on both KFCF and KFSR, has invited these folks to
come on, talk up the show and share a little bit of live music.
Thanks go out to Bill and KFCF. All of us hope that all of
you will join us Sunday for an early evening of good music, good food
and the chance to help out an organization that's doing some good
stuff.

The music will run like this:
WeWalk&Drive---------------------5:30
Blake Jones & the Trike Shop-----6:00
Julia Dawn-----------------------7:00
The event is 10 bucks (sliding scale for those who can't make the 10--we want you there!)
See you Sunday!
Amy Goodman in the Tower
A reminder and shameless plug...
You can help put Amy Goodman in the top 15 of the NYT bestseller list by coming to see Amy and her crew Sunday at the Machinists Union Hall, 544 W. Olive Ave. (across from the DMV) from 11 a.m - 1:30 p.m. Tickets are still available at The Movies on Van Ness Ave., and by calling 233-2221, and whatever are still available at the end of business Friday will be sold at the door. See you there! Below is a message from Amy.

New Book by Amy and David Goodman an instant national bestseller!
Help push the book, Static, into the printed New York Times bestseller list. It's at #18 this week! If it hits #15, it will appear in the Times!
It has also hit the LA Times list, the Northern California Independent
Booksellers list, and others. It has also been the #1 book on the mass
media on amazon for weeks.
Just days after the publication of Static: Government Liars, Media
Cheerleaders and the People Who Fight Back, By Amy Goodman and her
brother, journalist David Goodman, the book reached #18 on the New York Times bestseller list. This is referred to as the "Extended List" - it is available online, but not in the printed Sunday paper's Book Review. Books need to hit #15 in order to be printed.
If you were considering buying a copy or two (or 3!?) of Static, please do so this week! Consider this a great way to get a jump on holiday shopping, or a great birthday gift, for a family member, friend, or a library.
Why is it important to be on the list? The life of a book and its
distribution far afield, to get it into the hands of people who may not know that there are alternatives, depends on getting onto the shelves of bookstores and libraries. Some stores give favorable placement to books on the list. Other smaller stores will only stock the NYT bestsellers.
Also, check out the latest Op-Ed piece by Amy and David, published this week online by Mother Jones Magazine:

Yeah, sounds good KFCF.
That would make an entire day of Democracy and Peace.
A whole 24 hours of democracy and peace...is that a
BIG dream or a Little dream? (laughs)
----hope folks can make it to both events, and
much thanks to KFCF who along with KFSR is very supportive
of local music and events.
