By LEE CLONTZ
Assistant Carolina! Editor I
Students looking for a nice,
quiet afternoon this Sunday should :
probably avoid P.E. Field A. <
However, anyone seeking a ]
great time with lots of music,
prizes and fun would do them- ]
selves a great service to check out i
Cockstock, USC's free outdoor
music festival.
Cockstock will feature four |
bands, with every genre of music I
represented, from pop to ska. <
The Carolina Program Union is
the primary sponsor for the festi- i
val, with additional aid from ;
WUSC-FM and the Residence Hall i
Association.
The festival begins at 11 a.m., ]
when the local band 49 Reasons ;
takes the stage.
"We wanted to start with 49 i
Reasons because they have a :
harder edge ? they'll be kind of a
wake-up call to the campus," John ;
Chism, chairperson of CPU's Contemporary
Sounds Committee, i
said. i
After 49 Reasons finishes an ap- |
proximately 45-minute set, the At- ]
lanta quintet Lava Love will play ,
its set, supporting their latest al- |
bum "Aphrodisia."

'marvelously entertaining live

Press.
"We just stumbled onto Lava
Love. But I heard that they sound fl
really awesome live," Chism said. ^
Following Lava Love are the
roasters, the freestyle ska band
from New York. The Toasters' albums
have routinely made top-10
ska charts across the country.
"The Toasters have never been
to this area of the country before,
and we wanted some different
music," Chism said.
The headliners of Cockstock,
Dreams So Real, should begin at
about 5 to 5:30 p.m.
Dreams So Real, an Athens,
Ga., pop band, will be playing
songs from its albums "Father's
House," "Rough Night in Jericho"
and "Gloryline."
