This past weekend, JMU's student-run station, WXJM, hosted the annual "COOLAID" benefit event. Though I unfortunately could not be in attendance thanks to the big lake in my way, over one hundred others were, despite the nasty Virginia weather you've been having, and the day was a success. WXJM raised over $700 and bands including Valkyrie, Ankou, Special Moments, Linda Drapper and Voyces among others performed for the good cause.
Money raised could potentially help fund MACRoCK, the Mid-Atlantic College Radio Conference which is tentatively planned for later this spring. MACRoCK is a festival showcase for independent artists, like all your favorites featured on WXJM.
Those running the event put in over 12 hours the day of the event and many more in preparation, so kudos to their hard work!
Fill me in on all the juicy details! yummm...Post a comment!
