HINT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (12/3/11)

30 Nov

Hint:

It can happen to chords, to horizons, to a generation, even to Paradise. But that’s only half the story. The rest will be found by listening Saturday night at 10:00 PM.

In other news, I will be sitting in for Will Duchon at The Night Cafe, Friday night at 10:00 on WMNR with an hour of jazz vocals. And this time I promise: no out-of-control Silly String and no police. Check out the show’s Facebook page for more details.

HINT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (11/26/11)

23 Nov

How’s this for a hint?  The theme is “Music We’re Thankful For.” I announced that weeks ago, so you don’t have to guess this week. Aren’t you thankful for that already?  

Tune in to hear my choices, plus music other broadcasters at the station and listeners are thankful for, too.

Turntable For One.  Saturday night at 10:00.  Live radio on WMNR and wmnr.org
