Inside
- Christmas already? (Liz Gaydos Photographer)
It's my favorite time of year again. Christmas Carols are being sung, and people are rushing to check everyone off their Christmas lists. The only difference this year is that it seems to have come a bit earlier than normal. Finals are still weeks away, yet the Christmas buzz is all around. A local radio station plays Christmas music 24-hours a day.

Scene
- Gray stays true to his sound (By MIKE SCHMUHL Scene Music Critic)
David Gray is quite a popular name on college campuses and it isn't uncommon to hear one of his songs being played in a dorm room. However, things weren't always this way.
- Coldplay set the critics straight (by EMILY TUMBRINK Scene Music Critic)
After the successful release of Parachutes, Coldplay's debut album, critics immediately began comparing them to other bands from the United Kingdom including The Verve, U2, Oasis and Travis, ultimately deciding that the British quartet was just another brand of "Radiohead lite," a brand worth trying but not nearly as good as the original. Coldplay's infectious hit single "Yellow" received a decent amount of airplay, and Parachutes achieved notoriety despite the numerous comparisons to other British bands. Very few listeners, however, expected Coldplay to have any sort of lasting impact on the music scene. Boy, were they wrong.
- Harrison's guitar sounds from the grave (By JULIE BENDER Assistant Scene Editor)
As the year anniversary of his death rolls around, it is only fitting that George Harrison should have one final word to say. His new album, Brainwashed, was the project he had been working on when he succumbed to cancer in late November of last year. Although the album remained unfinished at the time of his death, Harrison was prepared. He left specific instructions for his son Dhani, and his good friend and former Travelling Wilburys' bandmate, Jeff Lynne about how to finish the album. And a year later, it is done.
