Greg Baise on WCBN tomorrow, and on shiny, white, super-skinny American Apparel mannequins everywhere

By Mark | January 26, 2012

I have a friend named Greg Baise. If you’ve ever been to see a band in the metro Detroit area, chances are you’ve probably seen him. He’s probably the best connected guy I know when it comes to music, having promoted shows for over a decade, and done tons of other stuff in the industry. [...]

An ad for the Mark Maynard Manhug shirt

By Mark | September 28, 2010

Remember how I told you that a local band here in Ypsi called Manhug had appropriated my image for a t-shirt? Well, I know I shouldn’t be helping them out, and giving them ideas as to how they might be able to sell more, but I’ve had this idea that I think is terrific. Do [...]

By Mark | June 13, 2010

I’m working on the script for the June 18 episode of Dreamland Tonight right now, and it’s shaping up to be pretty good. In addition to the mayoral debate, we’ve got the incomparable Charlie Slick performing a few songs, and a couple of other surprises. It should be fun… So, if it’s not on your [...]
