Jeremy Young Music composition freshman

Freshman saxophonist chats about Pink Floyd, Tool, Waldo and a Homecoming ass-kicking

WILDCAT: So what instrument do you play?

YOUNG: I play the sax.

WILDCAT: How long have you played?

YOUNG: Since seventh grade.

WILDCAT: Are you really into music?

YOUNG: Yeah. I love music.

WILDCAT: What kind of music do you like?

YOUNG: Blues and jazz, mostly.

WILDCAT: What are your favorite bands?

YOUNG: Pink Floyd and Tool.

WILDCAT: Oh, so you like the one-hit wonders?

YOUNG: I don't really think Pink Floyd is a one-hit wonder.

WILDCAT: If you were in a band, would you want to be a one-hit wonder?

YOUNG: No, because they're cheesy and they only have one hit, so they don't make any money. They end up on VH1 and people laugh at them.

WILDCAT: Would you rather be a no-hit wonder?

YOUNG: Actually, yeah. I wouldn't want to be in a shitty band.

WILDCAT: But it's all about the money, right?

YOUNG: No, it's all about the music.

WILDCAT: You know, your shirt looks like Waldo's.

YOUNG: They're actually called Waldos.

WILDCAT: Did you ever watch the "Waldo" show?

YOUNG: No, I didn't realize there was a show.

WILDCAT: See, I told you.

WILDCAT PHOTO EDITOR: No, there was a show!

WILDCAT: Could you find Waldo?

YOUNG: Yeah, it was easy. I always read the books.

WILDCAT: I don't think there was much reading involved. For me it was hard to find. He was a tricky bastard, that Waldo.

YOUNG: I never had a problem with it. You just have to have a keen eye.

WILDCAT: So did you play at Homecoming this weekend?

YOUNG: Yeah.

WILDCAT: We got our ass kicked.

YOUNG: Yeah. We got our ass kicked bad.
