2010 Miracle Yearbook

INTERRUPTIONS edarville students are complaining about the ridiculous noise blaring from the Hive every Tuesday and Thursday night. Screaming vocals and thumping basses can be felt throughout the SSC making it difficult for students to focus on their studies or Rinnova coffee dates. Many frustrated patrons are calling these mini- concerts a nuisance, but Brian Burns is calling them INTERRUPTIONS! Twice a week,the Hive, with the help of SCAB,handed over its stage to students, giving them an opportunity to showcase their many musical talents. This year has brought with it a variety of musical genres, everything from the self-composed hip-hop stylings of Michael Batts to the Irish jigs of the Demerits to the sassy Spanish beats of Carolyn Deemer and friends. Senior Laura Thayer was not new to the Interruption stage. She had this to say:"I love getting to perform in such a relaxed atmosphere for friends. It's all of us just having a good time, and it's a great way to spend the night." Appearing for the first time in her own Interruption, sophomore Katie Donovan rocked the house with humorous Lady GaGa and Miley Cyrus covers as well as her own personal work: "Interruption is a great experience!" I love the coffee house atmosphere! It was so great to be able to have fun and share some of the music I had written with friends and family!" Not only thrilling for the audience, Interruptions provide valuable experience for the performers,a light-hearted atmosphere to try-out their work and improve their stage presence. Senior Andrew Moses agreed saying,"My interruption was a landmark for me. Before then, I'd never played a gig like that: featuring me and for an hour long. Interruptions have been invaluable for me to learn confidence before an audience." Dave Cianci and Derek Fimbers music adds to the much loved coffeehouse atmosphere ofthe Hive.
