How Much to Play My Humps?

Don't forget to check out WFMU on Friday at 8:00 for one of the coolest traditions in fundraising: Yo La Tengo's annual visit to the studio to take requests in exchange for donations to benefit the station. Here's the scoop direct from the news department at yolatengo.com:

That's right folks, it's that time of year again. Sorry for the short notice, but we just and I mean just got back from far far away, from the land where your Automatic Replies were going to cripple our in-box. So yes, it's short notice. Friday, March 16, 8 pm in your eastern daylight time, Georgia, James and I, along with our trusty sidekick Bruce Bennett (airlines willing), will take to the airwaves of WFMU and the cyberwaves of wfmu.org to help that most fantastic of radio stations raise money.

For three hours, we will join Pseu Braun and her co-host Gaylord Fields. Anybody who pledges enough money to the station during those three hours gets to make a request, and we will try to play it. If you've heard it before, you know that there's no spectacle in the world of entertainment quite like it. Don't miss it.
All the details you need are at wfmu.org
