WFMU 2011 Pledge drive is on!


I’ve been listening to WFMU since highschool and there has never been any shortage of original entertainment left of the dial on 91.1. from talking dial-in shows hosted by the likes of writer Tom Scharpling or 7 Second Delay where there is really no point other than asking people some mundane things for an hour. On the flip side I’ve discovered so much amazing music it’s even hard to fathom the audible experience without them anymore – trust me you won’t be able to keep up. So if yer some sort of hipster (you know what I’m talking about ) it’s worth the while to tune-in and dig into your pocket and give what you can. It’s the station that keeps on giving. I personally could wear a different WFMU T-shirt or bumper sticker every night of week for months (might need washin’) to get your attention. So the least I can do is turn you on to them and some of the cool schwagg you can get with a simple pledge. See it as a investment in the future of music. You’ll get much enjoyment anytime you may randomly tune in and not to mention that your modest donation can/will also be considered a tax right-off for your personal bail-out. Do it for Charlie Sheen’s Tiger blood if anything.

Here’s some past goodness you can expect:
Pillow Fight MP3 by Sloan live from Cherries Jubileeee!: Terre T’s Wfmu Marathon Premium 2009
Deltone Rock MP3 by Dick Dale from Michael Shelley presents Cut That Out!
I Should Have Known Better MP3 by The Skatelites Also from a Michael Shelly Cut that Out Vol1
Walk, Don’t Run MP3 by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass from Cut That Out Vol 2!
I Shall Be Released (Bob Dylan cover) MP3 by Jeff Buckley Live over the phone jams with a band that is live in the studio. This is a classic example of what you get. If you’re not crying by the end you’re not human.

More sample pledge premiums on beware of the blog.

Upcoming: Wire and Mike Watt will be playing live in April on Brian Turners show.
Feel the magic.
