AADL Talks To: Dick Siegel, Singer-Songwriter and Musician
Dick Siegel is an Ann Arbor singer-songwriter and musician who has written and performed regionally and nationally for over 40 years. In this episode, Dick talks with us about his musical influences and how a cross-country road trip and open mic nights at the Ark inspired him to start writing his own songs. Dick also sings some of his favorite lyrics for us and discusses how they were inspired by friends, family, neighbors, or -- as in the song “Angelo’s” -- a beloved local restaurant.
Check out Dick’s records at AADL. You can also watch his 2006 discussion on The Fine Art of Songwriting.

The Champs! Here are the jubilant victors of Slauson Junior High's morning seventh grade "Flag Football" team, who won their title last week at a "Superbowl" playoff between morning and afternoon teams. Slauson is on a split shift this year. Tackling is not allowed in flag football, but flags on the boys' belts must be grabbed instead. This was the first playoff at Slauson between morning and afternoon teams. The happy winners are (back row, from left) Dewey Sexton, Dave Worley, Jeff Bodley, Ted Wilson and Herbert Twining and (front row, from left) Kenneth Richardson, Steve Vangelatos, Mark Newton (captain), Dean Kokales and Clifford Newbury.
