Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

It's a Funky Tuesday here at WMRK Internet Radio - "All Hits, All The Time"® so here are a couple of Solid Gold funky classics to get yo booty shakin' this morning!



Back to Stirling for today's shave. Stirling Noir is of course an homage to Drakkar Noir, a frag that takes me waaaay back.. I've worn this since the 80's and had it on the night I met the girl who would one day become my wife. ❤️❤️❤️

Great scent and lather! Three passes produces a DFS+ and I finished with the matching splash and a spray of Drakkar.. Nice!

Hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

Sorry for my absence yesterday. A lot going on here at work and I didn't have time to do much more than lurk. But let's get some music going with a couple of songs that are tied in to today's shave. Hope you enjoy!



Fantastic shave this morning. Went back to CBL's "Bee-Spoke" shave soap and tonic. Love the scent and performance. Three passes and I finished with matching tonic and a spray of Zoologist "Bee" EdP.

Hope you have a great day. :)

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant weekend.

Let's get some tunes going this Monday morning with a new band I discovered over the weekend. Great retro early 80's Dark Wave/New Wave, Post Punk in the vein of Cocteau Twins and Dead Can Dance. Hope you enjoy.


Great shave this morning! Went with @CBLSoap.com "Cigar Shop Hombre" soap. Fantastic scent and lather. Three passes for a DFS+ and I finished with a splash of "Cigar Aficionado" after shave and a spray of "Havana" EdT.

Hope you have a great day. :)

I love Dead Can Dance! I always wanted to get a chain necklace that had a pendant that said Momento Mori - found a cool one - but never pulled the trigger.

Have a great day my friend!
