A Familiar UWG Tale: We forgot Charlie!

I present this week an all too familiar story that has for some reason escaped the very basic foundations of our West Georgian society.

However, I think it’s also better this way, because now I feel like I could potentially be speaking out for a lot of you who feel the same. The events of this story are based on real situations, but I thought humor would be my most effective means of getting my point across so, without further adieu, enjoy.

“Fun Rock” Will Rock Your Socks Off

Local Music "Baby Baby"

The clock was slowly approaching midnight on Jan. 30, and the Alley Cat Restaurant and Bar was packed to the brim.

The sound of excitement filled the crowded bar as local band Baby Baby made their entrance through the front door. They filed onto the stage, one after the other, like heroes returning from war with their heads held high and instruments in hand. They knew what they had to do: together they would turn Carrollton into one big dance party.
