Enemies of the Accordion!
Do not despair. We realize that our preferred instrument is taking the universe by storm, and you might find that fact disturbing. Why, even Natalie Merchant uses one on her latest album (ie, CD).
But if you just don't like the sound, if you're genetically predisposed to chilblains, delirium tremens, migraines, and the heebie-jeebies, when you hear that sweet inhalation and exhalation of musical breath, there's still an accordion for you:
There's an accordion for every occasion!
Find out tonight how to put one to work for you on In Heaven There Is No Beer, the only accordion show that expands your musical, cultural, literary, historical, ethical, religious, spiritual and culinary horizons.
In Heaven There Is No Beer is heard exclusively on WIOX, community radio 91.3 FM, Roxbury, NY. We come to you every Thursday evening at 8:00 PM and the show streams live at wioxradio.org. Our broadcasts are also available on the iPhone. Just go to the Apple App Store and search WIOX. And on Margaretville Cable Channel 20.
For more information, pictures and shows form the vaults, try our web site: http://www.nobeer.org/ and note well, the website now has over 100 shows full of glorious accordion music for your listening pleasure.
Your host,
Joe Markulin
And don't worry, we would not even dream of playing Natalie Merchant.
