College Station’s Mourning After has released
its second CD, "The Bridge EP” and it’s like
nothing one will hear in a long while.
At first glance, the CD conjures up thoughts
of past local bands' failed attempts at “so-called
music” and the mere six song tracklist makes
the disc seem more like a demo than a CD.
Band members Dan Osterwisch and Dave Saxe,
pictured on the back cover of the CD jacket,
don’t exactly give off the vibe of international
superstar-wannabe alternative rockers. But once
the CD starts spinning, something unexpected
comes out of the speakers - good music.
All of Mourning After’s songs are acoustic
with the occasional background bass, so head-
bangers may want to pass on this one. Its
sound could be compared to Matchbox 20 or
the Goo Goo Dolls’ lighter side, but saying
Mourning After is like another band would
almost be an injustice. The band accomplishes

Jackson gets new
lead attorney
JACKSON
Act Two of
the Michael
Jackson child
molestation
case gets
under way this
week with a
new cast of
lawyers taking
center stage.
“My life is at stake.” the pop
star said as he announced fir
ing his two high profile
lawyers. Mark Geragos and
Benjamin Brafman.
At the counsel table when
court reconvenes Friday will be
Thomas Mesereau Jr., a well
known advocate whose work
on behalf of the downtrodden
and minorities was a selling
point for the superstar who has
been involved in fund raising
for numerous causes.
From his statement, it
appeared that Jackson broke
with Geragos because of the
famed attorney’s representation
of Scott Peterson on charges
that Peterson murdered his wife,
Laci, and their unborn child.
Jackson felt that Geragos’
involvement in that trial, which
is in jury selection, was taking
up too much of his time.
“It is imperative that I have the
full attention of those who are
representing me. My life is at
stake.” Jackson said. “Therefore.
I must feel confident that my
interests are of the highest pri
ority. I am innocent of these
false charges, and will aggres
sively seek to clear my name."
Jackson. 45. is free on $3
million bail. He was originally
charged with seven™
lewd or lascivious ca
involving a child undei
with administering an
cant, reportedly wins
child under 14.
“* have not replat-

have replaced the lea:

this is a decision tta
personally made.’'
