The Neverending Story Plot Summary:

Rich with symbolism, “The Neverending Story” is a classic children's 
tale designed to teach young people to come of age emotionally. The 
lessons are painless for they are couched in fantastical imagery and 
wild tales of adventure.
Written originally in German by a German author, the story is an 
important contribution to literature because it addresses the dangers of 
tyranny. While Adolf Hitler and his Nazis are not directly mentioned in 
the story, the tale nonetheless reveals an understanding of the 
emotionally stunted mindset that leads dictators to hunger for power. 
Through the character of young Bastian Balthazar Bux, the reader gains 
an intuitive understanding of how life's tragedies can lead one to 
commit atrocious acts.

About The Go-Go Joes:

The Go-Go Joes are a new rock band that got together in the summer of 
'06. It started when Guitarist Sam Lasko got a drum set in his basement, 
wich sparked drummer Tyler Gontero's lost talent for drums. After this, 
the duo started regularly getting together for jam sessions. The thought 
of a band was rolling around in their heads. This is when they recruited 
bassist and long time friend, Kevin Bjerre. This new band was named the 
Accused. The three musicians formed a practice schedule, and started off 
with covers like Paranoid by Black Sabbath. And House of the Rising sun 
by the Animals. Plus a couple of Sam Lasko's originals, such as "hellz 
freezin over" and the popular " If You Die in Heaven". Around this time 
was when Lasko's Uncle Jim came into town. Being a song writer and long 
time musician himself, Jim decided to help the Accused record their 
first set, wich is the one you hear on myspace. After the first semester 
of school started, the Joes started looking into places to play. Lasko 
suggested they do the Rock School, wich was a six week period of time 
where you would be asigned a rock school coach. The band would then form 
a set and perform at the local Kent Stage. The Accused signed up for the 
gig. But by the time that they entered rock school, they had came to be 
known as the Go-Go Joes. This was Lasko's 4th time entering rock school, 
and the band decided they needed another guitarist, so the Joes 
recruited Guitarist Shawn Cline for the job(Lasko and Cline had attended 
previous rock schools together in a different band). Now at this time, 
the Joes' "Out of rock school" Second guitarist, was Kevin Alspach, but 
with the genious behind Lasko's writing, and the musical vibe of Cline's 
solos, plus the the gut wrenching fills from Gontero, and the heart 
thumping bass from Bjerre, the Joes decided to add Kline to their 
permanent list and unfortunately drop Alspach. Now the Joes are a 
thriving and budding rock band in the city of Kent Ohio.
