Lisa Novak
Perfect Mess
Novak/Martin Publishing
Lisa Novak, a Houston native who has
played the Houston music scene since
1995, will perform at the Northgate Music
Festival at Texadelphia Saturday at 8:15 p.m.
Listeners longing for honest lyrics and
mature, smooth vocals are in for a treat.
Novak's latest album, Perfect Mess, is the
type of CD that turns a rainy day into a day
of opportunity.
The title track completely immerses
listeners into Novak's world of folk/rock
and country.
'Time of Day" displays more of Novak's
honest lyrics that have been described as a
mix of Lucinda Williams and Indigo Girls
with a splash of Carly Simon.
Every track on the album was written or
co-written by the talented Novak, who also
owns a hair salon in Houston's Montrose
district.
"Cluttered Life," a Mary Chapin
Carpenter-like tune, and "Sometime" aie
country-oriented.
"Never Will" is a slower tune with;
steady piano accompaniment and theses
enth track, "Release Me," has comforting
fiddles and floating vocals, and could easil!
be a song by the Dixie Chicks.
The last track "Over Again" confirms Is
teners' suspicions that there is a songfoi
every relationship on this album.

Secret Agent 8
Secret Agent 8
008 Records
Secret Agent 8's success will no longer
be a secret. Those who have never heard of
the band will soon be let in on the greatest
secret of the Houston ska scene. This nine-
member band has shared the stage with
top ska acts like Reel Big Fish and the
Skatalites.
The first track, "Hoodlum," on Secret
Agent 8, begins at the high-paced rate any
ska album should and introduces the
band's incredible horns.
The second track, "Looking Ahead," has
fun, tropical beats with a little bit of reggae.
"Identity Crisis" displays big horns and
wonderfully rushed lyrics, and "Number 4"
begins with horn trills and finishes with;
big bang.
"On my Mind" is an obsessive love song
and "Beer's OK" is a fun song that suddenll
switches to Spanish during one verse.
Every song on this album is filled witf
horns, drums and phat beats. With sudu
pumped-up mix of music, this band is
sure to give one of the most energetn
performances at the Northgate Musit
Festival.

the issue of first amendment
rights,” Sarandis said. “We are a
student organization, no one is
running for an official govern
ment position.”
The leaflet in question con
tains the text “Who’s your
daddy? Me. And I make damn
cool T-shirts. Pimpin’ for the best
damn class ... fightin’ Texas
Aggie Class of 2004.”
Sarandis said words such as
“damn” and “hell” are inappropri
ate, and that the trademark Aggie
yell “beat the hell outta ...” would be
censored from campaign materials.
Dubberly said he spent about
$30 on the leaflets, and could not
afford to print another batch.
“This may cost me the elec
tion, but we really need to set this
right,” Dubberly said.
All campaign materials,
including flyers, posters, and even
gimmicks such as handing out
mints or pencils, must be
approved by the election commis
sioner, Sarandis said. Candidates
are advised not to buy campaign
materials before they have been
approved, Sarandis said, because
expenditures on censored materi
als will count against candidates’
spending limits.
Sarandis defended the com
mission’s censorship authority,
and said because student govern
ment is an independent si
organization, the commission
regulate how SGA chooses
leaders without the
Amendment constraints t
apply to the University.
More than 30 of the 125 can
dates in the student election to
submitted campaign material
inappropriate content, Saranc
said. In each case, the c
revised the materials to meetco!
mission standards and
approved.
SGA adviser Bobby Til
said about $150,000 of stud;:
government’s $450,000
comes from student fees.
Student elections will be ki
March 27-28.
