And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.  So turn it up man, Let's go crazy, Let's get nuts, Let's look for the purple banana, 'Til they put us in the truck, and let's go!

-Fredrich Nietzsche, Prince and The Guy Who Wrote the Freedom Rock Commercials

If these 2 or so great writers of the past 3 centuries can come together and create such a profoundly confusing quote, we also can come together in a whirlpool of DANCE....Dancing like you’ve never danced before.  One huge catalyst to Milwaukee's "Danceability" is Radio Milwaukee. Your gift to my personal “Karaoke Like a Boss... I mean Karaoke for a Cause" fundraising campaign will not only allow us to build what could be the largest dance vortex of all time, but it will go a long way to ensure 88Nine is able to continue expanding their positive impact on the air, and within our community.  

For those of you that aren’t Radio Milwaukee listeners yet, It’s similar to the Purple Banana, you may not know what it is but it’s probably a good thing.  Unlike the Purple Banana you can turn on the radio right now and discover Radio Milwaukee.  Radio Milwaukee (88.9 FM) has really been a catalyst in the transformation of our city. As a nonprofit public radio station, Radio Milwaukee’s one-of-a-kind format is designed to unite people and build community through great music and compelling stories: on the air, online and in the community.

But Radio Milwaukee’s impact goes beyond the airwaves, beyond even the website and social media. In addition to great music and stories, 88Nine benefits our community as a whole and is elevating Milwaukee’s image, livability and dance-ability. Radio Milwaukee engages and attracts people to our city like an eddy blends the ocean currents.  The station promotes the kind of unique, authentic culture that makes people love living here. Now its time....  Time to part with just a little bit your hard earned money in the support of Radio Milwaukee's mission to make this city a more inclusive and engaged community.

Please support what I hope is an unprecedented performance, as well as this great organization, by making your donation today.

You might also want to consider purchasing a ticket for yourself, your loved ones, your party friends your acquaintances, you neighbor (I’m pretty sure you can't bring pets, plus its going to be so loud and rocking that might considered cruel so its a good idea just to skip that).  So join me, join me in not only attending this event, but dancing like you’ve never danced before.  I need your energy, and my energy needs you, and your energy along with my energy will likely create a massive energy cone that could possibly carry us all to another zip code.  (you probably notice by now that I'm really into cones and cylonic references of late)   88Nine has put together a pretty terrific & celebratory evening of interactive fun and Milwaukee-centric food & beverages. Visit radiomilwaukee.org/FallBall for tickets and more event information.   See you there!

Lets Get This Party Started Right!  NO AMOUNT IS TOO SMALL!

So So Sincerely
