ebrations for the Full Moon Fes
tival, the second most important
holiday in the lunar calendar.
Celebration for the Chinese
New Year in February takes up
most of the club's time during
December and January.
Traditionally, the new year is
celebrated the weekend before
and after Spring Festival, and
the club spends almost two
months planning and rehearsing
for the program.
At the end of February, the
club focuses on The Internation-,
al Student's Association's Mini-
Olympics.
Last year. The China Club
finished in the top five for the
first time. Fang said. The goal
for this year is to finish in the
top three.
Also in February, the club
takes part in International Week.
They have a booth for the cultur
al display in the MSC and the in
ternational buffet, and will par
ticipate in the talent and fashion
shows.
Last year, the China Club re
ceived a plaque from ISA com
mending them for their involve
ment throughout the year, not
only on campus, but also
abroad.
The club donates money all
year long to the less fortunate in
China, Fang said. He said they
try to help out and remember
the people they left behind.
"Chinese students here enjoy
a good education, but in China it
is still a little bit backwards,"
Fang said. "Some children can't
afford elementary school. We
try to donate small amounts of
money to support those families.
We need to help out our home
country."
Over the holidays. Fang re
turned to his hometown for the
first time in five years. In the
two weeks he was there, he no
ticed living conditions had im
proved.
"In the coastal area where I'm
from," Fang said, "the economy
is booming. People are dressed
better and they are eating better

than some Chinese students
here. Mostly, they are interested
in what's happening in the
states."
Montgomery
Continued from Page 4
In his own way, he makes running into an old
flame seem almost sinful when retelling the reunion
to a current companion.
"She Don't Need a Band to Dance" seems to be an
updated version of "Nickels and Dimes and Love"
from "Life's A Dance." Instead of scrimping to buy
a cola, now a new set of drapes is out of the question.
Maybe next album a new car will be the dream.
Probably the best song on the album is (surprise)
a ballad, "Rope the Moon." Despite his hard times.
Montgomery's current love sees through that and
views him as almost Superman.
Probably not the most politically correct song, but
nevertheless a very entertaining one.
To show the rest of the country world he can rock
with the best (attention Garth), Montgomery jams on
"Friday at Five." A definite foot-stomper that would
make the Kentucky Headhunters jealous, Mont
gomery signals he can cover all the aspects necessary
to be successful in today's new Nashville.
Along with fellow artists Tracy Byrd and Clay
Walker, this Kentucky native has quietly settled into
the next stratosphere beneath Garth Brooks and
George Strait. He is a very entertaining artist who
has not caught the public's full attention — yet.
Acid
Continued from Page 4
"The Test" begins with a 52-
second cut that clearly shows that
acid jazz is built on a traditional
foundation. The mild tune by
T.C., "Joe," brings to mind the
beatnik poetry that was once read
in coffeehouses around the world.
The album, however, quickly
takes an upbeat turn and the
more modern jazz mixes reveal a
complex musical structure with
many influences. The following
10 songs are bass-driven with a
strong reliance on horns and
drums for a quality traditional
jazz sound.
But what separates this style of
music from just any old jazz is the
integral use of electronic compo
nents such as keyboards, mixers
and drum machines. Modest and
purposeful use of this equipment
allows the music to escape the old
jazz label and appeal to a new
generation that is accustomed to
electronic music.
The strong standouts on the al
bum, however, are the songs that
really show their street roots
through the rap-style lyrics.
The Brooklyn Funk Essentials
and T.C. exemplify this lyrical po
etry; but the one cut that deserves
special mention is by Sound As
sembly. Their song "Live from
New York" does not rely heavily
on anything other than a simple
beat, but the lyrics really give the
listener insight into what acid
jazz is all about - life on the
streets.
