Joel Cruz, freshman, however, thought the concert was excelient Although Bishop was late, the lead- up band, Stillwater, managed to keep the mood of the audience with additional songs and extra long solos. Stillwateris drummer, Lacy Sebie, expressed a little disappointment in the size of the audience. Stillwater is accustomed to performing for audiences of 1,500 or more. gBut the audience was lgk'hmax College audiences are more sophisticated . . . ti enthusiastic, and that is what counts. College audiences are more sophisticated. They sit back and observe the music, where at a nightclub people are more loose and get involved in the musicf, he said. Each song that Stillwater presented reflected back on the groupis unconscious theme, having a good time. til Reserve the Right to be Crazy and ttDonit You Wanta Have a Good Time set the mood for Still- wateris hit song, tiMindbenderf which used voice boxes to give the effect of a talking guitar. Stillwater began about eight years ago, Sebie said, and the members are all from the same area. After a try at college life, the group started a band, he said. Bob Spearman, keyboard player for Stillwater, expressed an optimistic View of the future of rock and roll. Disco is going down with punk rock, Spearman said. Stillwater has had eight or nine bookings with Bishop and-they get along well, Sebie said. The first performer of the night, Michael J ordon, however, has had just one booking with the other two groups. Jordon, from Chicago, 111., coupled his guitar with harmonica pieces, achieving a down-home country style. The crowd was slow in response to songs such as uI Wish I Could Shimmy Like My Sister Kate, uWet Dog Blues? and itHow Could You Not Love a Guy Who Wrote a Song Like This? but eventually warmed up a little and were ready for the harder music of Stillwater and Elvin Bishop.
