Radio Show Playlist: 6/25/08

LAST SHOW!

Well that's it. Audiversity's reign on 88.7 WLUW-FM Chicago has come to a close. On July 1st, WLUW will no longer be listener-supported community radio; instead it is reverting back to Loyola's student-run station, and most likely with it, all of the downfalls and short-sightedness of college radio. As solely a community member, I will no longer be welcome to contribute. There is no animosity, it's just the reality of the situation, and I am ready to move on to bigger and better things. What exactly is this bigger and better thing? It is the Chicago Independent Radio Project! A brand new station is in the works that will be potentially launching this summer on the web. This will be Audiversity's new home, and I hope all of you will follow us there. The show will be new and improved and hopefully taken to brand new levels. Thanks for listening for the last 2-and-a-half years if you are a WLUW listener, and I'm looking forward to developing this idea even further. Cheers.

I really enjoyed discussing music with you all. Thanks for the warm reception, and hopefully we'll reconnect soon.
