Happy Halloween! This was the first post-Funding Drive show. Many thanks to all who pledged, both on Breaking The Tethers and on other CJSW programs. As mentioned in an earlier posting, the 2011 total for BTT was $2100, a new record! Anyway, to the music... A true dog's breakfast this week, just the way I planned it :-). More of the same for the Nov. 7 episode (probably!).

Breaking The Tethers Funding Drive Show
I wasn't able to host the Funding Drive edition of Breaking The Tethers today but a whole host of CJSW programmers filled in for me and did a great job. This was reflected in the pledge total for the show, which was a whopping $2100, over twice what I was hoping! Many, many thanks to those who pledged!
Back next week, Oct. 31, 2011, with a "regular" show.

While the Oct. 10 program had a strong jazz slant, this one's all over the map; jazz, black metal, punk, folk, jamming, experimental stuff, totally weird ("Hobo chang ba"!), etc. In many ways, this is the kind of show I aim to present.
One last mention: As of posting, the annual CJSW funding drive has just begun. I've made my pledge and I'm hoping readers of this blog will follow. A plege on Breaking The Tethers would very much be appreciated!
