THANK YOU ALL.
« on: March 12, 2008, 01:53:38 PM »
Sorry for the delay in getting this up. I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everybody who pledged and supported WFMU overall and The Best Show On WFMU in particular. You are all fantastic and I appreciate your generosity.

In particular I would like to thank the following people who made TBSOWFMU marathon shows come off so amazingly.

At WFMU - Brian, Ken, Scott, Liz, Kenzo, Chad and Doron all helped immensely.

Mel with the podcasts. Always a hero.

Rebecca Lewis for archives. The best!

Omar. A champion forever.

Christopher Moses for his incredible graphic talents and vision.

Brian Michael Weaver aka Neil Numberman for his jaw dropping poster design.

John Kuramoto for his work in helping get that thing ready for print. I forgot you last night and Im embarrassed! Thanks, John.

Associate Producer Mike, as always. Just the best.

Terre T. The Queen of WFMU.

Hatch and Pseu, my two co-hosts for the shows. Thank you both for putting up with whatever that whole thing was.

Ted Leo, Ben Gibbard and Patton Oswalt, who gave their time and talents and money to the station and made Week Two something I'll never forget.

Henry Owings for his heroic effort in making the Patton CD EP a reality in no time flat, jumping in head first. Thank you.

Little Friends Of Printmaking for helping with the artwork for the Patton CD EP.

Marcia Neumeier for her web and mailing assistance, which got the word out and helped so much.

Jason Slack for fighting the good fight and digging in to help. My Sweet English Prince.

Sara at Touch and Go for spreading the word.

Therese and Sheri for all their efforts and phone work.

Jason Woliner for donating the Human Giant DVD for the grand prize.

Brian Stack for getting the Conan stuff for the grand prize.

AST Records for giving up merch to give out throughout the whole marathon - and not just for my show.

Gregory for the beautiful Ted Leo posters.

Jouster for spreading the word to AST.

Everybody at Pitchfork for pushing the show and the marathon.



If I am forgetting anyone, please let me know and I will correct this.

Thanks all! I will never forget it!

Now pay those pledges!

Tom.

Seeing "Rapist" under "The Daddy" is a little menacing...
Thank you for a killer show, Tom.  I'll donate more next year, just pretty tapped right now.

It makes me feel better, or at least more amused, to read it as "The Daddy-Rapist."

Thanks as always for the great shows, Tom.  Here's to another year.
Oh, good heavens. I didn’t realize. I send my condolences out to the rest of the O’Connor family.

I read it more as "The Daddy, Rapist."

2007 was an awesome year, and 2008 is shaping up to be even better. Keep up the awesome work, Tom!
It ain't ego, it's my love for you.

You don't thank me, I thank you.
