Minnesota Pro Wrestling historian George Schire and Glen Braget chat with former WWWF/WWF champion Bob Backlund about the release of his book “Backlund: From All-American Boy to Professional Wrestling’s World Champion.”
For this special Centerstage MN we’ll spend the full hour with The Limns!
When The Limns performed at the Blue Ox in Bemidji for KBXE’s Spread the Love party, I sat down with them before the concert and recorded a conversation about their new album “Move Around Robots”.
From Minneapolis, with strong ties to the Bemidji area (Zacc and Zeke of The Limns are younger brothers of Caleb from Bemidji’s Uncle Shurley), The Limns are hard to classify…, a high energy rock band with influences of reggae, pop and funk. Or as Javon said during our conversation, “…if The Beatles and Bob Marley had kids”.
With a couple EPs under their belt, their first full length album “Move Around Robots,” is an excellent piece of work that not only shows a maturity and cohesiveness in the band, but also great ears for writing catchy tunes. It’s a fun and insightful conversation – don’t miss it!
Also, we recorded the performance! CSMN will start off with selections from The Limns scaled-down acoustic opening set, and after the interview we’ll end with highlights from the full band rockin’ the night away.
KUMD continues our Art Week special with an artists interview with Jon Smithers. A nature photographer who is participating in the annual juried Park Point Art Fair which takes place each June at the end of Minnesota Point in Duluth. Here, Smithers shares his work with host Chris Harwood.
