About Plan9 Records, founded by Glenn Danzig in 1977.

The following is a quote from Wikipedia about the distributed OS developed and used at Bell Labs:

Its full name is _Plan9 from Bell Labs_, which comes from Ed Wood's film described as the worst ever sci-fi film Plan 9 from Outer Space [2]. The project's mascot character, Glenda, is also named after another Ed Wood work, Glen or Glenda. The early (i.e., makeshift) window system (which also implies "not quite 9") is a reference to Federico Fellini's masterpiece "8 1/2", suggesting its succession to UNIX through hacker-style jokes.

Apparently. Was it popular back then?

Apparently, in slang, it can also refer to ages 9 to 13, but I wonder if it's more about a "boy's heart" or youthful spirit in this context.
