‘Avenue Q’ isn’t for the kids about four years ago. It looked so fun, easy and effortless but now I have a better appreciation for [puppetry],” said Stegemoller. “It’s very different and hard. You have to have two brains working: yours and the puppet’s.”

The puppet is an extension of you, she said, and it’s more than moving their mouth at the same time as you’re singing. Actors have to make sure their puppets are looking where they are and also that puppets take breaths and walk in strides, according to Stegemoller.

Actors used socks during auditions and only had the actual puppets to work with for about three to four weeks before dress rehearsals began.

Fortunately, UA alumna Michelle Lane led an intensive puppet workshop for an entire week to practice getting the movements into the actors’ bodies and not being afraid of the puppet, said Stegemoller.

“We all honed them in to make them come to life,” Stegemoller said.

Stegemoller said it’s going to be hard to say goodbye to Lucy the Slut once the show ends. “It becomes your child and a part of you,” she said. “You get attached to them.”

“Avenue Q” boasts full puppet nudity, said Stegemoller, but more than that, it’s a show that all students can find something to relate too — whether it’s relationships, finding a job, coming out or the looming fears of graduation.

CECELIA MARSHALL If Big Bird and the characters of “Sesame Street” are out of a job in a few months, the characters of “Avenue Q” may be able to fill in.

Arizona Repertory Theatre introduces its fall semester musical, “Avenue Q,” directed by Rob Gretta.

The Tony Award winner for “Best Musical,” written by Robert Lopez and Jeff Marx, satirizes coming of age stories in a hilarious manner — taking messages from PBS’ “Sesame Street,” such as “you can do anything you set your mind to,” and flipping them upside down to reveal that you actually aren’t that special after all.

This musical based on puppet mastery with an adult-themed twist will hoist you by your underpants (if you’re wearing any) and won’t let go.

Musical numbers echo the cheery tunes played on each episode of “Sesame Street” or other educational after-school broadcasting but take a deeper meaning.

Songs talk about how everyone is racist, the pleasure in others’ pain, homosexuality, how college degrees are useless and how life generally sucks. The show teaches the hardships of adulthood in a very frank manner by using expletives freely and often, causing gasps and roaring laughter from the audience.

Roommates Rod and Nicky, mockingly similar to Bert and Ernie, address the key question in their

THOUGH THE STORY is told solely with puppetry, ‘Avenue Q’ touches on a series of emotive and hilarious adult themes.

Caitlin Stegemoller, a musical theatre senior, plays Lucy the Slut.

She had experience in previous ART musicals such as “Into the Woods” but adding the element of puppetry has taken it to an entirely different level.

“I saw ‘Avenue Q’ on Broadway

Oh yes, puppet sex. Some of us have witnessed puppet fornication in movies like “Team America: World Police,” but it’s done quite differently on stage, and the song, “You Can Be as Loud as the Hell You Want (When You’re Makin’ Love)” is enough of an explanation.

Trekkie Monster, like Cookie Monster, deals with obsession, but instead of sweets and desserts, he is addicted to porn and leads a rip-roaring number called, “The Internet Is For Porn.”

From the club to the crust, check out these pizzerias HAYDEN JORDE Should you find yourself on Fourth Avenue or Congress Street this weekend, remember, one pizza does not fit all occasions.

There’s a perfect pizza for those moments when you drunkenly stumble out of Opti Club, Plush or Mr. Heads and are overcome with the insatiable urge to gorge yourself on some greasy cheesy goodness.

There’s also a pizza for the times when you are enjoying an evening out perusing the many shopfronts on Fourth Ave. and would like to partake in a pizza with some truly unique flavor. Here are the two best joints to grab a slice in their respective niches.

When it comes to the sober pizza near campus, it’s gotta be Magpies.

“They have some super delicious vegetarian options. My favorite pizza to get there is the White Pie,” said Julie Fagg, an anthropology junior.

Magpies truly earns this praise, as it has some of the best-tasting pizza to be found in Tucson.

For those hazier nights, Brooklyn Pizza Company, down the street from Magpies on Fourth Avenue, is worth the drunken adventures it takes to get there.

“I don’t even remember [how we made it to Brooklyn Pizza],” said Nicole Rivera, an English sophomore, when telling the story of how she and her friends ended up taking a cab all the way to Brooklyn Pizza after a party.

Von Isser then began doing fashion shows around Tucson, notably for the Art Institute of Tucson, and then another at the Fox Theatre downtown. He signed with an agency called Fusion and started learning more about modeling.

“When I first started, it was extremely nerve-racking,” Von Isser said. “In order to prep myself for the fashion show, I pretend to be walking backstage and make sure I remember all the instructions given to me for the walk, such as when to go, turn right or turn left.

It was full of decadent couture, parties, celebrities, artists and models. One of those models is a student at the UA. Max Von Isser, a marketing senior, started modeling about a year ago, and it was essentially by accident.

“I was at Buffalo Exchange when one of the girls that worked there — and at this point I was a pretty frequent customer — asked me if I wanted to model for her,” Von Isser said.

The photographer, Stephanie Lew, was trying to build her portfolio with more male models, according to Von Isser.

Fake IDs don’t seem to be worth the consequences SOPHIA ZENO & K.C. LIBMAN

Rob alcaraz/arizona daily wildcat

At the UA, the only thing that is more prevalent than fake IDs are fake ID tickets. College students are notorious for drinking, especially those that aren’t 21.

This underage drinking craze has brought college students around the nation to resort to purchasing fake IDs from various sources, which have had many adverse effects.

With the increase of ID purchases comes increased security, and authorities are keeping a keen eye for those illegally purchasing alcohol, often resulting in a class 1 misdemeanor.

This punishment can carry up to $1,500 in fines, hours of community service at the discretion of the appointed judge, a suspended license and possible jail time.

Many students refrain from purchasing a fake ID because of the possible consequences.

Additionally, bars in the Tucson area have stepped up their security, making it much more difficult for an underage individual to enter or purchase alcohol, especially at hot spots around campus like Gentle Ben’s, Dirtbag’s and Frog & Firkin.

Taylor Chambers, pre-physiology sophomore, said she made a habit of using her fake ID to buy alcohol around local stores and sometimes used it at the bars around campus.

Chambers purchased her ID on ID Chief, a now-defunct Chinesebased fake ID “mill” website, and used her ID one to two times a week, usually without any issues. During one visit to University Boulevard, Chambers’ ID was detected as a fake, resulting in fraudulent identification charges — which

Tucson’s pop fixture brings his band back to town PRESS PHOTO EVEN THOUGH HE’S been a fixture in the Tucson music scene for years, Logan Greene Electric is pop player Logan Greene’s first true foray into a real, consistent band.

Logan Greene Electric is making its way home ALEX WHELAN

I

f you go to enough local concerts, chances are high that you’ve heard of Logan Greene.

Greene, 24, has been a fixture of the Tucson music scene for years now, having played in a plethora of bands whose genres all vary immensely. Greene’s newest project, the aptly named Logan Greene Electric, has had plenty of gigs around town over the last six months.

Its show supporting The Drowning Men this Saturday at Solar Culture Gallery and Performance Space marks something special, though: a homecoming from LGE’s first-ever West Coast tour.

The genesis of Logan Greene Electric came from Greene’s desire to simply focus on creating one outlet for the kind of power pop he says he’s been writing over the course of the last year.

“I’ve always just had so many bands going on at one time that it got to a point where I really wanted to just pick one thing and go with it,” Greene said. “I’ve got this bad habit of really flitting between genres and people that I want to play with, and then sort of cutting ties with a

project and wanting to start again. I wanted something I would stick with for a while.”

In March of this year Greene recruited fellow veteran musicians Ray Borboa on drums and Robert Sidwell on bass to complete the lineup and set to work on writing his new material.

“At first we were sort of working with some leftover songs I had from other projects,” Greene said, “but pretty soon we started writing a whole new batch of songs, and that’s what we put on the EP.” Nearly every show the band has put on featured new material, which is an impressive track record for a group that averages two shows a month in Tucson. The emphasis on songwriting is just another one of Greene’s new approaches to creating and packaging his music these days.

“A goal with this band is definitely to have too many songs, just in the hopes that when it comes time to record we can really pick out the decent ones from the mediocre,” he said. “I want to make a record that has a majority of good songs, rather than including filler just because I wasn’t taking enough time to write more.”

Greene has become something of a touring professional.

His press packet boasts that he played upward of 115 shows outside of Tucson last year.

“I went on my first tour when I was still in high school,” Greene said. “But every tour is still pretty different.”

Beginning with its tour kickoff last month, LGE represented the Tucson scene all around the Southwest, playing 14 do-it-yourself shows in 16 days throughout California, Arizona and Las Vegas. Its ability to travel so far and wide from Tucson is in no small part due to Greene’s role as ambassador for Tucson’s scene, having been responsible for booking shows at several venues in town while still managing to ensure every band has gas money and a place to stay the night.

As almost any band will tell you, Tucson has something of a reputation for warm reception — something Greene hinted doesn’t always exist outside of the state.

“Everywhere we went there were people watching us, and the people at the venues were all very nice, but it was the show we played in Flagstaff that really blew me away,” Greene said. “Everyone stayed inside to hear us, and we made the most merchandise sales that night too. It really made me appreciate Arizona and how much people seem to care about helping bands out here.”

That’s the kind of sentiment one hopes for at any good show, and Logan Greene Electric has been killing it long enough that the show this weekend is sure to be a blast.

Albums worth a look this weekend Tame Impala, ‘Lonerism’

The Mountain Goats, ‘Transcendental Youth’ ALEX WHELAN

RACHEL CABAKOFF Tame Impala’s psychedelic, ‘60s sound isn’t the only thing that may draw you into their music for the first time. If you haven’t heard of the band yet, now is the time to check out Impala’s new album, Lonerism, which dropped last month.

The band could be compared to The Beatles, given its Woodstock-era pop sound, but it adds a little something extra that gives the music a more modern feel.

Its debut album, Innerspeaker, came out in 2010 and Impala’s sound began to resonate across the U.S. During this time the band toured alongside MGMT, opening for them and christening people’s ears who hadn’t heard its sound yet. Those lucky enough to attend these shows got an earful of musical inspiration.

The band’s music sounds aged, almost as if the band members are using outdated recording instruments to make that “one too many times played” record sound.

It almost makes you feel as if you’re in a dreamland or another dimension. This sound can be heard throughout all of Tame Impala’s songs, but it’s especially distinguishable in the song “Sun’s Coming Up.” It begins with a piano solo, and light, echoing vocals enter the song as the bass stays strong with a spacey pattern, ending with fuzzy waves and sounds like someone handling the microphone then cutting out. It’s almost like someone picking the needle off a record player once the album has finished.

The band’s style resonates throughout this new album especially in the song,

Transcendental Youth once again proves that The Mountain Goats are one of the few bands in indie rock that can get away with writing the same song over and over.

That’s not to say every tracksounds alike. It’s just that, 20 years ago, John Darnielle was lucky enough to figure out the kind of lyrically-driven, acoustic character pieces he was interested in. He’s continued to write them ever since.

Ultimately a song like “Harlem Roulette,” which chronicles the death of singing wunderkind Frankie Lymon in haunting detail, could have fit in just as easily on the 2000 album The Coroner’s Gambit. That doesn’t make a line like “the loneliest people in the whole wide world are the ones you’re never going to see again” hit any less hard, especially when delivered by the warm, friendly timbre of Darnielle’s bleat. It’s refreshing to hear the pathological empathy he brings to each and every one of his characters hasn’t depleted over the years.

It would be a disservice to Transcendental Youth to ignore the other large factor in its charm, which is the small army of horns that adorn the majority of the tracks.

For all his commitment to his template, Darnielle has never been one to shy away from tinkering a bit with instrumentation of his songs, including Casio keyboards and drum machines as early as 1992’s The Hound Chronicles.

Variation proves to be as welcome now as it was back then. The horn section adds a welcome sense of longing and plaintive isolation to songs like “White Cedar” and “In Memory Of Satan,” almost calling attention to the subtle complexities of

hen it comes to the geographical variation of rap music, it’s always been the West Coast versus the East Coast.

Timeless imagery comes to mind, embodied

by Tupac Shakur’s “California Love” and Biggie Smalls asking “Who Shot Ya?” But it’s 2012, and young rap can now come from anywhere. Machine Gun Kelly’s holding it down for Cleveland, Macklemore hails from Seattle and Black Hippy’s Kendrick Lamar is coming straight outta Compton.

With the exception of Kanye, the Midwest can go largely unnoticed. Donald Pullen, the 21-year-old Chicagoan rapper better known as Rockie Fresh, is about to change all that.

“There is different stuff on every block there [in Chicago], and it makes it all really diverse, really relatable,” Pullen said, explaining the recent wave of young Chicago rap that carries on the torch of predecessors, like Lupe Fiasco and Common.

While this influx of 808-heavy beats and conscious rhyming is a trend that’s beginning to define the loose Chicago sound, Pullen said he feels that it’s the lyricism that’s most important to retain, regardless of how Chicago rap evolves.

“We just gotta talk about what we know, but that’s what’s great about guys like Nelly, Jay-Z,” he said. “They’re some of the biggest hustlers of all time because they just stayed true to themselves.”

“Music to Walk Home By.” It can be compared to the song “Solitude Is Bliss” from the previous album, with a similar bass tune in the background, the same upbeat constant thump that backs up the song — but with a refreshing new feel to it.

The album is available on iTunes, and their website, tameimpala.com, has the band’s most recent updates about upcoming shows and new music.

MOUNTAIN GOATS from page 4

Darnielle’s chord changes and melody-crafting. A good highlight would be “Cry For Judas” where the descending vocals of the chorus form a call-and-response with the horn section to evoke the titular cry in all its glory.

Ultimately, Transcendental Youth features little in the way of classic standouts, with the exception of “Harlem Roulette” and perhaps “In Memory of Satan,” but the band’s goal here seems to be more expansive than normal.

The best example of this is the two-part “Spent Gladiator” suite, two separate songs placed at either end of the sequence which land twice as smoothly when considered together.

Opener “Amy aka Spent Gladiator 1” features the refrain “just stay alive,” but by the time Darnielle is singing that same refrain in “Spent Gladiator 2,” nine tunes of the confused condition of mankind have passed that evoke the ideas from the first song with a newfound sense of reflection.

It’s these two songs that embody Transcendental Youth’s themes of alienation and struggle are best understood. Each side of the same fundamental fear works in tandem to illuminate just how far we’ve come and just how far we’ve yet to go.

Pullen’s more than appreciative of the “big brother”that Rick Ross has played in his come-up.

comes to my walk.”

On his three-week adventure to New York Fashion Week, he walked for the likes of Patrik Ervell, Siki Im, Duckie Brown, Public School, John Bartlett and even in the renowned Parsons MFA Runway show.

The schedule during fashion week was grueling for him, however.

“Those three weeks were exhausting,” Von Isser said. “Having a show was just a small part of the day. I had to wake up to do 13 castings in one day. On top of it all, I was in school at the time as well, so I would have to come home and still do homework.”

For three weeks he continued this. The first there were pre-castings.

The second week consisted of castings and fittings for the clothing that was to be worn in the runway shows — and then, finally, the third week mostly consisted of shows.

“I wish I would have been able to see some of the shows that week, but I think most of them are invite-only,” said Von Isser. “Even if I wanted to go, my schedule was extremely tight. I didn’t have time to go out.”

His payment for working that week was a great deal of chic clothing from the designers, as most of the New York shows pay in trade. If he isn’t walking a runway for his clothing, Von Isser said he loves to thrift shop around Tucson. Even on a cheap college student budget, he still has fashion influences.

“I really look up to Paul Newman, James Dean and Robert Redford,” he said. “I try to keep things pretty classic and minimalist. Things are well-fitted but never tight.”

Though he wasn’t able to attend some of the other shows, his favorite looks were Duckie Brown and Public School. There may be a chance to see his face at the London Fashion Week shows as well, and he is hoping to do New York Fashion Week again. Who would have thought that a trip to Buffalo Exchange could result in a complete whirlwind of fashion adventures for years to come?

have deals ranging from discounts on alcohol to special food deals. The lowest prices for alcohol is $2, according to the bar crawl’s Facebook page, for any kind of beer at The Fix, five year plan shooters at the Auld Dubliner and Bud Light and kamikaze shots at Fuku Sushi.

Food wise, Silver Mine Subs is offering 20 percent off all subs and Eat-A-Pita will have $5 pitas.

The Fix and No Anchovies are new additions to last year’s bar crawl, according to Owen Brennan, an accounting senior and wristband distributor. In addition, the organizers are trying to make getting wristbands easier than last year.

“The line for wristbands was really congested last year,” Brennan said. “This year it will be more organized and move faster.”

Michelle Vock, a management information systems, marketing and entrepreneurship senior and wristband distributor, said it’s one of the few opportunities dedicated to the senior class hanging out and celebrating as a group. “[It’s] the deals, the people and the execution and convenience,” she added.

“If I ever get caught in Arizona using a fake ID again I will receive felony charges,” Chambers added.

Staying true has worked wonders for Pullen thus far.

Having been recently signed to a deal with Rick Ross’ Maybach Music Group, Pullen is the youngest in a stacked crew alongside Wale, Meek Mill, French Montana and Stalley, among others. The grind that Pullen experienced is a lesson in motivation.

“I think my career is a symbolism of that climb,” he said.

“People have seen me going from just being a mixtape artist to getting my first deal.”

And in the scope of modern rap, that deal with Maybach is huge. Pullen’s more than appreciative of the “big brother” role that Rick Ross has played in his come-up as Rockie Fresh. When it comes to the often ruthless rap industry, it’s best to have a label owner like Ross backing your sound in the numbers you pull.

“When he broke down my record [2012’s Driving 88 mixtape], it made me understand he was appreciating the way I move as an artist over my fan base at the time,” Pullen said.

Though Maybach itself is varied in its offerings, from Rick Ross’ cocaine-and-party anthems to Wale’s smooth D.C. flow, Pullen fits a previously unfulfilled niche — both with his geographical allegiance, his age and his sound.

“I’m the youngest member of the team, I’m the only Chicago representative and right now I’m just adding my piece to it,” he said. “I feel like I have a different flavor that allows me to have a role.”

faced no legal consequences. She said she feels that the primary reason why she used her fake ID was peer pressure, and that the consequence, though not as severe as it could have been, still wasn’t worth it.

“I knew it wouldn’t have worked, but I still went for it anyway,” she said.

“I was still two months from my 21st.”

If you are a student who wishes to avoid the possible repercussions of being caught using a fake ID, stick to the frat and house parties. At least there you won’t be dropping such hefty amounts of cash to get equally intoxicated.

Homeward bound Three Illinois-bred Wildcat hockey players return to their home state to take on the Illini JAMES KELLEY

H

omecoming will be early for a few members of the Arizona hockey team.

Senior goalie David Herman, senior forward Jared Lowell and freshman defenseman Bryan Drazner will play in their home state when the Wildcats face No. 11 Illinois on Friday and Saturday. All three made the Wildcats’ 23-man travel roster for the trip.

“Herman is a senior from Illinois, been here a long time, through the trials and tribulations of Icecat hockey to what’s now Wildcat hockey,” head coach Sean Hogan said. “I know he’s excited, so is Jared Lowell.”

Herman is hoping to get some bragging rights at home. His dad helped broadcast Illini games in college after a career-ending injury.

“I’m hoping to make the trip and see some action there, and hopefully get my team a victory,” Herman said.

This year Herman and Drazner have not played yet and Lowell has an assist. Last season, Herman played in 14 games, had a 5-7-1 record, a 3.90 goals against average and a 0.89 save percentage. Lowell was fourth on the team in points with 27 and had eight goals and 19 assists.

Lowell has never played at the University of Illinois Ice Arena, but has seen a few games there and has played with some players on the fighting Illini.

“It’s going to be a nice environment for me to go back to, playing against a bunch of the guys that I played with growing up,” Lowell said. “Chad Himley and a couple other guys on their team I played high school hockey against and we used to always go at it.”

Hogan said that Illinois is one of the top five biggest states for hockey, and Herman, Drazner and Lowell said professional and youth hockey is big in the Land of Lincoln.

“In Chicago, there’s a rink every 15 minutes from each other,” Lowell said.

All three players are from the

suburbs of Chicago. Drazner is from Buffalo Grove, Herman is from Highland Park and Lowell is from Northbrook.

Chicagoland is also Wildcat Country to an extent.

“Chicago has a lot of U of A graduates living there,” Herman said. “I know of sports bars that are back there that any time a U of A game is on, it’s strictly UA people

— and so there is a big networking crowd of alumni there that allow for connections when we graduate.”

If Arizona does well enough it might even make a return trip to Illinois this season since the national tournament will be at the the Edge Ice Arena in Bensenville, Ill.

games this year because of a case of mono, but Hogan expects him to play this weekend.

“He’s a difference maker right away,” Hogan said. “He’s one of the guys we brought in to make a difference, so we’re excited about him.”

Drazner said he got sick around Sept. 1 and feared missing the trip home.

“I was kind of nervous to start,” Drazner has missed all the Wildcats’

Drazner’s debut

Drazner said. “But I just knew if I took the time off — missing ASU was very difficult — but I knew that if I took the right steps to get back, then everything would work out. It has so far, so it’s been pretty good.”

The Wildcats’ practice in Chandler, Ariz., on Oct. 10 was Drazner’s fourth skate. He started practicing two weeks ago and missed Arizona’s first four games.

Bye, bye, bye: What Basketball’s start will force UA will the Wildcats do football to compete for attention with their week off?

Arizona football has its first, and last, Saturday of the regular season free. What will the team be doing with its day off?

“Having this Saturday [off], this is like gold … I’ll probably gain five pounds and just sit and watch football all day.”

— head coach Rich Rodriguez

Rich Rodriguez

“I’m trying to get back, getting into the training room, trying to get healthy. I know a lot of us guys are [banged up] but we’ll be back.”
