Greek Life and music
 
im gonna be a freshman in college and i really want to rush, but I really want to pursue music (guitar) and am unsure about the ability to both pledge a fraternity and be a serious guitar player. Any advice on this would help, and I of course understand fraternities are different and may demand different things. Thanks

Look up Cory Morrow, Django Walker, etc.

Actually, a good example would be to check out Josh Kelley (the one who is marrying Katherine Heigel). He's an incredible artist and many people know who he is....he is a member of Kappa Sigma from Ole Miss.

See, it can be done.

Like dude, where are you going to fit in school into that hectic schedule, dude.

Jimmy Buffet is a Kappa Sig, if he can make that crappy ass music, I'm sure you'll be OK.

Pat Green was Farmhouse. I mean, possibilities are limitless. Cory Morrow and Django Walker came about because they played at their fraternity houses and the brothers urged them on.

Kevin Griffin - Gamma Chapter LSU Kappa Sigma - Better Than Ezra.


For the record, if you don't like Jimmy Buffetts music, you can shove it up your ass.

From what I hear Florida Kappa Sig is very busy studying how they can better impersonate Florida KA. Trying to teach goody-goodies how to pretend you hunt and fish takes up a lot of time.

Page McConnell of the group Pfish was a member of Kappa Alpha Order (fraternity). He was a member of the Beta Lambda Chapter.

You can do almost anything and still be Greek, including playing the guitar actively.

He's even better known for having been in the group Phish.

There were a few guys in my chapter who played in local bands, and, as was noted, there have been a bunch of famous musicians who have been in fraternities.
