The Tower: A Rapunzel Musical

Free at the Play Ground, this Sunday at 3 p.m.:

“The Tower: A Rapunzel Musical” debuts in a staged reading. This musical comedy updates the story of the girl with very long hair, focusing on the relationship of a couple of imprisoned people who find each other. The production is written and scored by UMD senior Alicia Heckler, whom you’ve seen in “Seussical” as a kangaroo, in “LaTraviata” as Annina, and in “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum” as Domina.

Come early; seats will fill up fast.

Never let a good crisis go to waste…

Hi everyone! Remember me? As a good capitalist, I have decided to take the opportunity of the Love/Hate-Fest between Craig and Starfire to promote the latest episode of the northland’s premier local podcast, DANNY DOES DULUTH. But don’t worry, everyone’s favorite Troll will not make this a regular thing as I promised a year or so ago.

DANNY DOES DULUTH
EPISODE 116-Why is a 40 Year Old Doing a Show on College Radio Anyway?
Is there anything better then a good internet feud? It really is great, huh? In this episode we tackle a virtual battle that has heated up significantly over the last week or so. Fun, fun stuff in this full-length show! On today’s episode:
-Anything better then a good internet fight?
-A visit from the 40 Year Old Man Who Wants To Be Called Starfire
-Another edition of Craig’s Corner
-Ashley spazes out

Bob’s Basement Sale is back, with a vengance

My last sale put the “suck” in success, but like my old JV football coach said: “TENACITY!!”  So, I’m giving it another whirl, and you’re all invited, again. If you were the bearer of one of the myriad excuses which kept the frothy-mouthed masses from clearing out my fabulous stash of vintage dandies (something for everyone!!)(priced to induce guilt-ridden sleep-loss!) last weekend, don’t fret, I still have just about everything left. I even have a leftover keg of pear cider. 7-11pm, 628 N. 10th Ave. E, back door.

Conan O’Brien back on-air June 1st – Hurry!

IMHO Late Night  TV needs Conan back  ASAP.  I hope his format, when he takes over the Tonight Show June 1st, stays similar to how his Late Show was.  I remember the time when Conan or Kimmel?? did a live broadcast feed from Duluth about something, maybe some guy creating an ice sculpture or something..?? Anyone remember what it was about?  I just remember a bunch of people started showing up and the guys he was interviewing were some real characters, like missing teeth and whatnot. One guy was on some kinda weird homemade moto-trike. If any one can find the video from that post it! I can’t find it anywhere. I thought it as Conan but it may have been Kimmel.

Gotta love the rappin William Shatner remix… Hurry back Conan.
