NYU SCIENTISTS PERFORM AT
CORNELIA STREET CAF, MARCH 19
8:30 p.m.

What do you get when you mix the son of a Louisiana butcher, a dome builder, a philosophy major, and an ex-Israeli solider? NYU scientists who play rock n' roll, of course. Joseph LeDoux, Daniela Schiller, and Nina Galbraith Curely are neuroscientists who study emotion and memory functions of the brain, and Tyler Volk is an environmental scientist who has also written about mind and brain. Their original songs are about mental life and mental disorders (Mind-Body Problem, An Emotional Brain, If You Want Your Brain to Last). They also cover other “heavy mental" tunes like Manic Depression, 8 Miles High, and 19th Nervous Breakdown. When all else fails, they slip into the blues for. Newsday, not surprisingly, describes The Amygdaloids as “Heavy Mental."

Who: The Amygdaloids

What: Performance

When: Mon., March 19, 8:30 p.m. Cover: $6.

Where: Cornelia Street Caf (29 Cornelia Street, between Bleecker and W. 4th Sts.)
