The Goth Magician

This post refers to or was inspired by this.
More random stuff I caught on tv. The Space channel is showing a special about Criss Angel a.k.a. The Mind Freak

I'm not a big fan of magic and magicians but I have to admit this guy really impressed me. Plus he's got the whole "The Crow / Marilyn Manson" thing going... pretty cool.

Update: his web site is pretty lame compared to what I just saw on tv

Radio Revolution

This post refers to or was inspired by this.
I just saw this fascinating documentary on CBC Newsworld about a Windsor radio station that apparently dominated the US market in the late 60's and early 70's.

Any fan of Rock 'n Roll / Pop music history will love this.

Who knew that one of the most powerful people in the music biz of the time was a single mother of three from little old Windsor Ontario...

The station was essentially killed by the CanCon rules and general CRTC bureaucratic idiocy.
