The Crazy Train CHSR-FM Fundrive Radio-A-Thon Edition

newCTlogo_03012015

Saturday was the CHSR-FM 2015 Fundrive Radio-A-Thon. We raised over $300 for the Indie GoGo Campaign!

The Crazy Train it self pulled in $30 from a 13 CD auction in which you the listeners bid on! Great job by Mama G (not her real name) for winning the auction and the CDs!

So we played lots of locals in the first hour, including some Hero’s Last Rite, Green Lung Grinders, Kickin’ Krotch, Death Valley Driver and so much more.

In hour II… Ohhh Hour II… Well we started out playing some great Metal, but as the auction wasn’t seeing a lot of action, things got drastic and we turned to Anne Murray and her Christmas hit ‘It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas’ in an attempt to irritate listeners into participating in the auction…. That didn’t seem to work, so expect a lot more Anne Murray in the future seeing as Metalheads seem to really like her music… JUST KIDDING!

Tune in this upcoming Saturday as we play an interview with Black Crown Initiate, which was done by our roving reporter Johnny James, while the band was in town last week playing a show at the Capital with Siegebreaker and Blueprints.

Our CHSR Fundrive is still on, and we’re hoping you can PLEASE contribute! Your money helps keep us on the air, it helps maintain our aging equipment as well as helps us support events around the city.
