Many of the bands were from the Best of Boston Series and had competed with many for the stature that they held. Just to name a few, “Three Colors , Hearts on Fire , Salem 66 and Sally and the Sophistocatz had great performances. Loose Caboose provided lively reggea which brought out Bob Marley supporters fromt the crowd. Barrence Whitfield and the Savages visited WPI after their tour of London to show WPI what rhythm and blues was all about. Farnum Street stopped by from their many on- campus gigs to give WPI a look at engineering talent. Finally, Rick Berlin - The Movie was brought in to the obvious approval of the many WPI followers ( groupies ) of this quickly rising band. Quality live entertainment could definitely be found in Gompei ' s. Unfortunately, a large deficit in funds for Gompei ' s Place left no money for a full-time manager and lead to it ' s closing in D-term, except for a few SOCCOM events. New options are being looked into, such as moving the snack bar there. Hopefully Gompei ' s Place will survive. Above: WPI ' s own Farnum Street. Left: Sally and the Sophistocatz are a cool motown band. Events

Rick Berlin has a great style of his own. tf-osnfeet 4, ‘PC ce The challenge for Gompei ' s Entertainment Committee of SOCCOM in the past year was enormous. With memories of WPI ' s Pub as it used to be, alive only in the minds of the senior class (Happy Hours every Tuesday and Friday night- where all the campus, teachers alike, could be found together relaxing as friends), SOCCOM focused on providing a new look to the old Pub. To compliment the recent renovations and new name (Gompei ' s Place), SOCCOM decided that Gompei ' s should be a place for quality entertainment and a variety of good food and drink (though non-alcoholic). While competing with Rush, Greek Weekend and Homecoming made things slow at first, the campus began to realize that top bands which one might pay a five dollar cover charge for downtown, were being brought to WPI for as little as one dollar admission.
