TOM ON THE CHERRY BLOSSOM CLINIC WITH TERRE T SATURDAY MARCH 14th 3-6 PM EST!

[Tom Scharpling]

Hey everybody!

I'm gonna be on the legendary Cherry Blossom Clinic on Saturday March 14th from 3-6 PM EST, joining the awesome TERRE T as her co-host for her second and final marathon show!

WFMU is 100 percent listener sponsored, and we need your help to make our operating budget for another year, so she can keep playing the rock every Saturday!

If you pledge $75 or more DURING HER SHOW you automatically get her awesome premium, THE CHERRY JUBILEEEE ROCK KIT! It's a 2-fer package combining an EXTRA LONG CD of way outta print records from her personal collection of punk, 6Ts, glam, indie and power pop rarities AND a reprint of the classic Robert Piersanti designed CHERRY BLOSSOM CLINIC T-SHIRT!

So if you've been waiting to pledge, if you missed the Tuesday night Best Show festivities, if you're working on a larger pledge and need to close it out or if you're just a believer in awesome radio that is not beholden to corporate douchery or government sleaze, YOU NEED TO PLEDGE TOMORROW!

So TUNE IN and hear Terre T on the radio with her co-host Tom Scharpling SATURDAY MARCH 14th from 3-6 PM EST! And call 800-989-9368 or pledge online at www.wfmu.org DURING HER SHOW from 3-6 PM EST!

Thanks!

And spread the word on this! Repost, blogs, Tweet, Facebook, MySpace, Friendster - anywhere and everywhere! Thanks!

Thanks to everybody who pledged during Terre's show!

And anyone who STILL hasn't pledged should check me out on CHOKING ON CUFFLINKS, the awesome show hosted by Michael Goodstein! We are on from 9-midnight, and there are a ton of great prizes we will be giving away.

It's my last co-hosting shift of the marathon, so call in and say HI and pledge so that WFMU can stay on the air for another awesome year!

800-989-9368 and wfmu.org

Tom.

To paraphrase XTC: "Scharpling's working overtime."
Today was the first time I listened to The Cherry Blossom Clinic with DJ Terre T, and I pledged (third pledge total), and it was great. It was all great.

[Come on, Jason]

Talk about overtime, it's 10:30 pm and Tom is once again on the air!  Right now!

They hit the $950k mark at the end of that block. They seemed disappointedly satisfied.

Idiot that I am, I made another premium pledge this morning intended for Terre and Tom, only I just realized I did it during Fool's Paradise. Apparently at 33 years old, I still don't understand the whole east to west coast time differences thing. Good job, me.

My included message probably went over well on the wrong show too, oh man.

I tried guys

[Tom Scharpling]

THANK YOU to everybody who pledged today! We hit both of our goals on both shows. Terre T and Michael Goodstein are the cream of the WFMU crop!

Sunday night we celebrate at Maxwell's in Hoboken! Come on down and say hi! I do my song late in the night, but I'm gonna do everything I can to make it worth it.

Tom.

Congratulations to everyone at WFMU! I think now more than ever we need a station like this. And Tom remember not to blow out your vocal cords tonight.

Shameless bump.

So I finally listened to the Fool's Paradise I pledged to on Saturday by mistake. (I was at work and not near a computer at the time, which is partially why I screwed up the time zone stuff so bad.) Not only did they not read my FOT inspired message to the DJ, thankfully, but Terre pledged after me. AND then I won whatever the prize was on the table right after that too.

So I guess it all worked out in the end, and the money goes to the same place ultimately, so yay.

I'm still getting Terre's premium though, sorry Rex.
