Music provides an escape for SFA students ntertainment is the one ele- ment in life which is a diversion from the pressures of school. It is amusing and allows the student to let loose and relax. Perhaps the most popular form of entertainment among high school students is music. Listening to your favorite music,whether its live or not,will always make you feel better. There is nothing like coming home from a long day at school and putting on that great album. While a favorite album can provide an emotional lift, nothing can beat a concert at one of Austin's clubs or auditoriums. Some of the bands rocking Austin's hot spots this year were ZZ Top, The Police, Robert Plant, joe King Carrasco, Ioe Ely, The Big Boys, jimmy Buffet, jerry Ieff Walker, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and Cool and The Gang. Austin is fast becoming one of the top entertainment cities in the United States with the rise of stars like Ioe King and joe Ely, The new Joe Ely Album Hi Res is sure to be a hit with singles like Shakin' the Night and Lipstick in the Night , Ely began a tour of the U.S. with The Clash in May. Austin has been a well-known music I was very surprised to hear we had been nominated. I mean, my record up against Gatemouth Brown and B.B. King. - Stevie Ray Vaughan city for many years. When the Kinks went on tour in 1982, they played in only two places in the US., one of them being Austin. Stevie Ray Vaughan brought recog- nition to Austin when he was nominated for a Grammy. He received the honor in the traditional blues category for Texas Flood. He lost to B.B. King's Blues 'n jazz. Vaughan said, I was very surprised to hear we had been nominated. l mean, my record up against Gatemouth Brown and B.B. King. No matter what type of music you like, from Punk to Disco, you can find in Austin which plays your styles.
