Wagon Wheel

It's no secret that a lot of SMCM students are obsessed with the Old Crow Medicine Show Wagon Wheel.  But why???  When did this obsession begin?  Can any alumni shed some light on how long people have had major boners for this song???



Not sure where this sign is actually located, but I stole it from someone's tumblr.  Do yall think that we should have a 'wagon wheel dr' so that students can repeatedly steal it (via students stealing that scarecrow on route 5, RIP scarebro).

I guess Wagon Wheelies has a lot of common themes like 'going South' (via most students are from the North [via goddam Yankees]) and wanting to get 'it on' with a girlie (via sex). 

If yall check out Spotify there is a really sweet playlist of a bunch of Wagon Wheel covers that you can find here if yall are into that.

Do yall ever like to play this song to end the night/signal everyone to leave ur house???

Is hitchhiking 'cool' anymore?  Once I left my bicycle at the Green Door and kinda wanted to hitchhike my way there (via 2-3 miles) but ended up walking instead out of fear.

Maybe we all just wanted 2 get rocked like a waggony wheel???

Is Wagon Wheel our fight song via lack of football teams???

EDIT:  Also, that post a week or so about about cigarette buttz was supposed to have an image attached but it failed.  It was a picture of a cigarette butt holder on campus that was overflowing.

World Carnival Band Selection 2012

Looks like there is a list for the 2012 World Carnival Bands!  Do yall want to read my opinions of each of these bands???  If so continue reading \/ \/ \/


1. Biz Markie - He is on Yo Gabba Gabba which is cool and that song about a girl having just a friend but that friend was not actually just a friend.  He seems chill.
2. Raekwon - ???
3. RJD2 - RJD2 has a really great song (which is linked <----) that I have really liked for a long time, but never made the leap towards listening to any of his other stuff.  Not sure if he would be fun to dance to, can anyone confirm his dancability???
4. Holy F**k - I was really surprised/confused/excited when they came for CoffeeHouse a few semesters ago (college is all one blur) so I would not mind seeing them again
5. Ra Ra Riot - I tried to get into this band because they seemed similar to other bands that I was into but they never really impressed me
6. Chairlift - Probably a 'alt ski rock' band
7. Margot & the Nuclear So and So's - I think my roommate liked this band, they are probably 'hip'
8. Chester French - ???
9. Lights - I think this is a popular danceable band that I would support
10. Two Door Cinema Club - Some people like this group IDK
11. Electric Six - Electric sex???
12. Breathe Carolina - I have never listened to this band but I once shared a bed with someone who was obsessed with them, so there's that
13. Radiohead - I can't believe Radiohead is an option!!!


Wow cool. I should probably start writing for Pitchfork.  Last two years have been disappointing (via weather and short acts so maybe this year will be cooler (idc I don't think I'll be around yall).

Holy Fuck at Coffeehouse

Holy Fuck is going to be at CoffeeHouse tonight.   Awesome!  They are a pretty legit band and kinda expensive, but according to inside sources we got them on the cheap since they were already in the area.

Pretty cool electronic band.  They are rad.  Not much else to say.
