The 2011 Fundraiser for Freeform KDVS 90.3 FM in Davis, California--the terrestrial home-base of this here radio program--begins at the stroke of 12 midnight this Sunday. This is the one week per year we ask our listeners to support us with their donations. Any pledge of $15 or more gets my Live on Art for Spastics (2010-2011) compilation CD, plus other KDVS-related merchandise. An extra $5 gets you more musical gifts, $40 gets you all of the above plus a KDVS t-shirt, and $100 gets you each and every DJ-created compilation CD of this outstanding radio station, or you can host your own show or handpick one of our DJs to take your party to the next level. This is how KDVS raises over 2/3 of our annual budget.

And it's validation for all the hours of sifting through boxes of music, combing through shelves of music, staying on top of limited-edition releases, and picking the corn kernels among demos...all to provide you two hours per week of the best stuff that I was really stoked about and wanted you to hear. PLUS...begging and pleading with bands from all across the globe to NOT skip Sacramento or Davis on their west coast tour, and encouraging more and better music from our musical youth of Sacramento, and making friends outta strangers for the sake of having fun and rocking the fuck out in one of the rarest of D-I-Y music spaces which Sacto is lucky to have. KDVS does a lot to help make this area a place worth living in. I swear....I woulda moved about 10 years ago or more if KDVS folded in the early 90s when the chips were falling fast. Or if they closed the doors to the community/non-student volunteers. I'm sure I would probably be in Portland if that were the case.

Watch for a new AFS post in the next couple days when I announce the track-list of Live on Art for Spastics (2010-2011), plus more specific info about how to make your pledge.

Thanks!
DJ Rick
