Jazz FM's 24-Hr. All Live Special Coming At The End Of This Month

Received this from SOWNY member Dani Elwell. It's pretty ambitious in an era where almost no radio station, possibly with the exception of 680 News Radio, is ever truly live 24 hours a day. 

"JAZZ.FM91 is going 100 percent LIVE for 24 hours from 4pm July 26th until 4pm July 27th.

We're blowing out our regular schedule and inviting guests and musicians to call in and/or perform. ! I asked for the 3am to 6am shift which I'll co-host with musician and JAZZ.FM91 host Rich Brown... Rich does an incredible show called New Origins.

This is gonna be crazzzzyyyyy...."


Hope it's as good a special as it sounds, but man. is that going to be a looong day!

I hope they have a lot of coffee. The only thing missing is Jerry Lewis and a telethon!

It's not "EST." That's "Eastern Standard Time." We're on EDT, or Eastern Daylight Time.

Seriously, folks - you can just use "ET" and you're never wrong that way.

They are shilling. A fundraiser with a different handle. Lots of talk a lot less music.
