A New Beginning Adventure- August 6th, 2010

By the radio show this Friday, a huge amount of friends will have moved out of state to start new adventures.  Instead of doing some embarrassingly sad or bitter adventure, I decided to focus on the fact that this is really Iowa City's New Year celebration.  Newness!  New people!  New adventures!  New jobs!  New classes!  It's all pretty exciting, and all of the songs will be about new beginnings.

Please tune in this Friday from 5-7 pm central.  You can make a request during that time by calling 319-335-8970. EDIT: The show went until 6:30 due to a surprise in-studio performance.

SPEAKING OF NEW BEGINNINGS: This will be my last show within this adventure theme.  I'll be joining up with Justin and Joe of Standing on the Verge for next semester.  Tune in on Wednesdays from 8-10 pm central.
