Thanks to Jewels reminding me about Dial-a-Spazz, I decided to look Mr. Mark Powers up today. He was kind enough to allow me an interview which I will write up and post soon. He told me he still has most of the Dial-A-Spazz tapes (in their original cassette form) and might be able to digitize a bit and and share a few samples for MarinNostalgia.org as well as a video produced about him by a Public Access TV station in the late 70's/early 80's.

MarinNostalgia.org will not be complete until it formerly includes Dial-a-Spazz.

Stay tuned...

If it's the same Mark that I think it is, yes, we went to Tam High together in the 70's. He was a real character then. Always so full of energy and new ideas. I never quite understood Dial-a-Spazz, although my husband says he called in and got a kick out of it. My husband also seems to remember at times it was X-rated.

Mark has worn many hats since high school...Dial-a-Spazz, Magician, Male Stripper, Wedding Photographer/Videographer and of course Karaoke singer and DJ. His stage name is Mark Hester Power's and his business is called Goodtime Disc Jockeys. He is still doing the DJ and Karaoke thing as well as Wedding Photography and Video. My husband and I actually hired him to DJ our daughter's wedding in 2005. Check out his website http://goodtimedj.com

Oh yeah, I remember. In fact, I encountered Mark Spazz while dining in Sausalito about a year ago. He was the entertainment -- a professional Karaoke singer.

No, I don't, but I wish I did. It sounds right up my alley!
