The rest of the evening ran like a Kenny Loggins greatest hits album. Danny ' s Song preceded his current single, Whenever I Call You ' Friend ' . which sounded better than ever despite the ab- sence of Stevie Nicks. At this point the crowd was on its feet clapping and swaying to the music. During I Believe In Love the audience was urged to sing along. He closed with a 20 minute version of Angry Eyes. His lengthy finale, however, did not sat- isfy the crowd, which cheered him back for three encores, Easy Driver from his new album, Vahevala, and finally Celebrate Me Home. Jay H. Handelman fa £ f

Daddy ' s Back ' The Loggins Concert The mark of a truly great performer is his ability to turn a restless, bored and unre- sponsive audience into cheering en- thusiasts after just one number. Kenny Loggins is such a performer. Appearing Wednesday, October 18, at George Washington University ' s Smith Center, Loggins displayed various styles of music ranging from the mellow to hard rock, all of which won the crowd over. He opened with the title tune from his latest album, Nightwatch, then followed with ' Daddy ' s Back and a long version of Why Do People Lie? His new pieces have a jazzier sound than his earlier works, but it made little difference to the crowd. Loggins then turned to mellow sounds with a solo version of You Don ' t Know Me. In an effort to oblige and quiet the shouted requests, he played his famed House at Pooh Corner. 22

The A.U. Tavern: Eating Out is Fun A last psychology class held over wine and munchies. Catching a couple of beers while your computer program is running. Relaxing on a study break. Getting rowdy after midterms. The juke box competing with the T.V. Live bands on the weekends. A freshman sent flying across the room fol- lowed by his chair. And the food isn ' t bad either.
