I remember going online for the first time (AOhell, of course), back in the early '90s-the novelty of entering a chat room and being able to "speak" with other gays and lesbians from Durham to Pocatello, Idaho, to countries far and wide was exciting and new. Folks were earnestly trying to connect, to share coming out stories, to compare notes on the state of gay life in the heartland or the Bible Belt. It was a way to learn that you weren't alone, that there was hope for a life outside of the closet, and if you weren't ready to kick open that door, a venue to feel free. It became clear early on that while the Internet presented a powerful medium to connect socially, it presented a way to profoundly change the way the gay community viewed itself. Because one could trade notes about how t...

Such performances are dependent on what Z'EV calls a sextet of factors. "There's me, the instruments, the space itself, the acoustics, " the time of day and physical location, and the energy of the people. Change any of those, and you have created a different performance situation. It's a complex situation that's happening." To wit, Z'EV often doesn't perform on the stage. Instead, he'll simply set up in the portion of a venue that sounds the best.
So why haven't most people heard of this relentless sound experimenter? After all, he's had commissions from John Zorn and collaborated with heavies like John Cage and contemporaries like Japanese noisemaker KK Null, no-wave composer Glenn Branca and The Hafler Trio. He remains an icon to many interested in methods like cut-ups, phasing and r...

You wouldn't have known from Rey Norteño's set that the band hadn't slept in 36 hours. (Rey Norteño drove all night Friday to get back from Savannah, where they opened for Mexican megastars Conjunto Primavera.) The band of local norteño kings sang hits from its 2006 album, Raleigh, as well as some classics by Los Invasores de Nuevo Leon and Ramon Ayala. And this year's most underappreciated gem was Braco, the Latin fusion project of Winston-Salem bassist/pianist Cesar Oviedo (who also leads West End Mambo). The Santana-styled quintet with electric guitar and rock drums is a refreshing change of pace in the musical landscape. Still, things felt off this year: Perhaps La Fiesta should relocate to a cheaper venue, focus only on North Carolina acts or leverage some of that corporate sponsor...

When coach Brenda Frese took Kristi Toliver and Marissa Coleman out late in the second half of Maryland's rout of Utah on Tuesday, the seniors received a standing ovation from the 10,065 fans at Comcast Center.
The crowd support was the one of the numerous benefits the Terrapins enjoyed while playing their first two NCAA tournament games at home, where they dispatched Dartmouth and the Utes by a combined 44 points.
