BC> Well, we use what they have and sometimes bring our own stuff (sometime BC> it's our own, sometimes borrowed from friends). The general rule is that BC> CHCI gets it about a week after we first wanted to play it... :). They hav BC> corporate sponsor, Gatorade, and they pay for all of their equipment and an BC> CD purchases. CHCI also gets radio compilations from MCA, Sony and Warner BC> free of charge, so they're pretty stocked, generally.
Cool. That's not bad then. That's like what they do at CKmS when I wuz talking to the guy. Do you guyz get like pre-releases and promos and stuff from the music companies?? I know that CKmS does. That's cool.
BC> Yeah? Cool... We (the guy who does Forest Heights Radio with me) may BC> a show at CKWR in the summer. Joe King, the staff sponsor at CHCI knows so BC> people, I guess. It would be a bad time spot to start though... something BC> like 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM. ;)
Yeah, but in the summer that's not bad. If they give me and my friend a time slot like that, I'll just say no. Like maybe 1am or 2am is the latest, not 4am or 5am. I wouldn't mind doin it from like 6am - 8am, right before school. That's not bad.
BC> I've heard that CKMS is a smoke hole... like everybody smokes there, an BC> over the equipment and everything. Too bad, since I hear it's mostly an BC> alternative station... it would be nice to do a show there, but I couldn't BC> and wouldn't stand the smoke. Ah well.
I couldn't tell ya. I've never been down there, but it sounds cool. 8) It's mostly alternative but there is like a *HUGE* range of stuff. Like I listen to it Thursdays from 8-10 and then at 10 there's like a story telling show or sumthin. I wuz listening to it one night and they (the Wax Jungle Crew) just finished their show with like a phat song, then I wuz listening and some chick comes on and starts reading a story about a girl and her cat and all the mischief that they got into. It freaked me out!! Why would University people and older be doing this?? It wuz crazy.
