WVCW http://wvcw.org WVCW's Student Run Radio Thu, 25 Feb 2010 15:23:23 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 Listen Up! http://wvcw.org/2010/02/05/listen-up/ http://wvcw.org/2010/02/05/listen-up/#comments Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:55:57 +0000 admin http://wvcw.org/?p=293 A Few Notes From The General Manager:

1. This site’s not very good – we know, we’re working on rolling out a much better looking site – keep checking back for it.

2. Streaming Us: http://www.wvcw.org/listen.m3u is the stream. Click it and it should start downloading/playing in your default media player (Windows Media Player, iTunes, etc.) – IF THIS DOES NOT WORK: Check to see if any plug-ins are installed on your browser that may not let your default media player play our stream. DO NOT USE VCU WIRELESS – IT WON’T WORK!

3. If you’re interested in working with us, contact me: hello@wvcw.org so I can put you on the mailing list and find out how to get started!

This means that we have become truly free format, allowing for more possibilities with the way we play our music.

This also means that we need some help with deciding what to play- definitely call in a request, send us a playlist, or even come here and become apart of our staff!

Let The Radio Revolution Begin!

What exactly is a music meeting? My view for these music meetings is everyone getting together and express opinion.

I’ll play music that I recieved to you guys and you give me your honest opinion about it. (It kicks ass! It sucks! My grandma would love it! This needs to burn!, etc, etc.) Think of it as your chance to have some say around here. Plus, I want you guys to give me opinions, if you got someone that you think deserves to be on air…bring a copy of their music and we can decide as a group.

Got something you want to share with me? Bring it!!! Like I said, I want us to work together…
This use to be a common thing back in the day at WVCW..its time for it to be resurrected.

I plan on this happening on Sept 30th (Next Wed.) at 6 pm (or around 7 if people want me to move the time back an hour). Be There!!!

-Mark “Kazie” Turner,
WVCW Music Director
