The Plankman Show Podcast 10-14-2026
We have a awesome show for you this week. I started off with some Baseball music as I was in a baseball mood after spending time at Comerica Park Wednesday. Ok now that I got that out of my system lets get into the ROCK! We sort of previewed the Upcoming show at OddFellows this saturday night by playing Ray Street Park & The Creeping Chaos. We played Psychostick for Ted then we got on to a Dream Theater tangent & I couldn’t be stopped! I mean they are the greatest band ever! So that was pretty much the rest of the show as I can’t play just 1 Dream Theater song. Can’t wait for their 17th studio album. If I missed anything it can be heard by clicking the play button on the player & listening to whatever I left out. Thanks for tuning in Folks!

The Plankman Show Podcast 10-01-2026
We started off the show with 3 from Mick Blankenship cause his music's been stuck in my head all week. Then we thought why not play some of the bands on the bill at The Token 10/2. So we played Hamshackle & Days Of Disaster so you could hear some of what you'll hear at The Token Lounge. We also played Ray Street Park, Nothing New In Heaven, Valkries Fire, Shadow Of The Talsiman & of course Royal Bliss. We also had a technical glitch or in other words I muted the wrong channel. I left that in so you could laugh at my mistake. Anything I left out can be heard by clicking play & listening at your own risk. Check us out on all your favorite streraming platforms. Thanks for listening & reading.
