"Don't worry about keeping the beat, just let the beat keep you"
...is just about one of the smartest things I ever heard. Jo Carol Pierce from Austin said it first quite a while ago now.
The best part of my week during this year has been putting together Circa Rad and letting the beat keep us. XRAY.FM has made it through the fog of 2020-21 and we are now on a bold path for an even better station where radio is yours. The weekly rhythm of Circa Rad and many other great shows continueth.
This is a member and donor supported effort through and through. There is plenty of money in the community for XRAY.FM's future and we make damn good use of what we get through our tiny mighty staff and cast of volunteer DJs. It remains some kind of fantastic miracle that we have 107.1fm and can do so on a fraction of the dollars and expenses of bigger stations like OPB. We can keep doing that with your help.
This is the most important fundraiser that XRAY.FM has ever had since our kickstarter now so long ago. The best is indeed yet to come and Circa Rad is part of the soundtrack.
I deeply thank everyone who is able to give generously this funddrive and you can count on a personal thanks from me in your snail mail among the many incentives that XRAY.FM has in store for you. Think of it as an investment in the city, the community, and your great taste in rocknroll.
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING CIRCA RAD!
You've counted on the people behind XRAY for so much this past year. Whether it was for entertainment, distraction, information, or just some live human connection when social distancing hit the hardest: we've been here for you.
As we enter the next chapter of our story, build up our community of leaders and changemakers, and forge a path towards a big future for purpose-driven media, we need your help. We need YOU to help us reflect who the people of our city are. We need YOU to build our community up to come out of this pandemic stronger. We need YOU to bring the next generation of leaders to the airwaves.
You've counted on us to make it through this year. Can we count on you to help write our next chapter?
