Tony Coulter:
Hullo dere. Tony Coulter here, ready to do my bit for station and stream. Pledges to this show will both help support the station and validate the programming of Give the Drummer Radio and yours truly. I've cooked up a special premium, available for a pledge of $75, and even put myself up for adoption, for a mere $365. (Don't worry, I've had all my shots and my teeth were recently cleaned.) | |

After spending 19 brilliant years on the air at WFMU, Tony moved to the left coast and lost his radio show. Through the miracle of (Al Gore's) Internet and WFMU's boundless creativity, Tony is back on the air, everywhere, making beautiful radio here on the stream. A pledge of support for Tony, is a pledge of support for the stream. A pledge for the stream supports WFMU which makes it all happen. Please make it happen and make a pledge! |

BIG THANKS ALERT...BIG THANKS ALERT Illustrious radio host DAN BODAH has pledged a premium-sized pledge, adding: "I'm so glad Tony is still making great radio via the awesome Give the Drummer Radio stream!"

Danny Kalb of the Blues Project was pretty much a permanent fixture at my local coffee shop back when I lived in Park Slope. I can still see him in my mind's eye. |
|

Tue. 2/21/12 12:56pm
tonyc:
Weirdly, he looked pretty much the same as he did 40 years earlier. |
|
|
Tue. 2/21/12 12:57pm

Maybe that last remark will get a pledge from Danny Kalb! But if not him, why not you? |

Hey, if this marathon goes well, I may even be able to upgrade my equipment situation over here. I'm still basically doing caveman radio -- would love to push onwards and upwards. Please pledge to support the stream and this show!! |

Pledge for the funky Jesus stuff! Or to stop the funky Jesus stuff. Plus, if you adopt me, I'll play whatever you want. |

Tue. 2/21/12 1:09pm

Can I pull you aside and talk to you in confidence: This show needs a LOT more pledges coming in. Please, please -- pledge for station and stream!! |

As Doug said, pledging is easy via the pledge box at the top of this playlist page. And your pledges can be paid off over a long period of time. |

There are more new programs in the works for Give the Drummer Radio! You contributions make it possible for WFMU to spend its precious resources on crazy, wonderful experiments like this webstream. Support crazy wonderful creativity and support Tony on Give the Drummer Radio. |

Come on, people -- shake some pledge action! We need much more pledge help and listener love around here.... |
|
Tue. 2/21/12 1:21pm
FYI:
when you hit the pledge button for Tony's show on the homepage it's crediting Ken's show | |

tonyc:
FYI: Ack! Doug: Know anything about that? |

Tue. 2/21/12 1:26pm

All fixed. The two letter code was wrong. Must've gone to some default (oh that evil Ken). If anyone has pledged to Tony, but haven't been thanked here, leave a comment and let us know. |
|
|
Tue. 2/21/12 1:29pm
tonyc:
Yes, please do report in if you pledged to the show but weren't thanked. And everyone else: now is a better time than ever to pledge! |

We're now at the halfway point of this marathon shift. Really could use a LOT more pledges, people!! Please consider pledging -- any amount helps! |

Tue. 2/21/12 1:45pm
Doug S.:
Even just one Mouse of Today pledge in full would help us to the goal. When you pledge $180 or more, you can pay your pledge in monthly installments. Won't someone, one person, step up and boldly GO THERE! Show Tony you appreciate his fine ear, kind voice and killer music. |

It noh funny -- but it would be if you would pledge! |

Do not wait to pledge! Make a commitment to contribute now. You do NOT HAVE TO PAY your pledge now. Just pledge your support now and pay it when you can. If just ONE LISTENER does the heroic deed and pledges a full dollar-a-day (Mouse of Today) pledge right now, we will hit our goal for the show. Be our hero (heroes)!! |

I'll take pity pledges at this point. I'll even take putty pledges. C'mon people, help support the stream and station! Any amount would be great! |

As you've probably noticed, I'm not able to offer up prizes today. But there's still plenty of SWAG available -- stuff you get automatically when you pledge. And my premium will be yours for a pledge of $75. Pledge-o, pledge-o, pledge-o!!!! |
|

Tue. 2/21/12 2:36pm
tonyc:
Less than half an hour left -- I can really use some pledges at this point! (Not just me, of course, but Give the Drummer Radio and the stream.) Please help with a pledge of any size! |
|
Tue. 2/21/12 2:36pm
Van in DC:
I still can't figure out how all the pledging works. In Oct., I paid immediately every pledge and always got a different pledge number, so I never got anything more than a t-shirt. This time...is my "pledge number" my listener number...? Do I use that same number if I make another pledge on, say, Doug's show later? And it all adds up...? | |
|
|
♥
Tue. 2/21/12 2:41pm
Doug S.:
I'm really not sure how to answer you Van, other than saying THANK YOU. If you email Joe McGasko at the station, he handles all listener/pledger questions and fulfillment. He's the most friendliest guy in the world, too. |

Tue. 2/21/12 2:42pm

We're almost out of time here, folks -- please help me to do what I can to raise shekels for stream and station. PLEDGE!!! |

thanks tony and doug for the show and stream, and of course all pledgers. still time between now & 3 or today and next tuesday to rope some friends in who like tony's kind of tunes. don't forget your social networks, too, in case you've got online fmu friends who may have overlooked the pre-mara media blitz.
