| Print | |
|
 KPFT and McGonigel's Mucky Duck are back together again for this 42nd birthday bash under the big top, Sunday March 11 from 12 pm til 7 pm at 2425 Norfolk in Houston (map). The line-up this year includes Hayes Carll, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Marley's Ghost, Lisa Morales, Patrice Pike, Sara Hickman, Sideshow Tramps and Sons of Fathers. There'll be a 50-50 raffle and silent auction and even more surprises in the works.
Advance tickets are $25 and can be purchased at this link. See you there!
The Librotraficante Caravan, organized by KPFT's own Nuestra Palabra programmers (airing Tuesday nights from 7:30-8:30 pm), are organizing to smuggle banned books back into Arizona and has established a network of Underground Libraries in Houston, San Antonio, Albuquerque and Tucson. The caravan will be leaving on Monday March 12, and you can contribute to the cause of free speech by donating a banned book to the caravan at KPFT's 42nd birthday party. You'll also be entered into a drawing for an Insignia Portable HD Radio or an Eton Handcrank Radio if you donate a banned book to the cause. For a list of banned books visit this link and for more about the Librotraficante Caravan visit here.
