(photo: Guardian) Live over WFMU: We just received word that we will be broadcasting Sonic Youth's set live from Battery Park on July 4th! Tune in somewhere around 4:45 PM during Hot Rod's fill-in for Billy Jam and join FMU's parkside contingent (we'll have a table area so stop by) as we usher in freeform/freakform guitar fireworks with Thurston, Lee, Steve, Kim, and Mark. And if you scored a ticket (it's sold out), don't forget to get there early for the return of the mighty Feelies. Gates at 2PM. The show is presented by River To River/Downtown Alliance with special support from WFMU as part of our 50th Anniversary and ongoing 2007-2008 Free Music Series.

At this time, unable to broadcast the Feelies live that afternoon.

Hopefully, the Feelies will give permission, or whatever needs to happen will happen -- it's not like they're signed with a record label that won't allow it, right? Mebbe they'll stick together, (record again?), and get their catalogue back in print. I haven't heard "the Good Earth" in a loooooong time! Kudos to SY for allowing the broadcast. What a fantastic double-bill -- I can't wait to see it!

Any chance of broadcasting Breckman's act? Please say he is still going to be there.

Water Records put Only Life back in print just this week! I'm hoping the follow through with the other three records.

Please get the Feelies in for a live set! I am sooooo bummed to be missing the shows this week. I hear the one last night was great.
