I’ve noticed a for sale sign on the 8th Street Video on 9th Street store. Does anyone know why the owners are selling and what the owner’s plans are?
Also does anyone know the history of how 8th Street Video on 9th Street got its name?
What are the biggest sellers here: movies, ice cream or candy?
This was on Northland’s NewsCenter a few days ago:
Duluth is now listed as one of the five safest cities in the nation for homeless pets.
A friend of mine says that her neighbor always has dozens of cats that she feeds on her porch. I had a neighbor growing up that was the same way.

For some reason YouTube now allows me to upload clips longer than 15 minutes, so I’m able to put this online without breaking it apart. I shot most of it in Duluth on some very hot summer days back in the early 1980s. The film is older than my adult kids. I’ve never been completely happy with the narration but I still like some of the images. The title translates to “a sick man’s dream.”

Calling all computer-music fans! Dig this! 3 Reaktor ensembles running simultaneously through Live6. The main keyboard (with cleverly placed stickers) houses a dominant ‘effect’ range (left 8 white keys) and a dominant ‘loop’ range (right 8 white keys). The other two midi boards are used for volume, some delay effects, reverb (and it’s decay), and misc. VST’s. I created the loops in Live6 prior to loading them into this set to record. Enjoy!
PS: I apologize for the sound getting a bit nasty in there. it was recorded from an iPhone, hanging on a ceiling fan.
