Alternative Milestones

Alternative Milestones Episode 39 – Fundraiser Starts Tomorrow!

Thu, Oct 24, 2024

Everyone here at WRIR is putting the finishing touches on preparations for the all-important 2024 Fall Fundraiser which officially kicks off tomorrow!  All kinds of great stuff coming up during the fundraiser including the Monster Mashquerade on Saturday at Gallery5.  I’m working on some tricks and treats for next week’s Fundraiser show ON HALLOWEEN!

As for today’s episode of the Alternative Milestones program:

  • there’s some ska with Madness & The Specials
  • there’s some funk with Infectious Grooves and Primus
  • there’s some birthdays with The Cardigans, Peter Tosh, The Dead Boys and The Lemonheads
  • there’s some Rush 🙂

And don’t forget that there are way more milestones than I have time to present during my show.  I post every milestone every day on my Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/DrJayOnTheRadio/) if you’d like to follow along and maybe let me know if there’s something you’d like to hear for any particular one that you’re interested in.
