CJAM's 2011 Pledge Drive: Stayin' Alive...

What we all want...
Thank you to everyone who has pledged to keep CJAM 99.1-fm alive for another glorious year of original broadcasting.

If you haven't made your yearly donation to the best campus-community radio station in the world yet, click on over to cjam.ca, where it couldn't be easier to contribute to this year's "drive to stay alive!"

Any amount that you can afford to contribute is genuinely appreciated, folks. Check out the incentives. The beer stein is the star of the pledge drive -- it's a first edition. I think it's the best-looking thank you gift we've ever had. No mere photo does justice to the beauty of this here stein.

Have a blast of good fun and support CJAM simultaneously by attending the DUBSTEP DANCE PARTY event on THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10 at The Room on 255 Ouellette, featuring a performance by Windsor's own dubstepper Dstruct.O!

As you can see from the poster our wonderful friend Martin Deck, a.k.a. DJ Zonk from CJAM's "Wake The Town" will be spinning tunes in a dubstep stylee before the show. He promises to play some massive Jamaican dub tracks and a bit of that digital too, and perhaps a side order of drum-n-bass. Anyway, he's got the roots of dubstep on tap, y'all! DJ Zonk is from the "college where you get your musical knowledge!" See?

Kero, yet another great CJAM DJ, has been added to the roster for this show. Step up, steppers!

All proceeds go to CJAM's Pledge Drive 2011.
