KicKing bacK with KICKSTAND
Local student band to perform at Big Pauly’s Saturday
irsday, Octobe
By Crystal Dobson
the battalion
After getting their start in Lechner Hall,
the band members of Kickstand are making
their mark on the music scene.
On Oct. 13, Kickstand will perform at
Big Pauly’s. There is no cover charge, and
the show starts at 10 p.m.
Members of the band include Jon Reisch,
lead guitarist and singer; Josh Lee, singer
and rhythm guitar; Erik Grande, lead guitar;
Pippy Coulbourne, bass player and David
Conlon, drums.
The overall sound of Kickstand is similar
to Pearl Jam, Sound Garden and Stone
Temple Pilots — basically the mid-90s
alternative sound.
The group's songs, which range widely in
sound and style, result from the influence of
the band members’ diverse life experiences.
“All of the members have great ideas on
their own aspects of music, and each have
shaped Kickstand in one
=8* %
m
way or another,’’ said Conlon. “Each idea
comes from the personal and individual
influences other people had on our lives. I
love that our band can be so unique but sim
ilar at the same token.”
Kickstand, which has frequently per
formed at The Grove and the Zone, has
also played at several Northgate venues
and cites North by Northgate as its favorite
booking because of the high student
turnout and support.
While the band said it hopes to attain a
showing similar and as populated as last
year’s spot at North by Northgate, its present
goal is to leave Texas A&M having played in
Shadow Canyon.
Currently, it is planning to perform in
San Marcos before the end of the school
year and has its sights set on landing a gig in
a major city, such as Houston or Austin.
In the meantime. Kickstand said it
enjoys playing with other bands not only
to attract larger audiences, but for the
learning experience gained by interacting
with other talents.
Kickstand’s members have been together
since spending their freshman year together
I at Lechner, and a few have known each other
since their very first day on campus.
Although there were different band
members in the past few years, each of them
shared ihe same goal — making music.
The band started out by practicing i
Lechner television lounge, trying toi
everything without amplifiers to avoidd
turbing people. When the resident advij
put a halt to its practicing, the band recem
permission from Hall Council so they
practice during a designated timeeachv
Today it is no longer practices inthet
but instead, in a studio off Harvey Mi
Parkway.
The band said it looks forward

recording it in Dallas over the summer.

graduation. Some wish to go to gr
st hool or law school, but music will .cJ
remain a large part in the members'lives.!
“All of us have different goals inf
