Lisa Anderson Two French designers, Jean Toutou and Jessica Ogden, originally created Madras, a light weight cotton that comes in plaid and sometimes striped patterns. The fabric got its name from the former English name (Madras) of Chennai, India, where the fabric is primarily manufactured. Madras shorts offer a cute preppy look for men. Button-down Madras shirts are also available. For women, Madras patterns can be seen in tops, dresses, skirts and shorts. You can get clothing made from Madras fabric at Nordstrom and Nord Navy.

Hinshaw: Iggy Pop meets and makes love to The Beach Boys. Chewbacca results. Q: HOW DID YOU BECOME INTERESTED IN BECOMING MUSICIANS? Hinshaw: I can't speak for Andy and Brandon, but I wouldn't call myself a musician, per se. The word implies a certain level of expertise and maturity that I pride myself on lacking. Gassaway: Maturity is an anchor that drowns a man. Ripley: Girls. Q: WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO START A BAND? Hinshaw: Andy and Brandon were a twopiece playing for day-old slices of pizza and half smoked cigarettes. I offered my services Now we get free beer. Gasseway: Patrick fakes the seizure, and, while the bartender is distracted, Brandon and I fill up old Folger's cans with PBR. Ripley: Two plus one equals free beer, hence the band. Q: WHERE DO YOU SEE YOUR BAND IN FIVE YEARS? Gassaway: If not behind bars? Singapore. Hinshaw: The court date is next Thursday. though, so Singapore ain't looking too likely. Ripley: Unless someone out there knows how to counterfeit passports. Q: WHAT MAKES YOU GUYS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER BANDS? Hinshaw: They are probably good. Gassaway: But we are fun. Ripley: And better looking. Q: HOW OFTEN DO YOU PERFORM? WHERE? WHHERE? Hinshaw: Not nearly enough. If Andy would ditch his three jobs and his other far more successful band, The Pomonas. Gassaway: Which, shameless plug, you should all check out the Pamonas tonight at Liberty Hall, or Saturday, Sept. 30, at the Jazzhaus. Hinshaw: We like playing anywhere, and we don't charge anything, but we have played at Harbour Lights and the Jazzhaus and once in Andy's house on the Fourth of July. Gassaway: The fireworks were inside that night. Visit the Magic Boyfriends Web site at myspace. com/magicboyfriends for more information about the band. Carissa Pedigo
