The Nashville Knack: Future Thieves Take II
Nashville Knack

Music that moves the soul is one of many ways to describe the maturing sound of Future Thieves. With the release of Live at Bluerock and, more recently, Sucker, the band has been growing in fame and quality.

Recently, Future Thieves a show in Nashville at the historic 3rd & Lindsley. I arrived at the venue with excitement to see Future Thieves play yet another amazing show. As I sat waiting for the show to start, Austin McCool, the guitarist with a last name that describes his personality, approached me.

We reminisced over our lives the past several months catching up. I also learned more about the band's latest music video, Sucker. It was recorded in the Brentwood Skate Center, in Tennessee. There were many bruises formed with each fall everyone had during and after the recording.

This conversation says a lot about how much the band loves each of their families, friends, and fans. The heart of Austin McCool and the rest of the band has brought them far in their careers. After our conversation, I walked to the stage inside a packed room.

The first act for the evening was one of Nashville's most creative songwriters, Guthrie Brown. Future Thieves had Guthrie for their Christmas show at 12th & Porter, and believed in him to produce another amazing show. If the crowds roar after songs like Natural was an indicator of Guthrie's performance, I could not wait to see how people would react to Future Thieves.

The room was dark, the band stood still in place, and the drummer, Gianni Gibson, followed with the beginning of a song. Lights began to strobe as the lead singer Elliot Collett stepped up to the microphone displaying the full range of his singing ability. Each person in the room cheered with excitement on not only the first song, but every song that followed, especially Horizon Lines and Ghosts.

Elliot Collett, Austin McCool, Nick Goss, and Gianni Gibson rocked 3rd & Lindsley. Each song was crafted and practiced to perfection along with a breathtaking performance.

To conclude, Future Thieves continues to be a kick-ass band with an ever expanding base of songs, fans, and experience. The band only has ladders to climb up from this point, as failure is not possible for Future Thieves.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
