My 2011 WPRB Membership Drive show takes place on Wednesday, October 12 from 7-10 pm ET. For this year’s program there’s an actual theme: I’m playing three hours of songs about the radio.
If you have a favorite “radio song” that you want to hear please let me know!
Thank you in advance for your support of WPRB’s unique freeform programming during this year’s drive. You can pledge on-line here or by calling 609-258-1033.
Here’s this week’s links/videos/items of interest based on topics discussed during last night’s radio show.
Rest in peace Bert Jansch and Leonard Dillon.
Massive number of free downloads this week, including a short Iceage song, an Epitonic Saki session by Tyler Jon Tyler, full albums from Rational Animals and Drug Mountain, a 12″ by Australia’s New War and a preview of the Bitch Magnet box set.
