U92 To Start Booking Up All Night Shows

This just in. WVU's college radio station, 91.7 U92FM are now in charge of booking bands at the Side Pocket Pub in the Mountainlair. They just got the word from Arts and Entertainment yesterday and have already started working on getting some cool shows set up. This Friday, Meuwl will be performing and on Saturday it'll be J. Marinelli and Librarians. These shows are free.

I also understand that for later shows, they'll be trying to occasionally bring in cool out-of-town bands to spice up the mix.

    really? fucking cool. i wish they´d done that when i was there.

    when you say that U92 will book the bands, does that mean that the bands will be chosen by the station staff as a collective, or by the directors, Kim, etc?

    just curious.

    Nathan is in charge, but he is working with everyone at the station to bring in bands.
