Thanks for listening!

Ugh. Don't believe almost anything I say today. For example: when I said some nonsense into the mic about Michael Jackson, I meant George Michael, so listener beware.

Except when I told you that The Books are at The Crofoot Ballroom in Pontiac, Michigan tonight. That is actually a true fact.

Also CJAM's Pledge Drive really does start this Friday, October 29th. We're all looking forward to talking up the Jammin' One, hearing from our listeners, and attending CJAM parties! Kickoff Party at FM Lounge this Friday. Also please consider CJAM Movie Night at Phog Lounge on Tuesday, November 2nd.
