Mornings with George Knight

WERS is having a one-day fundraiser... and this thank you gift is hot off the presses....the new GK Morning Show mug! It's a gift for a sustaining membership of $10 a month! You'll feel good knowing you're keeping the music on the air AND you'll get a brand new mug! Plus if you donate today, you could end up with tickets to Lana Del Rey at Fenway Park. Get yours at WERS.org/give

Keep this number nearby: 617-482-8890. When I play Foo Fighters during the morning show it's time to call in to win 3-Day passes to Boston Calling!

I just got word that I’ve got tickets to give away tomorrow morning to Boston Calling! The lineup is absolutely amazing, and it includes the return of Foo Fighters. They’re THREE DAY passes, and between 6:30 and 7 tomorrow morning, I’ll give details on how you can make them yours. I hope you’re as excited as I am. :)

SO great to have Nicholette back on the show! Makes me very happy.

Coming up on June 17th (6/17) we’re celebrating Boston’s musical 617 area code with nothing but local music all day long. And then that night at Brighton Music Hall, we’re putting on an ‘ERS 617 Day Concert with three REALLY talented local bands, Coral Moons, The Q-Tip Bandits, and Mint Green. If you’d like to go, e-mail your name and phone number to [email protected]. We’ll keep it open for 45 minutes, and then randomly pick winners. ¡Viva Boston!
