SAVE WDET-FM - Magic Stick Thursday Dec 27th



Due to recent programming changes at WDET fm, the program manager has taken out what is a great part of Detroit's music culture, that is daytime music.
WDET sponsored Concert of Colors, The Detroit Art Festival, many concerts and other events. These festivals may hang in the balance.

It's time to rally. Email, phonecalls and ultimately your pocketbook will get the message through. Direct your thoughts to Michael Coleman, Program Manager (mcoleman@wdetfm.org or 313-577-4146).

Detroiters are at constant blows defending the place of cultural institutions in the city. Let's not let this one be another casualty.

Help bring the music back to WDET.
