Welcome Back

Welcome back to a new semester of the deliciousness that is WMLU Radio! Great to see new faces, and all those old faces. The website will be going through some changes over the next couple of weeks (pages actually being up for instance). All that stuff will be fixed, and radio shows will be up A.S.A.P. It will be a little slow going however, since I will be in New York and Knoxville during the next three weeks. Remember, meetings at 9PM in 201 Hiner.

And the winner is...

Three cheers for this year's Battle of the Bands winner, Go Indigo. They will have the honor and pleasure of performing at Bandfest 2008. Woooo! There will be a little surprise posted up for Halloween. Here's a hint: it's ghostalicious.

Oktoberfest!

Battle of the Bands will take place during Oktoberfest, on Friday, October 5th. The Schedule is as follows.

5:00 5 Second Rule

5:30 Go Indigo

6:00 Jackie Stem

6:30 Jump the Tracks

7:00 Midnight Surf Party

7:30 Erin Wind

8:00 Vint Hill

It will be outside on the stages if, and it's always a big if, it doesn't rain. But it's not supposed to. Hope for dry skies.

Battle of the Bands

You asked for it, so here it is. The battle of the bands application is now available on the webiste. Get to submitting those things, already!
