View Full Version : Swag on the Radio
(Shameless plug)
I will be interviewed on the Rob and Bo Show, on WRNO (http://www.thenew995fm.com) 99.5 FM ("The New Voice of New Orleans"), this Thursday morning, 4/26, at 6:35 am. I'll be talking about Jazzfest and Swagland, my views, tips, whatever they ask about.
Rob's web page (http://www.thenew995fm.com/pages/bowalker.html) says Look out for an email from me later today with some Jazz Fest survival tips. Whether you are a first timer or grizzled vet, you’ll appreciate these tips. ...
I also recommend reading all of the information on Swagland’s website (http://www.swagland.com) before heading out to the grounds. Some rules and prices have changed and this guy spells it all out. We are planning on having him on at the end of the week. Go find your hat and get ready for Friday!
Unless I make a complete fool of myself, there will be a second interview on 2nd Friday, 5/04, at 7:35 am.
Those of you who are not locals can hear the audio stream at http://www.995fm.com/pages/listen.html

Awesome!! But will there be a repeat for those of us who just aren't up at that hour???
They archive some of the audio on the website, dunno if my interview will be included.
On that note, if there's anyone with recording software that can record streaming audio from their soundcard, I'd love to get a copy, in case it's not archived.

I can set my alarm clock radio in NOLA to the station and hear you! Good thing it isn't a phone-in show....imagine the Threadhead Nation in a live radio discussion. :eek:

It looks like they archive all their shows. Go to their site and click On-Demand. Not up yet, but it should be within the next day. It's hourly, though, so you may have to listen to 35 minutes of weather, traffic, and right wing political commentary before you get to my part.
