Fresh Air: March 2009

March 2009:

The Fresh Air live show broadcast sadly draws to a close this month for this Semester. Luckily we have a bevvy of social events to ease the pain.

First up we have the beloved Twist n Shout, back again to deliver Fresh Air’s monthly dose of 50s and 60s Rock and Roll. This month sees the return of T&S live band veterans The Tri-Tones heading up entertainment for the night which as always costs just £2 to get in before midnight, £3 after.

Next we have the Fresh Air Charity Auction taking place on Tuesday 10th March at City Cafe from 8pm. Lots include everthing from Paintballing sessions, meals out, salon experiences and even internships! Check out the forums for more details and to start bidding.

Finally we have the immense Indie Club Together, the Jewel In Fresh Air’s Crown. This indie extravaganza will take place at the award winning Cabaret Voltaire on Blair Street on Thursday 26th March and will feature the best indie DJs across a range of Edinburgh nights coming together to perform a collection of not to be missed sets. The full line up will be announced later this week, but I’d start getting excited now.

The live show broadcast ends on Friday 27th March so pack in listening hours whilst you can. After that Fresh Air will still be broadcasting, but it’ll be 100% music until shows kick off again for a short but sweet broadcast in April.

Check out the Fresh Air forums to keep abreast of station and Edinburgh happenings, in the mean time happy listening!
