WHAT'S GOING ON (at the end of September)

Listening time increased another 10% last week!  That's great but, it will have to increase another 40% this week, or Radionomy will eliminate KJRW from its web site.  So this is it.  This could very well be the last week of KJRW.

No score and seven years ago, KJRW began as an idea - a radio station that played songs that you don't hear on most radio stations.  We wanted it to be dynamic, unpredictable, and fun.  So seven years ago, we began building a library of hundreds of songs from the Punk era, and the music that evolved from it - New Wave, Alternative, and Grunge.  Don found a web site that would host our station for a small fee.  And in December of 2010, KJRW was launched online with the Presidents of the U.S.A.'s cover of Kick Out the Jams.

KJRW was our Field of Dreams.  We built it and thought they would come to listen.  A lot of you did.  KJRW has been heard in almost every continent on the globe.  Thank you for listening in the U.S., Germany, Canada, France, Spain, Poland, Netherlands, U.K., Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Ireland, Austria, U.A.E., Australia, China, Norway, Hungary, Israel, Ecuador, Peru, Belgium, Sweden, Hong Kong, Guatemala, Mexico, Czech Republic, Thailand, Portugal, French Polynesia, Kazakhstan, Costa Rica, Bulgaria, Estonia, Slovenia, Belarus, and Latvia.  We thank you all in the U.S. for spending time with KJRW:  Washington, Wisconsin, Washington D.C., Illinois, Virginia, Ohio, Alabama, New York, New Mexico, Michigan, Minnesota, Connecticut, California, Massachusetts, Florida, Tennessee, Indiana, North Dakota, Idaho, Texas, Maine, Kentucky, Rhode Island, North Carolina, Arizona, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Colorado, and Missouri.

We also thank all the voices of KJRW:  Matt, Anne, Richard, Allyssa, Madison, Travis, and Anna.  Thanks to the indie bands and fans for sending us songs.  Thanks to Angie, Barry, Mike, Kelly, Luis, Rikki, Selene, and Elizabeth for your music and station i.d.'s.

Until we meet again,
The Spinster 🖤
