News Flash: WFMU Broadcasting Assorted Sets Live from ATP

Flyer2_2 WFMU is pleased to announce that the station will be broadcasting and streaming live from the huge All Tomorrow's Parties festival (curated by My Bloody Valentine) next weekend up at Kutsher's Resort near Monticello, New York. As of now, WFMU will be live Saturday and Sunday (September 20/21) at the site, but our ability to be there Friday may change as well, stay tuned. On board: Yo La Tengo, Polvo, Dinosaur Jr., Growing, Harmonia, Om, Mercury Rev, Lightning Bolt, Bob Mould, Low, Wooden Shjips, Silver Mt. Zion, Brian Jonestown Massacre, Spectrum, and more! Before MBV fans get too worked up, we should mention that our broadcast permissions have all been given subject to the bands' approvals and some are still pending/in channels of communication. But as you can see above, we've worked out things with a mighty healthy chunk of the weekend's unbelievable roster. We're still hammering away on this and making preparations for a dual-stage broadcast; news may change day to day, so please stay tuned to our site and airwaves for listings of exact set times we'll be able to carry. The festival, by the way, was rumored to be sold out, but as of today is not, so please check in with ATP for more info. If any WFMU listeners have tickets and would like to help out the station in some capacity during the weekend we'd love to hear from you. You can contact our Volunteer Director Scott Williams.
