Carleton winter kickoff party rocks Ottawa

Carleton winter kickoff party rocks Ottawa Nov 8th 2006

Words by Caden Brown

The CU Ski and Snowboard Club kicked off the season Friday with a party
that most people won’t forget for a long time (and some forgot the next
morning).

The campus bar at Carleton University, Oliver’s, was packed left, right
and centre with tall tukes, tall tees and for those of us of age, tall
boys. The show started with videos from Mack Dawg Productions,
Pléhouse, The Newman Administration and Finger on da Trigger, followed
by performances by hip hop artists Absent Minded and Q, Atherton &
Sire, Flip Kuma, and Cage. Needless to say, one event above all was
symbolic of the entire night; Newman of the Newman Administration
getting pushed out of the bar and threatened to be arrested because he
wouldn’t remove his bandana. And yes, I do mean to be cliché in saying
that the Newman Admin stole the show.

As soon as their movie, Content, came on, the bar went from an anxious,
chaotic crowd of drunkards pacing aimlessly back and forth throughout
the bar to a stand still crop of diligent young adults. Ok, so I was
the drunkard pacing aimlessly back and forth, but nevertheless, Content
captivated the audience and aroused cheers, laughter, and after some of
the bails, tears. With an original soundtrack by Jonas Bonnetta,
Content’s beautiful blend of melodic music and soothing cinematography
illustrates the joy and excitement that winter can bring for a group of
young riders with absolutely no budget. Anyways, enough about the
movie, you’ll all just need to see it for yourself.

The hip hop performances were amazing; local Toronto artists Absent
Minded and Q ripped the stage first, followed by Ottawa artists Flip
Kuma and Atherton & Sire. At this point in the night, the crowd was
getting a little rowdy and there seemed to be a steady flow of people
getting kicked out of the bar. The bar ran dry, and by the time Cage
came on to finish off the night, the crowd had thinned out into a mere
group.

I think it’s safe to say that the CU Ski and Snowboard Club definitely
knows how to put on a ridiculous show. Thanks to Daly, DBC, Kathryn,
Blake and everyone else who ran the show.
