The house has however hosted a variety of musical acts in years past, including various projects of [[James Wetzel]] and [[Eric Ratzel]], [[Nightlife]], and [[Wolf Blitzer]], as well as less structured performances by Jazz House residents and others. Sadly, relatively little live music was present during the 2007-2008 year. However, many of the 2008-2009 residents have expressed interest in reviving Jazz House's tradition of live music. Sources predict that both Knox and off-campus bands may perform. In addition, the 2008-2009 residents may make some sweet-ass music themselves as well. Time will tell! |
