ROCKIN' OUT :JJssee VCR!)Nq eaJIIIP'US JIII'US!)e "I don't know where we might be going, I don't know where we might end up. I don't know where we might be going, but I'm liking it so far." This chorus from "Summertime" shows the spirit of WMC students Iyricized by Bryan Gettman. This year, the band Pocket Full of Change became a popular band to follow for WMCstudents. As their audience grew, they played on campus in the Forum and PELCand off-campus at the Grog and Tankard in Washington, D.C. and the Bank in Baltimore. Many of the members of the Phi Delta Theta fraternity showed support for band member Gettman by attending his various performances. As lead singer and guitarist, Gettman wrote the songs with clearly a 31 1 influence. Other WMC students involved in the band were Dave Long and Chris Schroeder. They recorded their songs on tape and gave them to their WMCfans to encourage a bigger audience. Pocket Full of Change is just one example of how students incorporated music into their lives at WMC. Several students had their own ideas for forming bands. Others joined established campus groups such as college choir, ensemble, and jazz groups. Those who didn't actively participate in creating music were active and appreciative listeners. Bryan Gettman und fellow band members perform the song ··Frc
