That’s right!

Another membership drive is approaching…

What does this mean?

It means CIUT 89.5 FM, your favourite community radio station (which is also a non-profit registered charitable organization) would appreciate any support you can offer to help us continue another year of broadcasting. The money raised goes towards programming and facility upgrades.

All of the programmers on the air are VOLUNTEERS, we don’t get paid for the time we put into preparing the shows, updating online content, or our time at the station doing programming. In fact, most of us pay to be members ourselves!

So, if you would like to support free, independent, community radio, please click the link below:

Canadian Music Fest 2012! Recommendations…

22 Mar

Hey Everyone,

If you are a music fan you will most likely be attending some Canadian Music Fest events. As you know, there are hundreds of artists in town and it is often hard to pick a venue or an act to go see since so many great performances are happening at the same time. I am going to offer some suggestions here, but I encourage you to do some of your own research or maybe just go out to a venue you like and wait to see who hits the stage. But whatever you do, discover something. See bands you didn’t know existed, explore different venues, speak to people you come into contact with. Have fun, be safe, and enjoy!

Also, just a quick tip: Popular venues (Horseshoe, Rivoli, Wrongbar, etc.) will fill up fast! So get there early and plan to stay. If you are showing up for a later performance, expect to wait in line for a bit.
