Tight Pants: THE GRIND IS BACK!!!
http://tightpants883.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-grind-is-back.html
FRIDAY AFTERNOONS 3:00 - 5:30 WCBN 88.3fm ANN ARBOR WCBN.ORG. Friday, January 10, 2014. THE GRIND IS BACK! Several events converged to result in the return of THE GRIND to WCBN. The late-night DJ who followed the one-hour metal show "Odin's Dance Party" vanished in mid-December, necessitating either his replacement or the extension of the one-hour metal slot to three. It was too late to bother adding a new DJ- the schedule change was only a couple weeks away- so we opted for a longer metal show. How you ...

Tight Pants: Twenty Years - Part II
http://tightpants883.blogspot.com/2012/10/twenty-years-part-ii.html
FRIDAY AFTERNOONS 3:00 - 5:30 WCBN 88.3fm ANN ARBOR WCBN.ORG. Wednesday, October 10, 2012. Twenty Years - Part II. A hefty train fare across the bay, I never made it over there. A couple good things did happen though. LIAR came out and I bought it, on cassette, at some place on Haight Street. Not Amoeba. I think it may have been Rough Trade. Actual Flier, Savaged by a Cat. Here is actual live footage of what might actually be this show. Do you want to know who opened up that show? Sometimes I can't belie...

Star Wars - '77 - '80 Collector's Blog: The Mystery of the Rebellious Robot
http://starwars77-80.blogspot.com/2010/07/mystery-of-rebellious-robot.html
I have a passion for collecting vintage Star Wars merchandise from the late 70's. Action figures, comics, trading cards etc - anything related to the first Star Wars movie. But why only until 1980? It's not that I don't love The Empire Strikes Back and beyond (I really do), but there is something about that first wave of Star Wars mania that really grips me, back when it was all fresh and exciting. Thursday, July 8, 2010. The Mystery of the Rebellious Robot. That's one scary looking Chewbacca! It is disc...

CASTLE FAMOUS: June 2006
http://castlefamous.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 30, 2006. TOYS OF ENDEARMENT # 2. Here's a monster kid premium that really "turns me on"! It's the "Don't Pull That Lever Switch Cover Plate"! Posted by Famous Monster of Mpls at 6:01 AM. Thursday, June 29, 2006. I've always loved fan-produced items every bit as much, if not more, than the real thing. These "premiums" (as they're called at conventions) , always seem to show much more sincerity and affection for their subject matter than any "authentic toy" could ever hope for! It never cease...

CASTLE FAMOUS: August 2006
http://castlefamous.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 29, 2006. WATCH IT AND WEEP. Here is a great video of some family's home videos from the 1960s. This 8mm collection has everything going for it. There's a Christmas morning celebration, a St. Patrick's Day party, a summer backyard gathering of family and friends, a day at the beach, and even a swimsuit pageant for the adults! If you can spare 8 minutes of your time today, watch this collection of vintage family moments and see if it doesn't rekindle that spark of what family is all about!

Gravedigger's Local 16: Christma(dnes)s
http://gravediggerslocal.blogspot.com/2010/12/christmadness.html
What is he that builds stronger than either the mason, the shipwright, or the carpenter? Friday, December 24, 2010. The above graphic comes from Elizabeth Anderson's children's tale, The Goblins' Christmas. It's an odd little tale that hasn't gotten much attention since its initial publication in 1908 and I'm fixing that by providing you all with a direct link to the illustrated full text. Speaking of stories, Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. As its celebration had previously been dwindling. Without a...

Gravedigger's Local 16: Winter's Knight
http://gravediggerslocal.blogspot.com/2011/02/winters-knight.html
What is he that builds stronger than either the mason, the shipwright, or the carpenter? Monday, February 28, 2011. Sometimes Christmas music can be creepy. There's a version of "Carol of the Bells". Floating around out there that, thanks to the tone and speed of the children's chorus singing, always unnerves me a bit every time I hear it. Sensing the connection between Christmas and spooky stuff,. Is an English folk standard written by King Henry VIII! The string work is great here, as is the use of mul...

Gravedigger's Local 16: Ghost Provokers
http://gravediggerslocal.blogspot.com/2011/03/ghost-provokers.html
What is he that builds stronger than either the mason, the shipwright, or the carpenter? Thursday, March 3, 2011. Ghost hunting shows are ripe. So it was only a matter of time before someone created a comedy series on the subject. Ghost Provokers. Offers a humorous look at one group's unique method of dealing with the dead. My personal favorite is the three-part Halloween special set aboard the RMS Queen Mary,. Which also features music by the Midnight Syndicate. Posted by Weird Jon. Promote Your Page Too.
