The Amygdaloids, an American rock band from New York City,〔 〕 are four New York University scientists: Joseph LeDoux, vocals and guitar, Tyler Volk, lead guitar and vocals, Nina Curley, Bass, and Daniela Schiller, drums. LeDoux is a professor of neuroscience and Volk a professor of biology. Curley is a graduate student and Schiller a postdoctoral researcher in cognitive neuroscience. Their name is a reference to the amygdala in the brain. ==Early career== The band’s first gig was on November 1, 2006 when they formed to play a set in conjunction with a lecture given by LeDoux about his research on fear and the brain. They played a number of rock cover songs with mind and brain themes, including: "Manic Depression", "19th Nervous Breakdown", and "Mother's Little Helper". They also performed several original songs about mind and brain and mental disorders. With each gig during the following spring, they included more original material. In May, 2007, they played to 10,000 people in Madison Square Garden for NYU’s College of Arts and Science graduation.〔 〕 The audience of students and their families did “the wave” during their set which was captured on video and posted on YouTube, giving them a PR boost. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Amygdaloids」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
