The Best of the Kitsch Niche - 3 minutes of pure comedy!!

Tropicalia and Beyond (revisited)

"My long-suffering people said farewell to their pain to see a band go by - playing love songs" - Chico Buarque (from his song 'A Banda')

The 'Tropicalia' music of the late '60s and early '70s, in many ways, followed the trends of the UK and US: protest songs, psychedelic experimentation, a hippy return to strumming and shouting, heavy rock-glam and so on. Yet, distinct elements of traditional Brazilian culture were embedded (both sincerely and ironically) within the Tropicalia movement creating a unique musical world cohabited by the old and new - and also its fair share of controversy.

Gorsh!  It's the 3rd annual Kitsch Niche Disneyland Birthday Celebration!  Join Strike next Monday, July 20th, starting at 7 pm PST as he marvels you with fun and rare audio from the history of Walt's fantasmic playland.  Music, documentary, ride audio, commercials...3 whole hours of Disneyland heaven!  Don't forget you can podcast it later if you can't make it to the show that night.  Come to the Happiest Place on Earth...Disneyland?  Heck no!  The Kitsch Niche!!  Just be careful if you decide to take the monorail there.  KABLAM!!
