      Sue
      showed
      up
      a
      week
     
     
      later,
      ready
      and
      willing

      answer
      any
      questions

      (at
      ten
      bucks
      a
      pop).
     
    

    
     
      Other
      successful
     
     
      events
      that
      occurred
      during
     
     
      the
      week
      include
      the
      Pancake
     
     
      Breakfast
      where
      some
      rather
     
     
      tasty
      flapjacks
      were
      served
     
     
      up,
      and
      Wednesday
      night
     
     
      Trivia,
      which
      apparently
      was
     
     
      packed
      as
      usual.
     
    

    
     
      Not
      all
      events
      were
      as
     
     
      successful,
      such
      as
      the
     
     
      Madhat
      concert
      where
      at-
     
     
      tendance
      was
      low
      (a
      mere
     
     
      three
      people
      showed
      up),
      and
     
     
      the
      pubcrawl,
      where
      only
     
     
      thirteen
      individuals
      were
     
     
      psyched
      for
      a
      night
      on
      the
     
     
      town.
     
    

    
     
      Saturday
      was
      the
      big
     
     
      night.
      The
      Watchmen,
      a
      well
     
     
      known
      Winnipeg-based
      band
     
    
   
   
    
     
      played
      at
      the
      Barn,
      and
      put
     
     
      on
      an
      amazing
      show
      for
      the
     
     
      highly
      energetic
      sold-out
     
     
      crowd,
     
    

    
     
      “This
      was
      one
      of
      the
     
     
      best
      shows
      UPEI
      has
      seen,”
     
     
      says
      Dougan.
      The
      infamous
     
     
      Rude
      Mechanicals
      and
      This
     
     
      Minor
      Tremble
      (of
      Ottawa)
     
     
      opened
      the
      show,
      and
      both
     
     
      bands
      also
      seemed
      to
      go
      over
     
     
      well.
      Being
      a
      wet/dry
      event,
     
     
      there
      were
      plenty
      of
      under-
     
     
      age
      fans,
      and
      also
      lots
      of
     
     
      faces
      from
      off-campus.
     
    

    
     
      “Although
      there
     
     
      wasn’t
      as
      big
      of
      an
      overall
     
     
      turnout
      as
      we
      would
      have
     
     
      liked,
      everything
      was
      lots
      of
     
     
      fun
      and
      the
      crowd
      was
      there
     
     
      when
      we
      needed
      them
     
     
      {money
      wise],”
      says
     
     
      Dougan.
     
    

    
     
      Some
      of
      the
      low
      at-
     
     
      tendance
      and
      lack
      of
      partici-
     
     
      pation
      could
      be
      attributed
      to
     
     
      the
      fact
      that
      it
      was
      a
      busy
     
    
   
   
    
     
      week
      for
      many
      students,
      and
     
     
      some
      found
      activities
      to
      be
      a
     
     
      bit
      expensive.
     
    

    
     
      One
      student,
      who
      was
     
     
      asked
      why
      they
      didn
      t
      take
     
     
      part
      in
      any
      of
      the
      events,
     
     
      commented,
      “I
      m
      lazy.”
     
    

    
     
      Another
      student
      re-
     
     
      plied,
      “1
      m
      cheap
      and
      I
      have
     
     
      no
      school
      spirit.”
     
    

    
     
      At
      least
      they’re
      hon-
     
     
      est.
     
    

    
     
      But
      for
      the
      students
     
     
      that
      did
      choose
      to
      get
      in-
     
     
      volved,
      they
      certainly
     
     
      weren’t
      disappointed.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Tyler
      and
      Matt
      also
      wanted
     
     
      to

      a
      shout
      out
      to
      the
