Upcoming Local 518 shows

We're getting busy in the studios again! We just had Jesse Stewart in to record some new songs, and it was great! Chris did not forget to start the recording when the interview was in progress like last time. (Don't ask!) Tentatively, the show is scheduled for 6/27 & 29.

Princess Mabel is releasing their new CD. A bunch of Collar City releases are coming! Princess Mabel are coming to the studios on 6/10. We hope to turn the show around for air on 6/13 and 15 during our upcoming fund drive.

Speaking of the fund drive, thanks to everyone who helped during our quick two day drive recently. We're on a quest to raise the money needed to keep the station going. You can do your part at www.exit977.org. Thanks!

CRUMBS Cafe is on the air!

Last week, we aired the first in a series of CRUMBS Cafe programs. It was two episodes from the famous online radio show/podcast from CRUMBS.net. It's great as it accomplishes two of our goals! We wanted to play more local music than any other station, and now we have not just our Local 518 show (Fri 7p/Sun 11a), but CRUMBS Cafe, which features local band interviews and performances. The other thing we wanted to do was have listeners help generate content - or make programs with us.

Thanks, Mike!

This week's show features: Della and part two of the Sirsy interview. Fridays at 8p, CRUMBS Cafe has hit the air on 97.7 EXT.

Coming May 23rd is Jesse Stewart!
