Ladies and gents, the rumors are true/false/sortakinda accurate, depending on your sources: legendary Wu Tang member Ghostface Killah, Outback Steakhouse-promoting psychedelic indie outfit Of Montreal, and remixing/upcoming Pittsburgh rapper Wiz Khalifa will play Bacchanal on Saturday, April 24th. Bacchanal’s theme this year is Chewbacchanal, and readers should be on the lookout for real-life Chewie sightings […]

Ladies and gents, it’s the final stretch. Spring Break has come and gone, and these last seven weeks feel like No Man’s Land. Besides spring allergies and frenzied summer plans, here are a few dates to look forward to (or dread) in these last handful of weeks. Housing March 29: Lottery numbers posted April 7-9, […]

Bwog newcomer Thomas Pedroza crammed himself into Miller Theatre yesterday for a comedy performance that would make your mother blush. To those of you who didn’t stop in on Bob Saget’s performance in Miller Theatre last night, you may have just missed more than a Full House joke. The evening started off with a stripper-tastic […]

QuickTix brings you Columbia’s theater picks every alternate Wednesday. And the top sellers are… 1. Bacchanal presents Saget – If you live under a rock, as they say, you may not know that rock star (hip-hop star?) comedian Bob Saget will be telling some jokes tonight at Miller Theater. Tickets are unfortunately sold out.  2. […]

You’ve eaten your fill from three, count them — three feeding opportunities this morning.  Now, put a cap on this glorious day with four, yes, four campus concerts.  There’s something for every cynic. For those who’ve had enough of the sun or music written after 1950, there’s the air-conditioned Senior Choice Concert in Roone, put […]

Second breakfast, charcoal, and quaintness – it’s yours on Sunday morning. It’s all thanks to a school spirit organization, a women’s college, and an outdated, ye-olde-style philosophical debate group. First on the agenda this morning, WBAR has their annual WBAR-B-Q on Lehman Lawn at 11:00 AM.  It’s free, several bands are playing, and there are […]

   Photo via RottenTomatoes.com Happy Saturday everyone!  With highs in the low eighties and hope for more open lawns, Bwog can’t help but feel a little bubbly this morning, not to mention pretty darn hungry.  Luckily, Bacchanal has not one but two free food options today.  Or, since they’re consecutive, the option of six hours […]

It’s Friday night, and if you’re short on bucks but long on boredom, there’s plenty of free stuff to be had on campus. Postcrypt Art Gallery has free art, free models, free food, and—best of all—free wine in the basement of St. Paul’s Chapel. It’s the last show of the year, and the theme is […]

Thanks to a special tip from videographer Charles Kubal, BwogLive is proud to present you with recorded footage of Talib performing his (and Hi-Tek’s) new song “Back Again” on your very own Low Plaza. If you don’t recognize the title, don’t worry, the original music video hit the internet just days before Bacchanal hit you. […]

A mild Sunday night meeting started off with some great news: the Bacchanal College Days T-shirts had been universally praised and were in high demand.  In true Columbia form, however, the only leftovers are extra-large.  And speaking of Bacchanal, the Campus Life Committee had originally wanted to have a pre-concert festival was originally planned for […]

The organizers Bacchanal have noticed that it is not an especially lovely day outside, and, unfortunately, have had to do something about it. The two outdoor activities for today– the Neal Goldberg lunchtime acoustic show and the screening of Alice in Wonderland– have both been postponed due to imminent rain.The acoustic show has been moved […]
