Successful membership drive!

Thanks to everyone who helped make this past membership drive a success! I have the best audience in the world!

Thursday, May 14, 2009

Playlist 5/10/2009 & 5/17/2009

We're engaged in a membership drive this week (May 10) and next week (May 17), so there won't be any playlists posted for those shows. I do play music, mainly from featured premiums, but the show is too fluid for accurate record keeping.

Please listen and pledge, if you are so moved. It's the station's first membership drive in two years and the station (and my show) needs your support. Everything will revert to relative normalcy starting with the May 24 show.

Thank you.
