Live, local, & not so local music! C.R.E.S.

An eclectic ,local & not so local, music radio show at CFRO, Co-op Radio 100.5 FM, in Vancouver, B.C.,Canada. Heard Wednesdays 3:30-5pm. P.S.T. / 6:30-8pm E.S.T. / 7-8:30pm in Newfoundland / 11:30pm-1am U.K. / Northern Ireland time. Also heard at www.coopradio.org, on F.B. and at www.soundcloud.com/bandcouver

Music not covered by the big stations. And boy, there's a ton of it neglected by the l

ong indoctrinated, tunnel-visioned corporations. When there's only 3 major record labels left, and only 5 or 6 companies owning most of the media, choices are fewer and fewer, and your local community's uniqueness and colour is left out of the public eye. CFRO 100.5 FM / www.coopradio.org ,whenever it's open to the public and programmers again, is staffed by the odd administrative people at 370 Columbia Street, just North of Hastings. Mark Bignell is the Ministry of Everything on the show.

----Contact the show at [email protected] and on the Bandcouver FB page.----
