans can nd a liking to any song. Trying to balance school and playing was a tough decision, but as college students, they had high hopes of becoming successful

artists. However, separating their dreams from reality was always a close call, Youd never though youd be this big. You have dreams of becoming an artist but you also have to be realistic. We still went to college, we graduated with degrees, and made enough money to pay the bills while still creating the band, says Mike Eli in an interview. What got this band to be so successful is that they always tried to work harder than anyone else who was creating music. You have to take every opportunity that crosses your path, because each one can lead to the next opportunity. Always entertain anyone who wants to talk to you, you never know what the next step it.

Brandon Rhyder
WIN!
If It Wasnt For e Fan Base, ere Wouldnt Be A Band. Brandon Rhyders popularity has grown tremendously in the past few months, and if you havent heard from him yet, its about time you get on board. His music ranges from slow love melodies to fast paced sounds that please the crowd. Among the many other red dirt singers, Rhyders sound is di erent. And once you hear it, its hard to let go of. e red dirt country music we sing isnt your Nashville country. is country music is real, original, and authentic.
e cool thing about what we get to do in the country world, it wouldnt be considered nashville country-- just red dirt, there is a market that your fans allow us to do, if it wasnt for the fan base, then there wouldnt be a band. says Brandon in an interview. Keeping the fans at the top of the bands priority list while making the music, is Brandons goal. With him as lead vocals, Matt Powell playing on the guitar and Dusty Saxon on the drums, they all play red dirt music that gives fans a new perspective.

Randy Rogers Band


Grab a Hold of Your Dancing Partner e Randy Rogers Band graced the cover of Study Breaks back in 2007, and since then have steamrolled to the top in the Texas Country Music Scene. eir newest album, Burning the Day, was released back in August of last year, and is still making major waves well into 2011.

Kevin Fowler
Actually, Its Kevin F #king Fowler, * To Be Correct. If youre looking for a crazy, beer drinking, hell-raising country music sound, this is your man. Kevin Fowler said it best, is aint your Daddys country music. is is country music for the shitty attitude. Someone who is all about having a good time and not taking anything too seriously, is why his fans love him the most. He has the crazy attitude himself and says things before thinking. When I walked onto the tour bus for an interview, the rst thing I was told, Kevin is kind of an asshole. Dont be o ended if he says something mean. My response? Well, Im kind of a bitch. is will be interesting. And interesting is what it was.
Fowler spends most of the year on tour, its in your blood or its not, simply because thats all he wants to make great music for his fans to have a kick-ass party to. He loves to write songs, make records and to create music, however, that is just all just a means to the end, which is to get on stage and play for people. If you think your attitude can hold up with lyrics such as I want a fat bottom girl, and I aint drinkin anymore, but I aint drinkin any less his music is something you should really check out. His latest album is Chippin Away released this past July. www. kevinfowler.com

Josh Abbott Band


If You Havent Listened To It Yet, You Dont Get It
When asked what the band is about, lead singer Josh Abbott responds, We are not fake ass country music. at the band plays country music that they is know is real- playing solos with ddles and having one harmony behind the songs which truly brings back the feel of country music. While many country singers are wanting to go through the pop-country genre and trail away from what comes natural, Josh Abbott stays secure with their music and sounds.
College Rivals!

Breaking away from the stereotype of typical dip-spittin singers, this band creates music to express their personality- fun. e music they play has a rock and roll feel to it to entertain the crowd to the fullest. e crowd enjoys a beer, dancing and having fun. If you havent listen to it yet, you dont get it, says Abbott. To hear a few of their sounds, be sure to check out their newest album, Shes like Texas to listen for yourself.

Matt Wayne & Co.


Red Dirt Rock & Roll Matt Wayne possesses what much of the rockers with so-called red dirt in their veins are sorely lacking: kickass Southern soul. is North Texas based artist who captivated the 2008 Larry Joe Taylor Festival crowd with a stirring set that included not only chills from the audience, but also a hearty standing ovation. Knowing the emotions that Waynes music can arouse in a crowd, its of little shock that he was asked to be the regular opener for the highly attended Wednesday night series at Overtime Sports Bar & Grill in Burleson, where he has frequently set the stage for many of the great musicians in Red Dirt Country. After his rst paying gig age 21, Matt Wayne realized that he wouldnt be just another face in the world of Red Dirt Rock & Roll, and continues to pioneer the world of southern rock today.

Practical Tips To Help You Lose Weight


From tness expert Tim Kaderli CEO of Synergy Fitness. synergytnessbootcamp.com

Time For You To Take Action!

GET ENOUGH SLEEP


Sufcient rest make it easier to shed pounds. Researcher proves that shorting yourself on sleep makes you feel hungrier, and causes hormone alterations that affect your metabolism and cause you to gain weight.

WRITE IT DOWN
Write down everything that you eat (www.mytnesspal.com), it will make you more aware of what youre consuming. And less likely to mindlessly eat.

DONT BUY IT
Out of sight, out of mind. When you shop, stay away from empty calorie foods. Only shop on the outside walls in your grocery store, where the fresh whole foods are kept. Avoid the middle aisles, where the processed foods are kept.

CHECK YOUR APPETITE


Are you truly hungry or are you depressed, anxious or tired instead? Make sure youre experiencing physical huger before you eat.

SKIP THE SPORTS DRINKS

CREATE NEW HABITS


Do you walk in the door at night and head straight for the refrigerator? Instead, drink a big glass of water and take a shower, anything to create a new, healthier habit.

Unless youre an elite athlete, you dont need sports drinks during and after exercise. Plain water is ne.

DONT DRINK LIKE A FISH

GET ENOUGH PROTEIN


Many people dont eat enough protein. Consume protein at every meal (at least 20 to 30 grams) to help keep your energy levels high. 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight is best.

Alcohol calories add up quickly, there are about 150 calories in 6 oz of wine, 12oz. of beer or one shot of alcohol. Alcohol consumption also increases estrogen production. Estrogen leads to body fat production/storage.

MAKE IT A COLD ONE


Drinking ice cold water before a meal suppresses your appetite. It also raises your metabolic rate because your body must warm it after you drink it.

WHATS #TRENDING HOT OR NOT


words: abby johnston photos: press

Follow us @StudyBreaks for more trends! #wearecollegelife


September is here, and it is time to trade in summer shorts for fall fashion and new addictions. Here is Study Breaks guide for fall fashion and time wasters, because we know youre STILL not paying attention in class.

HOT

Neon Not sure when sweaty concert wear became appropriate for class, but save your neon for raves. Or leave it to the traffic cones.

HOT

Skinny jeans Skinny jeans are here to stay, at least for another season. Just be sure not to overdo it. Pair them with loose, flowey tops to give your outfit some balance.

NOT
Jewel tones As the leaves change, so should your wardrobes pallette. From accessories to outfits, mustard yellow and jade green are prominent colors for fall fashion. Jegging jean hybrids Youre a big girl, and you need to make decisions - wear real denim jeans or jeggings. Not the weird hybrid in-between.

NOT

HOT

Feather extensions Yes, were still obsessed too, but recent ethical issues have arisen about the treatment of chickens and the fishermen who rely on the feathers. Stay on the safe side and go for the earrings.

HOT

Feather earrings Long feather earrings still have all the drama of the funky feather trend, but you can take them out at the end of the day!

NOT

Spotify Combine Grooveshark and your iTunes library and what do you have? Spotify. Not only can you access your friends published playlists, but you also have search options and the ability to take it on the go.

iTunes Because why have access to only your own music when you can have everyone elses?

NOT

HOT

Bland and boring You can only own so many solid color shirts. Step out of the box, or at least out of your shirt.

Forget Google+, Pinterest is our latest addiction. Think of it as a digital cork board without having to physically cut or tape anything.

NOT

HOT
Tumblr we love you, but you have already eaten our soul away. Well see you when we get tired of our latest social media addiction.

NOT
Color blocks - The best trends are ones that can carry from season to season. Just when you thought the tricolor block was gone for good, it made a huge splash!

Musicfest 2012
6 Days. 40 Bands. 5 Mountains. ONE REALLY BIG TENT.
words: jasmine vallejo photos: Todd Purifoy + Carll Dunn + B. Baird

Musicfest was successful the rst year... and the second year.. and youve guessed it-- the third year too. Thats why its back for the 27th year because students who like to jam out with their friends among the most beautiful mountains in the world keep coming back to celebrate.

Where ski-lovin meets music-lovin


Not only do you have time to hit the slopes, but you have time to celebrate with bands already conrmed for the trip at Steamboat, Colorado, you are sure to catch great live music from: Randy Rogers Band, Chris Knight, Band of Heathens, Curtis Grimes, Reckless Kelly, Casey Donahew Band, Jack Ingram, No Justice, Jason Boland, Cory Morrow, Wade Bowen, Stoney LaRue, Roger Creager, Kyle Park, Kevin Fowler and many more!

Steamboat, Colorado

www.BIGSKITRIP.com

What happens on the slopes, stays on the slopes


Music, friends, beautiful scenery and special drinks of your choice are the perfect ingredients for a memorable winter break trip. Why stay at home and sulk with no story to tell to your grandchildren? Over 50 performances take place during Musicfest, and believe me, its an amazing opportunity to see as many great Texas and Americana artists as you can handle... all in one spot.

Perfect t for you


Whether you are ready for a cozy winter trip or for a action packed one, watching the concerts are crucial to Musicfest. They are held in different sizes including a stage resembling an old barn/hunting lodge, a huge tent, an intimate pub, an old saloon, a luxurious ballroom, and and outdoor stage.

Top 5 Reasons to leave Texas for Winter Break


1 Texas doesnt even 1.
have a winter. 2. 2 When you open your front door, you dont see hot skiers.

3. 3 Hot tubbing. Enough said. 4. 4 Spiked hot chocolate will be your new favorite recipe. 5. 5 You can nally wear UGGs without looking ugly.

WITH

CHELSEY KILZER & HER SUPER CHIC ROOMIES


What do you get when you combine lots of estrogen, creativity and six very different styles? The cutest condo in the world. Chelsey Kilzer and her ve roommates have managed to balance each of their unique styles and make sure that everyone is represented on their walls. Chelsey gives us advice on keeping things fair and how to merge varying styles.

How did you manage to incorporate everyones style into one?

We kept very simple basics, like plain black couches and a plain black co ee table. We incorporated everyones style by creating our gallery wall. Everyone has at least one contribution. We were able to include all of our favorite eclectic pieces, like the mis-matched knobs and John Lennon poster.

If you had to pick one item in your apartment that described all of the roommates, what would it be?

Our tissue paper ower canvas is de nitely the piece that describes us. It was a handmade piece that Katherine and Rachel both worked on. Each ower was made by hand and sewn onto the canvas. e original idea was to use all of the colors of tissue paper transitioning from warm to cool colors. We edited it to just include the warm colors, because they are much more inviting.
How do you decide what makes the cut in the apartment, or do you just add things and hope no one moves it?

OUR PLACE

Each flower was made by hand and sewn onto the canvas.

Plain black couches and coffee table makes great neutral.

Decorating has been a collaborative e ort. It de nitely helps that our styles are pretty similar. When deciding on the pieces to include in the gallery wall we considered how well each piece went together and its placement on the wall. If something didnt t or didnt look right we didnt include it.
What advice would you give to people who are trying to combine very different styles?

74 | SEPTEMBER 2011 | STUDYBREAKS.COM

De nitely compromise. It helps to have roommates with similar styles, but we still did not agree on everything. It helps to be open minded. We all had very vague ideas of how we wanted to set up the gallery wall, and I think we ended with a better result than we had ever imagined. Decorating for ve takes collaboration.

FOOTBALL FACTS

Sagittarius
Create a study group. No hot friends allowed. Youll never get any studying done.

Although an NFL football game can last up to three hours the ball is really only in play for about 11 minutes. During a football game, Georgia Tech once beat Cumberland University 222-0. The huddle in a football game was created by deaf football players. This technique was to prevent the opposing team to read their plays through sign language. When youre watching a football game on television, more than 56% of plays shown are ones you have already seen, replayed.
