Shock-rock band hits Vertig
By April Towery
The Battalion
U FOFU members have expe
rienced a little bit of every
thing in their three years of
playing together.
The band will experience
College Station when it plays at
Vertigo tonight.
The Dallas-based rock band has
been praised for its energetic,
upbeat and abnormal live shows,
and condemned for their views on
homosexuality, drug usage and the
age of their drummer.
While most 14-year-0lds were
getting a good night’s sleep for
junior high school the next day,
drummer Ben Curtis was play
ing live shows on school nights
with UFOFU.
Curtis said it has been worth it
to stay with the band.
"I’m planning to go back to
high school at some point or take
some classes by correspon
dence,” Curtis said. “I just
stopped showing up for a while,
but now I know I may need that
education later on in life.
“But playing with the band is
what I want to do as a career, so I
am working toward something.”
Curtis’ older brother, Brandon,
is UFOFU’s 24-year-old bassist
and vocalist.
“If we didn’t play in the band
together, we probably wouldn’t
see much of each other,” Ben
Curtis said.
“Brandon got a job at a factory
working graveyard shifts, so he
sleeps a lot now.”
When the brothers were living
in New York with their father, they
met guitarist and vocalist Joe
Butcher, 28, through an ad in the
newspaper.
The band has released two
albums with Direct Hit Records.
UFOFU also recorded a full length
album in August titled Medicine.
“We started out by giving away
our record free to music stores and
radio stations just to get our name
out,” Butcher said.
Ben Curtis said the name
UFOFU came about in an interest
ing way.
“Brandon thought of it one
night while he was tripping on
LSD,” he said, “and we thought it
was really cool because it’s the
same thing forward and back
ward.”
The band got its break into
music with help from Dallas
bands Tripping Daisy and Hagfish.
“They didn’t know us at the
time, but they saw us play and
really liked our music,” Butcher
said. "Now we’re all close friends.
After getting exposure with those
bands, we were able to come back
by ourselves.”
Butcher said UFOFU enjoys
touring and playing live shows.
“We like to think we put on a
good live show,” Butcher said.
“We’re not too sure how good we
are recorded, because the quality
has not been good so far. We
recorded in Seattle, and it just was-
Singers: Amateurs take the mike
Continued from Page 3
Munse took the idea to Willie
Bennett, a co-owner and man
ager of 3rd Floor Cantina, and
Open Mike Night was born.
"It’s something I’ve always
wanted to do," Munse said.
Munse said the first night
had two performers, but now
the group of musicians has
“Whether it
sucks or
whether it’s
great, it’s fun.
This ain't no tal
ent contest.”
The Rev. Al Mays
Open Mike performer
grown into a full evening of
entertainment.
Messick decided to give the
stage a try when he saw a flyer
for Open Mike Night at a Ray
Wylie Hubbard performance.
Ressler said he heard about
the singer/songwriter night from
the bar’s answering machine.
Sergio Herrera, a sophomore
recreation, parks and tourism
sciences major, said he hap
pened to drive by the bar one
Wednesday. Now he comes every
week with his guitar in hand.
“We’re always looking for
more people,” Herrera said.
Munse said the roster never
runs out of room for new artists,
especially for women songwriters.
"I know there are girls out
there,” Munse said in the latest
Open Mike newsletter, “and
some day we’ll find out how to
get more of them to play.”
Messick said more women in
the audience would inspire him
to play better.
“Some of us heard that you
can pick up women if you play
the guitar,” Messick said with a
smile, “but I guess they have to
show up first.”
Mays said he would welcome
any new talent, regardless of gen
der, music style or level of ability.
“I don’t care what kind of
music it is,” Mays said.
“Anything live beats anything
on record, but it’s got to be from
the heart.”
Messick said Open Mike
Night is an opportunity for
performers and spectators to
enjoy themselves.
"This type of thing is what
you come to college for,”
Messick said. “The beer’s pretty
cheap, too.”
