Even by that time Amy had a reputation in the local music scene for being difficult and full of herself, and it seemed to be for good reason.


This is what I heard as well from people who played with them at the time. But since that was 15-20 years ago, I'm chalking it up to young age, ambition, immaturity, etc etc. I'm sure everyone involved is a completely different person now. They were just kids.

we were def at some of the same shows back in the day. between the local groups, Poynter's studio and the tooth and nail/solid state connections with bands like Zao and POD, the scene was pretty legit there for awhile. was never 100% my bag, outside Zao, but showed up all the same.


I'm sure we did! I was at a show just about every weekend back then. Man, I had some great times in Vino's and Juanita's. TNT Powerhouse was fun too, but there was nothing like the insane vibe at Vino's back then. Good times!
I followed them a little back in the day. I was more familiar with the drummer's other band (Living Sacrifice), and the drummer/vocalist John LeCompt's other band (Mindrage).

Ben recently talked about why he left in 2003. LINK He isn't super specific, but I'm guessing it was both creative differences and the pressure of playing Vino's monthly to being catapulted to international fame just got to everyone. Similiar stuff happened with other members. Rocky and John left the band in 2007 on not great terms.

Ty Storey has more SEC wins than Chad Morris.

Ty frickin Storey
I wasn't aware of that. How did we get out of that? Is his Patriots salary is above $150k?


Bielema's buyout of $320k a month runs through Dec 2020.

I think realistically the admin will want to wait until Dec 2020 to do anything, meaning CCM will be a lame duck coach for at least another year.
If there's one thing Harrison's known for, it's definitely underage smoking.

WaPo Report on NEA Police

Posted by BarkRuffalo on 7/12/18 at 1:01 pm
I didn't know about this story before it was picked up nationally. Well-written story worth a read. Anyone here know anything about this?

LINK

tl;dr a new Walnut Ridge cop (11 days on the job) tried to make quota by pulling a guy over. Cop got roid rage aggressive, roughed up the guy. Guy made an official complaint. The WRPD exonerated the cop, gave two guy two citations, and later filed suit against guy. Cop given verbal warning. JB Sun and NEA Report kept digging, got some FoIA requests for his body camera, but cover-up and run around given by WRPD, the WR mayor, and the city attorney. Videos come out and vindicate the guy.

Last years for comparison



EDIT: Press release on official website LINK

quote:

The Helmet. What’s new? The iconic Razorback helmet is returning to the historic “pearl cardinal” look, most recently sported during the Darren McFadden era. The Hogs had been wearing a “matte finish” helmet in recent years. While the “pearl cardinal” helmets have a bit more gloss to them, they do not have nearly the sheen seen on the “red chrome” helmets worn in the 2015 Liberty Bowl.

The Jersey. What’s new? Other than the actual jersey template from Nike being an updated version, the only modification to the jersey is the removal of the “white chest tusks.” This less cluttered look more prominently displays Razorbacks across the chest.

The Pants. What’s new? The pant stripe was moved up to connect at the waist as opposed to appearing mid leg in the most recent Razorback uniform.
