Celebrating 32 Years of the ADA
(07/26/22 4:04pm)
July 26th, 2022 is the 32nd anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The ADA was signed into law in 1990 and serves to prohibit discrimination based on disability by the government and in the workplace, sets the standards for equitable accommodations across the United States, and helps promote equal access to essential services for all United States citizens. Everyone deserves respect and equal access regardless of their ability and the passing of the ADA was one of the first steps towards achieving that. There is always more that needs to be done, and there are still many barriers to equal access and accessibility that disabled individuals have to overcome every day, but the passing of the ADA was an early piece of legislation that has set the course for accessibility and equity for those with disabilities.

Album Review: Stranger Fruit by Zeal & Ardor
(06/19/22 4:57pm)
June 19th is Juneteenth, which serves to commemorate the emancipation of African Americans that were enslaved, and is also frequently used to celebrate African American culture. While it is an important holiday to recognize and celebrate, many people don’t realize or acknowledge that it recognizes a very solemn and serious topic. Here at WUSC, we celebrate and acknowledge the emancipation from slavery and look to the progress that still needs to be made.
WUSC Pride
(06/09/22 2:52am)
June is Pride Month, which was created to celebrate the accomplishments of and advocate for inclusion and equity for all members of the LGBTQIA+ community. June was chosen as Pride Month to pay tribute to the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in New York, a major catalyst for today's gay rights movement. The LGBTQIA+ community has made undeniable contributions to music and to the United States as a whole, and it is important that these contributions and accomplishments are recognized and celebrated and that LGBTQIA+ individuals are able to be their authentic selves and live openly all year.

A Word on Phone Theft at Music Festivals
(05/19/22 11:05pm)
In my life, I have been to four music festivals. I attended one day of Music Midtown in 2014, one day of Shaky Knees in 2019, and the full weekend of Shaky Knees in 2021 and 2022. This year’s Shaky was the first time I had ever heard of a problem with phone theft, but apparently, it is a very common issue at these events.
Shaky Knees 2023: Lineup Predictions
(05/19/22 11:04pm)
2023 will be Shaky Knees’ 10th anniversary, which means it should be the greatest music festival of all time. I’ve made a list of ten artists/bands I would love to see make an appearance, ranging from who I believe to be most likely to least likely.
Shaky Knees 2022: Setlists
(05/19/22 11:03pm)
I wasn’t able to find all of them, but here are some of the setlists I heard over the weekend!
Top 10 Performances at Shaky Knees 2022
(05/19/22 11:03pm)
This was a band I was looking forward to seeing even though I wasn’t overly familiar with their music. I knew they were popular in the college radio scene, but I had no idea how great they would be live. Just listening to their stuff, you would not expect the crowd to be nearly as crazy as it was, but Hunny managed to get everybody off their feet and jumping around pretty effortlessly, which made for such a fun and memorable experience.
Shaky Knees 2022: Sunday Recap
(05/19/22 11:01pm)
The final day of 2022’s Shaky Knees sent us off with some of the best acts of the weekend. After Saturday, my body was bruised beyond belief from all the mosh pits, and I couldn’t wait for more.
Shaky Knees 2022: Saturday Recap
(05/19/22 10:59pm)
Day 2 of Shaky Knees was my most anticipated day of the weekend. Even though every day had a variety of artists I was dying to see live, Saturday took the cake pretty easily. The Regrettes, Amyl and The Sniffers, Japanese Breakfast, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are some of my favorite bands out right now, and they were all playing on the same day. Not to mention they were leading up to industrial rock icons Nine Inch Nails, who would be headlining with a 90-minute set. Probably the biggest upset of the weekend was that Japanese Breakfast was on at the same time as King Gizz, making fans choose between two of the best acts at the festival, but I honestly don’t think you could go wrong either way.
Shaky Knees 2022: Friday Recap
(05/19/22 10:57pm)
This year’s Shaky kicked off on Friday, April 29 and lasted through Sunday, May 1. Even on the very first day, the lineup was already unreal. Not only did they have Pop-Punk legends Green Day headlining, the lineup also featured iconic bands like Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Spoon, up-and-comers like Faye Webster and Nilüfer Yanya, and so many others.
