The competition was tough and brutal as groups such as Loverboy, ACXDC, and the B-52's lined up against each other for a head-on battle. The battle roared as 10 airbands gave their all to being the toughest jammers in the school. - Senior Neal Denno, lead vocal for the winning group Firequest, who sang Loverboys, Lucky V, and crazy. Senior Brad Moulds, lead guitarist for the same group said, lt's better than dancing, fe Ones, air sang for the simple reason of letting it all hang out, it's something to do to get wild f a lot wilder and crazier. , For the few female groups that were entered, craziness was the main inspiration. Seniors Monica Bauer lead guitarist for the Hangers, who played the B-52's Rocker Lobster played - because,lt's jagged and I get off watching the audience spaz out. Another player for the Hangers, senior Kim Frey, keyboards, plays because, lt has always been my fantasy to be a rock n roll star. AQ The judges graded the groups over five areas on a scale of one to A 10. The areas covered originality, precision, authenticity, entertain- H ment and energy level. Patricia Olais, art teacher, felt, The whole ir concert was outstanding but more variety would have been nice. Another judge, Noel Sylvester, vocal instructor, really enjoyed it, nior Brad Moulds jams down to the beat of Loverboy's Lucky Ones . it iior Neal Denno electrifies the crowd as the lead singer in the group Fire- ' saying, lt was very well organized. The bands were really good and the students were more involved in this than anything else the last three or four years. So the newest craze at Newton High has come over with a bang or a bang your head! est. work by junior Brad Sneed. -1 .V A - f r - fi .. . , ..,- ,. W... V, ' its . , i K tl.
