About 50 years ago...

 

Tune in Saturday at Noon PDT for the *official* launch of a broadcast extravaganza entering its sixth year!  Sometimes that's just the way things go.

Behold the Quinquagenary!

Now you say it, <kwin"-kwaj'-en-air-ee>.

That word refers to the 50th anniversary of something.  Since early 2018, I've been presenting material from live Grateful Dead concerts that happened close to my air date, but 50 years earlier; hence this being year six.

Soon I'll have attached the appropriate moniker to all the old versions of this special on the KBOO website, so you can find them easily.  As previously promised, I'm aiming for three of these shows this year, although having been pre-empted in February and March could force reconsideration (since there are also no November or December options).

This time through, I'm fortunate to have an Oregon show (Portland even!) to include.  So give a listen and if you dig it, support KBOO with a reasonable financial contribution. It is our fundraising drive after all.
