Burning Vinyl Radiothon Gig
Start: 19:30
End: 23:59
For over 30 years, 3CR has become synonymous with radical causes, and for good reason. We got our mojo and its still working a treat! But we have to pay for it to the tune of over two hundred grand each year; and as one of the oldest (and most fabulous) independent music programs on community radio in Melbourne, Burning Vinyl kicks in to stay on air. How do we do it? The power of music, dear friends, the power of music. And so on Saturday 26 July at 7pm, we're putting on a bang at The Tote. The damage is $10/8 so get your concession card and your slush fund together, come down and join us. Bands, Djs, BBQ, 3CR Stall, Art exhibition & a raffle.

SATURDAY 26TH JULY 2008
DOORS OPEN AT 7:00PM
