the USD campus was a great success. This time, instead of gracing our homecoming stage or Aromas coffee house, they debuted in front of the new Plaza Mayor amphitheatre at the Student Life Pavilion. "We're stoked to be back at USD!" lead singer Dan Curcio proudly proclaimed, right before the show began. The boys from San Luis Obispo are about to embark on their first national tour, so they were able to practice some of their new stuff for the Toreros, while also playing some of their classic hits such as "9 to 5."
For those unfamiliar with the music of Still Time, it is definite California rock – one can compare it most with the sound of Dispatch or OAR. (If you haven't heard the music, download a free six-song demo at stilltimemusic.com/demo.zip).
Recent college graduates from Cal Poly, the band members are young and fun, with a "let's party" type of attitude that resonates with students. Over the last few years, Still Time has turned from a into a profession and their upcoming national tour marks their increasing seriousness and popularity. They informed us that they would be covering 47 states in four months, which is quite a continental feat. Nick Bilich, Still Time's long-time guitar player, stated that, "It's cool to see the band get tighter, as we look forward to our national tour, where we are about to cover a ton of states we've never even been to before."
Perhaps owing to their several shows here at USD, Still Time has quite a fan following with the student body. They generously gave a few shout outs to long-time fans and after they finished their set, several students ran up to chat with the band members, calling them each by name.
Also present was a delegation of Associated Students members, available to discuss the upcoming restructuring of Associated Students and provide free Chipotle to hungry students. Assistant Director of Concerts Alan Brunet was happy about the show's turnout and informed The Vista that the SLP concert series is "only one way that AS is utilizing the SLP to its full potential," and also that he hopes the SLP dead hour concert series will continue as a USD tradition. Stay tuned to see what band is up next up at the SLP.
