This isn’t technically music, but it is sponsored by Purdue Student Concert Commitee:

Bob Saget performs at Elliott Hall of Music April 14th

J. Robbins’ family needs your help.

On January 27, 2006, our great friends and Channels members J. Robbins (of Government Issue, Jawbox, Burning Airlines, and most recently Channels) and Janet Morgan welcomed their first child, a son named Callum.
