Falling
Continued from Page 3
Belile said the band’s reputation
preceded itself when he auditioned.
“I saw their ad for a bassist in a local
rag down here,” Belile said. “I’d heard
good things about the band, but never
seen them live. I bought some of their
stuff, liked what 1 heard, and here 1 am.”
Belile and Spurlock both describe
the music Boortz writes as “power pop.”
“It’s not heavy metal, but then it’s not
too dancy either,” Spurlock said. “There
is a lot of Beatles influence. Basically, it’s
just a strong driving pop tune with a lot
of crunchy guitar.”
With Boortz and Flanagan in their
early 20s and Spurlock and Belile in
their 30s, the band’s identity is root
ed in its youthful energy and its ma
ture technical playing.
“Where they have youth and en
thusiasm, we have age and experi
ence,” Belile said. “It is a good mix of
the youth with the maturity.”
Despite the age difference, the
band members have enjoyed the four
rehearsals they have had together.
“Everyone is really easy to get
along with,” Belile said. “Our humors
match, which makes it easy when
you are stuck in a a small room with
three other guys.”
Long-time fan Nancy Leon has fol
lowed the band’s bumpy rise since its
high-school days. Leon also devotes
her time to the band as director of its
newsletter, titled Whisper. Leon said
she feels Forever Falling offers some
thing unique to the music scene.
“This band is refreshing to hear,”
Leon said. “There is nothing like it in
town. Most of the bands around here
are just noise. Forever Falling is a
break in the noise.”

Magic won’t play,
except with M.J.
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil (AP) —
Magic Johnson is willing to play in
the 2000 Olympics in Sydney on
one condition. And that condition is
named Michael.
The former Los Angeles Lakers star
surprised reporters at a news confer
ence Wednesday when asked if he
would play again for the U.S. Dream
Team.
“If Michael plays, yes,” Johnson
said. “I want to play only with the
greatest and the best, and that
means Michael Jordan.”
The two MJs were teammates on
the original Dream Team at the 1992
Olympics in Barcelona, Spain.
While Jordan is leading his Chica
go Bulls into the National Basketball
Association playoffs, Johnson is on
the lecture circuit, talking to young
sters about the AIDS virus that led
him into premature retirement.
