Anyway, here is the latest from SaveNetRadio.org:

Thanks for the link....too bad Congressman Inslee can't do some other "acts" as he's going to the floor for the legislation. That seems to be the only "action" some of these money-grabbers understand.

I've been in touch with three of the bands that I will feature on the show... honest, hardworking musicians that deserve better than this. I echo vax's sentiments about the Moon being a big part of my life, but I worry about the musicians even more. It would be ironic if the station shut down the day I will feature these fine artists.

I haven't heard word one from Jim,, but from what I've been able to gather, he will make his usual rational and well-thought out decision. I can't see us just cutting everything off, but all I offer is speculation. I await also..now to post the show thread

Re: AM to operate after July 14?

Inslee is my US Rep, and this is one of the extremely rare times I'm proud to say my congress critter supports & promotes my beliefs (DeFazio in OR was pretty OK too).

I can not stress this strongly enough: GO TO SaveNetRadio AND FIND OUT HOW TO FAX OR CALL YOUR US REPRESENTATIVE ASAMFP!!!. Then get in touch with your Senator as well.

Even if you have previously contacted them, do so again to reinforce your sentiments, especially if previously it was by online form or email. Calls/faxes carry much more immediacy of the issue.

Then find out how to support SaveNetRadio or any one of the other equivalent organizations. Even if you haven't been able to handle the $50 AM patron donation, can you not afford $10/$25/etc to ever be able to listen to non-mainstream Internet radio again?

Re: AM to operate after July 14?

It's so odd isn't it? Because of something happening in the USA, loads of people around the world will, probably, lose something very dear to their lives. Yet there is very little they can do about it.

Don't these Jerk-offs realise that their misguided, money grabbing plan will affect loads of people outside the US? Maybe they do but I don't think they give a toss.

Let me stress here and now that if Aural Moon stops streaming on July 15th it will not just die!!!!!!!!

The site will remain as a forum for us to continue to meet and share our thoughts, hopes, fears and aspirations.

The Family that is Aural Moon will continue regardless of what these foolhardy bureaucrats do.

Let's wait to see what Jim wants to do. We're with you all the way.

OK??????
