"480 Minutes" - 11.11.11 - Corduroy Day!

Happy 11.11.11, which some peple think is the most important day in history!  I'm surrounded by a picket fence while wearing corduroys to match the striped nature of today's 111111 date, are you?

We even made a playlist for the event, which you can listen to via

MOG

or

Rdio

.

Welcome to BAGeL Radio's flagship program,

480 Minutes

aka the Friday live marathon broadcast.  The show is on live and in-person every Friday from 9 a.m. from 5 p.m. Pacific Time, hosted by multiple-time winner of the CMJ Specialty Music Director of the year, Ted Leibowitz.  

480 Minutes

is a weekly hosted internet radio show featuring the best new indie rock, sounding perhaps what Alt Rock radio would sound like had that format not been hijacked in the 90s by weak grunge-lite and Hot Topic punk rock.

Today we have

tickets

to give away for

Army/Navy

with 

Grand Archives

and

New Diplomat

at

The Rickshaw Stop

next Tuesday, 11/15, so keep your ears peeled and get in touch when you hear an 

Army/Navy

 song for a chance to win a pair of

tickets

to the show.
