Radio 1190's Own Rockabilly Show

First of all, I have 90 followers. That’s incredible. But everyone knows 100 is where it’s at. Tell your friends. I’m cool.

Second, the Radio 1190 Pledge Drive started today, and usually, as a way to say “thank you” for listeners pledging during our shows (phone calls only @ 303-735-7625), specialty programs put together a mix CD, usually at a pledge level of $30. Hey, we’re a non-profit. Can’t give away commercial-free music for free the entire year.

Last semester, I did a very safe, generic rockabilly mix. This semester, I wanted to do something different, spice it up. So I need opinions of what kind of rockabilly mix you’d like to receive.

So far I have:

• Rockabilly Covers
• Obscure Rockabilly
• International Rockabilly

Suggestions are welcome and your opinions matter!
