Moon Taxi jams out for 10-year anniversary Jenna Butz Arts & Culture Editor

Millie Tunnel Engagement Editor Nashville indie rock band Moon Taxi celebrated their 10-year anniversary in Knoxville this weekend with two nights at the Mill & Mine. The band performed their signature hits paired with well-rehearsed covers and high energy jamming.

Friday, Feb. 24 Moon Taxi celebrated their two-night birthday extravaganza by doing what they do best: jamming out.

Volume 133 Issue 29

Moon Taxi stuck to their classics Friday night, playing songs from their studio albums to dedicated fans. Each song – despite the band’s catalog spanning a decade – felt fresh each time due to each band member’s musical talent.

It is easy to forget that most of the band met at and graduated from Belmont University in Nashville, a school known for its music program.

Seeing Moon Taxi show off their musical chops proves just how much they know about what they are doing.

Each member’s ability to adapt, change instruments, showcase a secret talent or just make jam sessions that happened every song feel like an entirely new experience kept the performance fresh – especially for longtime fans who were seeing Moon Taxi play for the fifth or 10th time.

Favorites like “River Water,” “Southern Trance” and “Morocco” had fans dancing all night long (and dudes almost fist pumping their elbows into my eye, but I am not bitter), and fans from all sectors of Knoxville. Frat dudes, hikers, art majors and whoever went to this show proved that Moon Taxi is music for everyone.

After chants and yells from the crowd for just “one more song,” Moon Taxi came back out to play a three-song encore, including their now signature cover of “Rocket Man” by Elton John with keyboardist Wes Bailey taking lead vocals.

Once again, Moon Taxi left Knoxvillians in a daze after their energetic and talented performance. - Jenna Butz See MOON TAXI on Page 3

UT receives praise in Princeton Review Gabriela Szymanowska Contributor

Tuition may be expensive, but according to a study done by the Princeton Review students can expect that money back from their careers and possibly more.

In the Princeton Review’s “Colleges That Pay You Back: The 200 Schools That Give You the Best Bang for Your Buck” 2017 edition, UT is profiled as being affordable and provides valuable services for students.

“Yeah, I think it is a lot of money, but the amount of resources that we have here and the number of teachers that really do care about our education and care about our specialized instruction, it really makes it worth it,” Haley Retterer, senior in vocal performance, said.

The Princeton Review used a set of 40 data points that covered academics, financial aid, costs, debts and career data to profile universities. It also calculated a total Return-on-Investment rating, which compiled surveys done by alumni about their careers through April 2016 and gave each university a score. The ROI score for UT was 86 out of 100.

The review specifically mentioned the Center for Career Development.

“It felt like it gave us some recognition for doing good work, and hopefully we can do even more

THE DAILY BEACON STAFF EDITORIAL

of that,” Stephanie Kit, director of the Center for Career Development, said.

The Center for Career Development helps students choose a major, apply for internships and provides job resources such as the online portal, Hire-a-VOL. The career center last year had more than 16,000 students using its services, including an increase in seniors. In 2015, the Career Services staff counseled about 55 percent of seniors.

In 2016, about 57 percent of seniors went to an in-person event such as a job fair and 80 percent used services like Hire-a-VOL. “We’ve been trying to really become more of a place to help students make connections with alumni and employers. Really helping them get exposure to career fields earlier on,” Kit said.

Two new additions that the center is working on is hiring a new staff member for internship development and expanding an alumni database that was started last year.

The database is of alumni that have volunteered to share their experiences. Students can meet with a staff member at the center and try to find contacts in their field of interest to set up interviews or do shadowing experiences.

“For whatever reason, some students reach their senior year and say, ‘I wish I had known that you were here,’” Kit said. “So, we just want to get the word out that we’re ready to help students wherever they are and with whatever type of career help they need.”

Knoxville Scottish Rite provides

donations, community service Kaylie Hofer

Staff Writer The big gray building next to Volunteer Hall is more than just for show – it houses the Knoxville Scottish Rite, which has helped organize community service events for more than 60 years.

The Knoxville Scottish Rite is a non-profit organization housed next to UT’s campus since 1955. The organization is a part of a larger group of organizations known as the Masonic Fraternity. Knoxville Scottish Rite seeks to help the community by providing items to those in need, including shoes and medical supplies.

“Working through local schools and school systems, we provide shoes and socks to children in need. This program was the origin of our foundation, and we have been providing shoes since 1960. We also provide medical equipment for families who might not otherwise afford items, such as hospital beds, walkers and wheelchairs,” Robert Beam, the secretary of Knoxville Scottish Rite, said. “These are lent at no cost to the families for as long as needed, the only stipulation being to please return it when no longer needed. Most of our items are donated by members.”

The organization also provides 12 $1,000 scholarships to juniors and seniors per year.

Students must be enrolled in a four-year college full-time to qualify for the scholarships. They have distributed over $518,000 since 1988 in programs including the scholarships.

It also supports local ROTC programs via the distribution of awards to East Tennessee units, such as medals, ribbons and certificates. Those units then choose the award recipients based on academic excellence among other factors.

The Knoxville Scottish Rite provides a special speech and hearing program for young

children that was created by the parent organization, the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Southern Jurisdiction. The organization provides funding for speech therapy for children between the ages of 1-8 whose families are in need. The therapy is administered through the UT Speech and Hearing Center.

“We are very proud of our association with the University of Tennessee and have worked to partner with UTK in different ways,” Beam said. “Aside from the Speech and Hearing program, Scottish Rite has invited the University of Tennessee Chamber Singers, under the direction of conductor Angela Batey, to participate in our annual Memorial Service for several years.

“We also recently partnered with two UT fraternities to provide relief for the families affected by the Sevier County fires and donations were made by residents of Volunteer Hall as well.”

The only way to become a member of Knoxville Scottish Rite is through an invitation and they hold two initiations a year for new members. The organization also holds regular meetings to discuss objectives within communities.

“It is a membership devoted to assisting those in need within the community. I have never met more beneficent and charitable men than those I call my brothers within this organization,” Derek Adamson, member of the Knoxville Scottish Rite, said.

The Knoxville Scottish Rite is responsible for providing community services in 24 counties in East Tennessee, including Knox, Anderson, Monroe and Sevier counties.

“We usually don’t make a spectacle of our efforts, so most people probably don’t realize how important the Knoxville Scottish Rite is,” Adamson said. “Rest assured, we are doing our best through financial means and labor to better the lives of disadvantaged people and places regardless of politics, race, sex or religion.”

ARTS&CULTURE

MOON TAXI continued from Page 1 Saturday, Feb. 25 After much anticipation, Moon Taxi finally came on stage around 10:15 p.m., opening with “All the Rage.” It’s a song that utilizes each instrument and vocal in the band. Lights shot out in various spots behind the band, which illuminated the stage and added instant excitement.

Every member of Moon Taxi came out with an abundance of energy, bringing the patient crowd to life. With each song came a guitar solo and even a piano solo. These solos made everyone in the audience want to dance all night. Throughout the night, the solos increased along with the vitality of each band member. By the end of the night even keyboardist Wes Bailey was standing up, slamming on his keys with so much soul.

Along with the songs from their most current album “Daybreaker,” they satisfied the eager crowd with classics like “River Water” and “Morocco.” During “River Water,” the disco balls at the top of the venue shined bright, displaying an increase of lights all around.

Lead vocalist Trevor Terndrup slowed the night down just a little by bringing out the harmonica for “Gunflower.” They followed this song with a groovy cover of “Johnny B.

Monday, February 27, 2017 • The Daily Beacon Goode,” which brought a sense of jazz into the mix.

The highlight of the night though was the mashup of the fan favorite “Mercury” and “Rocky Top.” Everyone on in the crowd sang out loud and proud to the Volunteer anthem, while the lights turned a bright orange on the stage.

Moon Taxi did an excellent job of adding a Southern flare to their indie rock persona.

Every song had the audience swaying and ready to go all night long. They played for a full two hours, and by the time they were done, the audience did not want them to leave.

I saw Moon Taxi perform four times, and with each performance, the experience just keeps getting better. Simply listening to them online does not do their instrument or their vocal abilities justice. It has been a blast watching this band develop their skills immensely the past four years. As a current Knoxville resident, I am honored they decided to celebrate their 10-year anniversary with the Volunteer family. - Millie Tunnel Wes Bailey (bottom) and Trevor Terndrup (top) play in indie rock band, Moon Taxi, which performed at The Mill & Mine on Feb. 25, 2017.

Margo Price, Jonny Fritz get audience singing, dancing along at Bijou concert Wyatt Miner

Contributor On Feb. 23, the Bijou Theatre featured country artist Margo Price, adding her performance to a long list of successful shows.

I was shocked at how much I enjoyed this concert. The atmosphere was great, as per usual at the Bijou, and I could tell that everyone around me was thoroughly pleased with the show. Before that night, I had no clue what Price or her opener Jonny Fritz sounded like.

When I left, I had no doubt that I would never forget these two fantastic acts.

Jonny Fritz opened the show in outstanding fashion. His soulful voice filled the room and his humor had the whole audience smiling. He came on to the stage with just a fiddle player and a salmon colored suit. The audience took a liking to Fritz; so much so that he received a standing ovation.

The crowd was warmed up and ready for Price.

Many of the audience members cheered because they knew what was on the way. First,

the band came out and prepared themselves.

Then Price walked out and the room filled with joyful cheers.

One of the first songs that Price played was “Tennessee Song.” Everyone in the theater was dancing in their seats, including me.

The band played cohesively and all of their individual sounds blended together to create a great first-time listening experience.

She had several tributes throughout her show, including tributes to the late Merle Haggard, Dolly Parton and a personal friend of hers. When Price performed Dolly Parton’s “Jolene,” the whole room sang along in unison.

Overall, I was thoroughly impressed with the individual performances. Price sang wonderfully and the guitar and drum solos left the audience wanting more. The band had great stage presence and is definitely a talented group.

Even if country music is not your forte, I still recommend seeing Margo Price and Jonny Fritz. They are both remarkable performers, and they are sure to bring a smile to your face during their shows.

Front Row Review: ‘The Busy Body’ Emily Dembrak Contributor

At the opening night of “The Busy Body: A Comedy” the cast and crew stunned the audience with their impressive talent, putting on an unforgettable production and bringing everyone to their feet by the end.

I will admit that when I read the synopsis before the show, I had my doubts that a story written so long ago could possibly be funny for anyone living in modern times.

However, from the very start of the program I realized I was severely mistaken.

This self-proclaimed “farce with a purpose” empowers all women while simultaneously making everyone laugh.

For a moment, due to the immersive talent of the cast and crew, I forgot I was in Tennessee at all. Suddenly, I was not in Knoxville but rather 18th century England.

As soon as the performers walked on stage, I noticed how beautiful every costume was, with each character having their own unique look. Even the smallest of details, such as the buttons on male actors’ coats, was fascinating to me. I commend costume designer Marianne Custer for her ability to capture the essence of each character’s personality in such an intriguing, visual way.

Another element that captured my attention was the ability of the set to double as a prop. With each scene change, the background changed as well, and the main characters themselves would aid in moving the set. The simplicity of the background was subtle enough to highlight what was going on in the show without being too bland.

After getting over my initial interest in what the actors were wearing and what was behind them, I was struck by the pure talent that flowed off the stage.

My personal favorite was the character of Marplot, played by Charles Pasternak.

His ability to include the audience in any scene he was a part of made myself and everyone else in attendance burst out with laughter.

However, the cumulative talent of the lead female roles should not be discounted either. Charlotte Munson and Lauren Pennline, who played Miranda and Isabinda respectively, fully captured the power of their characters while never losing the comedic side of the show.

Overall, it was clear from the start that an immense amount of work went into this production. The ability of the actors to draw a smile from every audience member was impressive and unforgettable.

“The Busy Body: A Comedy” directed by John Sipes will play at the Carousel Theater in Clarence Brown from Feb. 22–Mar. 12.

Crystal Fairy - “Crystal Fairy” for three decades are on showcase here, and it really serves to enhance Gender Bender’s no holds vocal styles – her sweet croonturned-vicious bark displays a range that makes her one of the most interesting singers in rock today. This is exemplified from the start of the album with “Chiseler.”

Overall, “Crystal Fairy” is a great album. It does not blend in too much with the band’s original sounds. Instead, it sounds like a new sound and band altogether. If you are looking for some great Bikini Kill-esque rock that makes you feel like a badass, look no further.

Crystal Fairy pits together At the DriveIn’s Omar Rodríguez-López, Le Butcherettes’ Gender Bender and Melvins’ members Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover to create a new alternative rock “supergroup.” The quartet’s self-titled debut album does not put any new twists on the original groups’ sounds, but instead aims to be complementary to their styles.

“Crystal Fairy” brings in Gender Bender’s dynamic vocal style on top of the Melvin’s iconic rhythms. The same brand of heady distortion Melvins fans have come to adore

AFTER

This new band is more of a culmination of three other popular groups: Le Butcherettes, Melvins and At the Drive-In. This is obviously a group of talented people, so I am excited to see what they have put together.

I love the garage band feel of some of the songs; it really gives the music a ‘90s feel. Plus, Teri Gender Bender’s vocals really remind me of the girl punk groups that I love so much.

This album feels like a throwback album, which is not bad. Clearly each member has had time to know their strengths, which resulted in a strong new album.

Xiu Xiu-“Forget” American experimental group Xiu Xiu released their 13th album with “Forget.”

The group was formed by singer-songwriter Jamie Stewart, and since its formation in 2002, he has remained the only original member. While the group has transcended genre lines with past albums, Xiu Xiu signifies a return to pop-oriented music with “Forget.”

Xiu Xiu’s characteristic strangeness is present throughout the album from the beginning. But, more importantly, “Forget”

solidifies Xiu Xiu as one of the 21st century’s most inventive noise-rock groups and reminds listeners that the group has an ear for catchy hooks and a knack for writing crippling emotional lyrics. This is amplified in tracks like “Get Up” and “Hay Choco Bananas.”

Listeners should forget (see what I did there) any pre-conceived notions about this album. Do not assume this is just another catchy pop album. There is hidden emotion behind these synth beats.

AFTER

It feels like I am listening to three different genres at once, and it is amazing. I might have fallen in love after the first track “The Call.”

At first, I thought this album was really confusing. It was pop, rap and rock all at once. But, as the album continued, I found the hard emotions swirling within each track. This might just be my new favorite experimental album.

I am a bit of an art rock fangirl, so even though I’ve never heard of Xiu Xiu, I was more than ready to listen to what they’ve got.

MEN’S TENNIS

Men’s tennis splits doubleheader, conference play ahead Cory Sanning

Contributor Looking to open the outdoor season on a high note, the Vols were in for a rude awakening Saturday morning.

The No. 3 ranked Wake Forest Demon Deacons marched into the Goodfriend Tennis Center on Saturday and handled the No. 34 ranked Volunteers by a score of 6-1.

Despite valiant efforts all around, Tennessee was unable to stop the late onslaught brought on by one of the top teams in the nation.

Senior Jack Schipanski and junior Luis Valero combined to topple the No. 1 ranked doubles tandem of Christian Seraphim and Skander Mansouri.

The win marked their 40th victory together and their first against a top-10 opponent this season.

“It’s a little bittersweet, honestly,” Schipanski said. “It felt really good to get that doubles win, but the end result wasn’t what we wanted.”

Tennessee would clinch the doubles point after Scott Jones and Timo Stodder staved off two match points to defeat Borna Gojo and Alan Gadjiev.

The Vols found themselves up 1-0, but Wake Forest rattled off six unanswered points, dominating singles play and handing the Tennessee consecutive losses for the first time since play resumed in January.

Heading into the locker room, coach Sam Winterbotham’s message to the team was plain and simple.

“The message has remained consistent all year: just compete,” Winterbotham said. “You have to give Wake Forest credit, they played well.”

The Vols did not have much time to move on from the loss.

Just an hour later, Tennessee welcomed the Lipscomb Bisons to town. Same place, only a different result.

Fueled by the sting of falling short to Wake Forest, the Vols came back with a vengeance, shutting Lipscomb out 7-0 en route to another emphatic home win, their seventh of the year.

Carrying on their tradition of strong doubles plays, Schipanski and Valero would go on to defeat Lipscomb’s combination of Alejandro Manzanares and Daniel Cardenas, 6-3.

While Stodder and Jones would fall to Victor Chaw and Jorge Ortegon on Court Two 6-3, the tandem of sophomore Srdjan Jakovljevic and senior Sunay Bhat sealed the doubles point for Tennessee, defeating Philippe Courteau and Thais Minet by a score of 6-3.

The Vols brought that same momentum into singles play, with Stodder defeating Manzanares 6-2, 7-6(5) and Valero downing Chaw 1-6, 7-6(3) and (11-9).

Jones would go on to claim his singles match on Court Three, while Schipanski han-

Adrien Terricabras • The Daily Beacon dled Courteau by a score of 6-1, 6-2.

Jakovljevic and Luca Wiedenmann also came out on top in their respective matches, effectively sweeping the round for the Vols.

With Tennessee traveling to Lexington and Nashville next week to begin Southeastern Conference play against Kentucky and Vanderbilt, Winterbotham is certainly confident about his team’s chances.

“It’s the most fun part of the year,” Winterbotham said. “I believe we can beat anybody in this conference, and I mean that.”

Twelve opponents remain, and the only thing standing between Tennessee and an SEC tournament spot is a tough rival opponent.

The Volunteers (8-4) will next travel north to face the Kentucky Wildcats on Friday, March 3 at 5 p.m.

MEN’S BASKETBALL

Slow start cripples Vols, no recovery in worst loss of season Rob Harvey

Asst. Sports Editor On Wednesday night against the Vanderbilt Commodores, the Tennessee men’s basketball never led and trailed in the game for all but the first three seconds.

On Saturday, the Vols were better, they led for a total of 11 seconds in the game, but due to another slow start trailed for 37:51 against South Carolina and were blown out 82-55, their worst loss of the season.

For the second consecutive game, the Vols got off to a slow start and it proved costly.

Tennessee scored the first bucket of the game on a Robert Hubbs III jumper. However, after that it was all Gamecocks. The Vols would hang around for a little bit, but a South Carolina 16-2 run that put them up 24-9 would all but seal the deal.

“It just happens sometimes (starting slow),” Hubbs said. “We just have to find a way to not start off slow and get in the rhythm

of the game.”

After showing no signs of life for most of the first half, the Vols did make a comeback and cut the lead, which got up to 18, to just eight at the half. The Vols traded buckets to start the second half and had the lead to within four, 38-34, before the wheels fell off.

South Carolina ended the game on a 44-21 run to finish the game and seal the victory.

Coming into the game averaging close to 77 points per game, the Tennessee offense was mostly silent. The Vols shot just 33 percent from the field in the game, 10 percent less than their season average. The Vols were also 1-13 from the three-point line, a poor 8 percent.

Part of the reason for the offensive struggle was due to the lack of offensive production from freshman Grant Williams. He scored just eight points in the game and was frustrated down low for most of the game.

“They just make it tougher on mindset, I think. They know how physical we were playing, and they tried to match our intensity

and they have been doing a good job at that,” Williams said.

Another concern for the Vols offense was the lack of assists in the games. The Vols recorded just three assists in the game, a season low, while turning the ball over 19 times.

The Vols caused 18 turnovers of their own but were not able to capitalize off of them.

“Every time we went in the game, we went backwards, whether it was defensively or offensively, just mishandling the ball,” Barnes said. “It’s not a good feeling sitting there and wondering if your point guard is going to get it across half court. There’s no reason to handle it like we are handling the ball right now.”

The Vols were led in the game by Hubbs who totaled 16 points. Hubbs started slow but when the Vols made their comeback, had the offense run through him. However, besides Hubbs, none of the Vols scored in double figures.

Because of the slow start against Vanderbilt and Jordan Bowden being out due to illness, the Vols went with a new lineup on Saturday.

Freshman Kwe Parker and redshirt freshman Lamonte Turner took the place of Bowden and Jordan Bone in the lineup. However, the change proved not helpful as the Vols got off to a slow start again and Tuner and Parker combined for just seven points and five turnovers.

The loss for the Vols puts them at a record of 15-14, 7-9 in the conference, and all but eliminates them from contention for an at large bid in the NCAA tournament. The Vols could still make the tournament by winning the SEC tournament, however, if the play of the last two games continues, a tournament championship is unlikely.

“We’re going to regroup,” Barnes said. “We have two games left and then a conference tournament. We just need to get everyone playing up to the same level.”

The Vols will be back in action on Wednesday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, as they take on the LSU Tigers. That game will tipoff at 7 p.m. and can be seen on the SEC Network.

How to beat Str8ts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These QHHG WR EH ÂżOOHG LQ ZLWK QXPEHUV WKDW complete a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;straightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to see how â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;straightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; are formed.
