Where It’s At – September 3

WHERE IT’S AT (MONTREAL EDITION)

Here’s Where It’s At (Montreal Edition) live blues/roots for the week starting September 3 (and beyond) courtesy of Cha Cha Cha In Blue on CKUT 90.3FM:
Voici “Where It’s At” (Montréal Edition) Blues / Roots en direct pour la semaine à partir du 3 septembre (et au-delà) gracieuseté de Cha Cha Cha en bleu sur CKUT 90.3FM:

The easiest way to get your gig on this list is if you create a Facebook event for it. That way it stays up until the date of the show and provides a link so fans can get details. If you make a single post or a graphic to announce it then I (and some of your fans) will probably miss it, especially if it’s a list of several shows. Also, I’m not going to transcribe your info.

Le moyen le plus simple d’avoir votre concert sur cette liste est si vous créez un événement Facebook pour cela. De cette façon, il reste à la date de l’émission et fournit un lien afin que les fans puissent obtenir des détails. Si vous faites un seul post ou un graphique pour l’annoncer, je le manquerai probablement (et certains de vos fans), surtout s’il s’agit d’une liste de plusieurs concerts. De plus, je ne vais pas transcrire vos informations.

WE WANT TO MAKE OPEN MIC IN THE PARK LEGIT FOR NEXT YEAR! As of next week, we will start collecting signatures for a petition to make Open Mic in the Park Legit in the eyes of the city. We plan on sending the list of signatures to our local municipal representative to show proof that a great amount of locals are supporting this initiative and would like it to continue. That way, we might get a permit for next year and be able to crank up the volume of our speakers. If you’re able to come out next week to sign the petition, that would mean a great deal to us.
