Please Visit New space for updated playlists!

Happy Sunday!

Seeing that my last post was in December of 2007, I figure I should give you a quick update.

The Christmas vacation in Canada was WONDERFUL !!! Great Weather - Great Food - Great Friends and Family.
Returned back to Austin, all set to begin a new year of
THIS GREAT WHITE NORTH, and found that the studios had been torched by an arson!! Yes - KOOP seems to attract firebugs...

After 6 weeks off the air, KOOP returned with borrowed equipment and donated studio space(Thank you ENTERCOM). Its now April, and we are still working on the recovery plan. We hope to be back in our own space by late summer( whatever that means...)

We appreciate all the support that you have given to independent radio, and hope that you will continue to stick around in the future!

I have now moved my weekly playlists to my MYSPACE page and my page on the KOOP site.
Please visit them and check out the tunes. Email me any requests or comments!
THISGREATWHITENORTH@HOTMAIL.COM

Cheers!!!
