And we will be part of the lineup!

WBCQ's new Radio Angela service on 4790 kHz begins its regular schedule of programs on Tuesday, March 1 world date at 0300 UTC (Monday, February 28 at 10pm EST US time and date). We will be posting our schedule here over the weekend. Two special events lead up to that:
1. On Sunday 0200-0400 UTC (Saturday 9pm-11pm EST US), we will air a sneak preview of WBCQ Concert Hall, our new 2-hour weekly opera and symphony program
2. On Monday 0300-0500 UTC (Sunday 10pm-Midnight EST US), we will air A Taste of Radio Angela, which will include clips from all of the shows in our first wave of new programs. Most of these were deliberately held back from our test cycle, and you will find that the lineup has something for nearly everyone musically speaking with some radio drama to boot.
We will be offering airtime for sale outside this special two hour per night program block. Come join us in this exciting effort to build a new cultural and entertainment institution on shortwave!

After 19 wonderful years of marriage that ended too soon, I’ve decided to step out into Dusty’s spotlight to thank all of his fans, colleagues and friends for the overwhelming outpouring of love for The Dust. It makes me hopeful he will not be forgotten.

He was the kindest, most gentle and caring man a woman could ever Hope to find in a lifetime. Many don’t believe in fairy tale marriages but Dusty and I truly lived one! We were inseparable.

He wasn’t supposed to leave me or all of you. That wasn’t the plan he and I had. The plan was for another round of physical therapy, with a different approach, to help his chronic bursitis. The plan was he would return to the second leg of the tour in September.

Early Wednesday morning my world and yours would lose a great musician and I would lose my greatest love. He woke me up and we talked and as he was sweetly chatting with me he suddenly stopped and he was gone in an instant. So, while I feel numb and lost and alone and in a million pieces, I know he will always be with me in my heart and soul and I will join him when the Lord calls me home to be with them. It is my hope you will always keep him in your hearts. He loved his fans and always remembered that without fans music is not heard. So, know he truly appreciated each and every one of you.

Dusty was an avid tv and movie buff…always quoting lines and so I share an embellished quote from “This Is Us” as my last love letter I send with him to his final resting place.

My Sweet Dusty,

The single most extraordinary thing I have ever done in my life is fall in love with you. The single most extraordinary gift I have ever received in my life was for you to ask me to marry you. I have never been seen so completely, loved so passionately and protected so fiercely.

I will be with you again.
Love you to infinity and back.

Your wife,
Chuck


I will lay my husband to rest tomorrow. I would ask that you look to the heavens at noon and wish Dusty Godspeed.

With great love, respect and appreciation to Dusty’s fans, colleagues and friends,

Mrs. The Dust

I miss you guys so, SO MUCH!!! Let’s pleeeease get back to it soon!!

In honor of Alice’s birthday, drop your favorite Alice Cooper story here in the comments! It can be meeting him, seeing a show, hearing his music for the first time, or whatever comes to mind. I’ll send him a link to this post tomorrow so he can read all your stories!!

(I’ve done this the last couple years and it’s always really fun. So don’t be shy!)
