Desberardos > Texas tour rides into College Statioi
tonight with new CD, country-pop blend of rhytl
Chris Berardo and the
Desberardos
American Dust
CD Courtesy of
Greenhaven Records
Chris Berardo and the Desbera-
dos’ first full-length album, Amer
ican Dust, contains melodic pop
tunes with a country influence.
The songs contain urban-cowboy
themes that sound similar to early
Eagles and John Mellencamp.
The album is mostly upbeat
with not much change in style
and composition.
The lyrics contain themes such
as love and relationships, as in
‘One Step Closer to Goodbye’,
and aging and loneliness, as in Ts
There Anybody Out There?’ and
‘Old Man’s Eyes.’
The album keeps a melodic,
casual pace throughout without
any surprises. (C +)

F itzwilly’s is known for hosting
new country and blues acts,
and this Friday night is no ex
ception. Chris Berardo and the Des
berardos will grace Fitzwilly’s stage
with its country-pop stylings from its
recent CD.
But this is not an ordinary show
for the band. Chris Berardo, the
band’s front man said only two
members are making the trek from
Connecticut to Texas to perform the
all-acoustic set; himself and one of
the band’s guitarists, Marc Berardo.
“This is our first trip to Texas to
actually play on tour,” Berardo said.
“We previously came down to check
out the scene, but we didn’t have the
chance to play anywhere. ”
Berardo said he hopes to bring
the whole band down next time
they play in College Station. The
band includes Berardo on vocals,
percussion and harmonica, Marc
Berardo on vocals and acoustic gui
tars, Scott Berardo on drums, Tom
Marotta on bass and vocals, Dick
Neil on acoustic and electric guitars
and C.J. Masters on pedal steel and
electric guitar.
“When I was growing up I lis
tened to The Eagles and other
bands like them on the radio, and
that’s where I found my inspira
tion,” Berardo said. “1 wanted to
play music like that, and now I’m
getting the chance.”
Earlier this year, the band put
out its first CD, American Dust,
which is available on the Internet

Chris Berardo performs Friday night with the Desberardos at Rta
through Oxford Road Records in
Boulder, Colo.
Living in the northern city en
vironment and having southern
influences created the unique
country-pop sound of the band’s
first CD. However, Berardo said
the band has found only a small
audience while living in Stamford,
Conn., a suburb right outside
New York City, andisca
moving to Austin afters
scene for themselves.

“She showed the legend of
America that you can start from
nothing and go somewhere.”
Daniel Hronek, who plays
Prince DeLong in “The Unsinkable
Molly Brown,” said his first
thoughts about her stemmed from
the movie Titanic
“The play allows you to see
more about her besides ‘I am rich,
and I am vulgar,”’ he sa-id. “You
can see the whole character from
her being rich to being poor.”
Wilson said the 1960’s movie
version does not do justice to the
script in the way the musical does.
"The movie starred Debbie
Reynolds, who I felt was just too
old for the part,” he said. “‘Molly
Brown’ needs a character who is
alive and exciting.
“We were able to capture that
with the actress we have now
(Joanna Bush).
“The movie also leaves out a
lot of the original songs.”
After five weeks of rehearsal,
“The Unsinkable Molly Brown” is
set to open today.
It will run for three weekends.
It will be playing at the ’Magi-
nation Station theater located in
Manor East Mall.
Tickets are $6.00 for evening
shows and $4.00 for matinees.

“The Unsinkable Molly Brown”

“In 1997, the brewery had 9,000
visitors, and this year, we are ex
pecting to have an all-new record
of 10,000 visitors,” Duke said. “The
tour consists of about a 35-minute
walking tour of the facilities and
the opportunity to sample the beer
at the end of the tour.
“The tour begins with an eight-
minute video on the brewery’s
history and continues on to the
brewhouse and lab, the new tank
farm and storage facility and the
final stop is the bottling shop.”
Tours of the brewery are available
Monday through Friday 11 a.m. and
1:30 p.m. or by special arrangement
for groups of 20 or more.
The brewery is closed on week
ends and on major holidays.
Tom Moreau, a senior accounting
and finance major, said he would
love to go visit the Spoetzl Brewery
and see what it is all about.
“I have visited a winery be
fore,” Moreau said, “but I have
never had the opportunity to vis
it a brewery.
“Making beer and wine is one of
my hobbies and going to see how
my favorite beer is made would be
so cool if I ever had the chance.
“I don’t know what there is about
Shiner Bock beer, but I love it. ”
Another upcoming opportunity
for visitors to see the Spoetzl Brew
ery will be Oct. 17 at the Fifth An
nual Bocktoberfest Concert.
The all-day festival is present-
