Elvis is coming!

Costello and Cronauer highlight Bronstein Bash

Pop musician Elvis Costello and Vietnam war disc jockey Adrian Cronauer make their Brandeis debuts this week as students gear up for a weekend of parties, barbeques and beer at the annual Bronstein weekend.
The annual spring weekend kicks of tomorrow night when Cronauer speaks at the Sherman Function Hall at 8 p.m. Cronauer's role as the light-hearted radio personality in Vietnam during the 1960's was the subject of the movie, Good Morning, Vietnam, starring comedian Robin Williams.
Costello, whose new album Spike has been well received, will perform Thursday night in the Shapiro Gymnasium before a sold out crowd of nearly 2,000 people. The concert's opening act will be musician Nick Lowe.
"I get the sense the Brandeis community is very anxious about Bronstein weekend and I sense they're really motivated to attend the Bronstein events," Student Events Special Events Coordinator Rosalia Baiamonte '90 said.
"I think Bronstein Weekend '89 will set the precedent for the most incredible five consecutive days Brandeis has ever seen."
