BTN comes to a close...for now

Hey everyone.

BTN weekdays from 9AM-Noon will be on hiatus until 2008. Dan could not pass up another opportunity and wishes he could balance both the show and his new venture. That said, you can always send a message to Dan at: chevradionoise@gmail.com.

Dan thanks everyone for listening and hopes to return with a bigger, better and stronger CHEV Radio in the weeks to come.

SHOWS, SHOWS, SHOWS!

Hello,

CHEV Radio is proud to announce the premiere of "The Yoko Sanchez Radio Show" coming this Sunday at 6PM. Yoko will be moving her time slot to Saturday from 6-8PM in her third episode but on October 14th and 21st she will be on www.chevradioam.com live at 6PM.

Also, "BTN" has been on hiatus for a couple weeks but will be back live at 9AM on October 16th. Lots of things to talk about including the 2007-08 NHL season and the 2007 Baseball Playoffs. Not to mention some CFL and NFL as well as pre-season NBA predictions coming very soon.

Dylan Fuhr will be starting his show, "Epic Radio" the same night Yoko Sanchez begins broadcasting every Saturday. The two will broadcast back-to-back, but the time of his show will be announced shortly. He'll be bringing you some of the best Indie and Retro music around.

But don't forget to check out tonight's live show, "My Living Room" with Cheryl Hoar. That begins at 7PM. And tomorrow, "The Gonzo Report" will be back on a 12 noon followed by "The Complainers" at 1PM. Then "Suburban Bass" will tear up the turntables from 9-11PM.

Not good to be John Tory right now. Thought we'd mention that.

Cheers!
