The Acafelons Visit Broad River Coffee and Cones, Wed. Feb. 11th, 2015


THE ACAFELONS VISIT BROAD RIVER COFFEE AND CONES
Wed. Feb. 11th, 2015


I found a great website called "Can someone paraphrase each line in this Keats Italian Sonnet?" Its web address https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=A0LEVv6wO9xUOUMA66onnIlQ?qid=20100422093646AAy8WAk (yes, that's an empty underline after the semicolon) has a tail a like a comet like you wouldn't believe, and on it someone has written this: "I never really got how great Homer was until I read him in Chapman's translation. The excitement that I felt as I discovered Homer's greatness was like the excitement an astronomer must feel as he discovers a new planet." Whenever I hear the Acafelons, I'm like an astronomer with amnesia, like Alzheimer's astronomer -- I feel like a new planet has swum into my ken again and again. The Acafelons are Gardner-Webb's a cappella singing group. They can swing on a star, and I say to them: Yes. Hello, all you Cavern dwellers, welcome to the best of cellars!
