North West Tasmania needs you.

[The Thing]

Hello all my kilted brothers.

I need to call on your help. One of my local radio stations have decided in their wisdom to scrap the ONLY Celtic radio slot for the North West of Tasmania. In doing so they have deprived the people of this area chance to interact with their Celtic heritiage.
I have attached an email below explaining the situation.
If you wish to contact the station please do so and thank you so much for your support.

Hi, if you've not heard..Coast FM is trying to get rid of the Celtic Connection, reason...the great god money, they have sold our time spot to a sponsor (as of yet unnamed) to someone who does not want celtic music. This basically means that tomorrow night will bring as end to ten years of broadcasting, ten years of promoting celtic music and events in NW Tassie. If you feel strongly about this, I invite you to call the station and register your support for a return of the program to the original time slot. This is do or die, a time to vote, so if you want to take action and call the station - ask for for Mark Pannowitz, station manager on 03 64423666 or email music@coastfm.org thanks for your support, feel free to tell friends and get them to call.

Thanks everybody. The Thing


New update: I recieved an email from the station manager and they have decided to save the Celtic connection and extend it by another hour, but it shall be moved to a different slot.

Thank you all for your kind support, I'm so happy.
