KBGA 89.9 FM hosts its annual fundraiser, RadioThon, February 8th – 14th. During the pledge week, we are raising the bar from our goal of $10,000, to $13,000, a thousand dollars for each year that we’ve been around. The KBGA staff, as well as volunteers, will be in the office from 8 AM – 8 PM every day accepting calls from the KBGA listening community. The number to call is 243-KBGA. In return for donations, premium packages will include KBGA merchandise, as well as gift certificates, merchandise, and services from many local and regional businesses.

We will celebrate a successful week with our KBGA benefit concert, EndofThon, at the Badlander and Palace Lounge on Saturday, February 13th. We have 5 bands and 3 DJs for the show, as well as screen printing, drink specials, and giveaways. At our last event in September, we had over 900 people come out to support the station.

Upstairs in the Badlander, The Hood Internet come all the way from Chicago, giving Missoula what they want, even if they don’t know it yet. Marauding pop, rap and R&B landscapes like a laptop-armed alchemist, DJ STV SLV (Steve Reidell) drops the unlikeliest elements into the pot and make gold-from Dirty South rap to Canadian indie rock to “French Touch” electro, to pretty much everything else. Think Girl Talk with integrity and a prescription to Adderall. The Hood Internet has toured North America, sharing bills with Diplo, the Hold Steady, GZA, Matt & Kim, Blackalicious, RJD2, Kid Sister, and played at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Monolith Festival, SXSW, and CMJ. The Hood Internet racks up over 300 original mash-up tracks, four full-length mixtapes, remixes for bands like Blitzen Trapper, The Rosebuds and El Perro Del Mar, a 10-track collaboration with Bay Area rappers The Pack, and a 7-song EP melding raps from Aesop Rock and cohorts with the aural wizardry of Black Moth Super Rainbow’s Tobacco. Paste, HypeM, Pitchfork, Time Out Chicago, Stereogum, Chicago Reader, and New York Magazine have given them considerable attention.

Local favorites Black Velvet Elvis reunite for one show only (!), with the original lineup and a new drummer. They’re influenced by Nascar (the activity of hating it), taco-serving non-taco restaurants, sunglasses at night, lipstick, mustaches, robots made out of lettuce, and PBR. The bill is the rounded out by the soon-to-be legendary DJ Kris Moon, the most versatile and talented DJ in Missoula.

In the Palace, Seattle’s Visqueen return to Missoula. After garnering countless fans, reviews, and playing shows with everyone from Guided By Voices, to Cheap Trick, Visqueen appeared to be on the verge of conquering the world. All that changed when band leader Rachel Flotard’s father was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She has been busy the last few years, splitting her time caring for her father and working with Neko Case, lending her original voice to Neko's recent albums. Here, Ms. Case returns vocal favors on Visqueen’s new album, Message to Garcia, joining a spectacular cast of unusual collaborators from pedal steel wizard Jon Rauhouse, to The Fastbacks and The Long Winters. Rolling Stone, NPR, Spin, All Music Guide, MSNBC, and LA Weekly have taken notice.

To round out the Palace, local one-man-bands Shahs and Capricorn Vertical Slum open up the night. Shahs was once described by a blog as the antithesis of Animal Collective, or bedroom tropical disco, while Capricorn Vertical Slum describes himself as if disco-era Rolling Stones were jamming in the closet of R. Kelly's spaceship. Petracorp bring their experimental, rock-tinged trip-hop, and DJ Fleege closes out the night with a not-too-late night dance party, mixing progressive and tech-house dance music.

KBGA’s annual RadioThon happens February 8th – 14th. We’re attempting to raise $13,000. To celebrate, we’re hosting our annual EndofThon party at the Badlander and Palace Lounge on Saturday, February 13th. Chicago’s The Hood Internet, Seattle’s Visqueen, Black Velvet Elvis (reunite for one show only), Kris Moon, Shahs, Fleege, Capricorn Vertical Slum, and Petracorp are set to play. The doors open at 9 PM and the show starts at 10 PM. This is an 18+ event and only costs $5. 5 bands, 3 DJs, 1 Night: KBGA’s EndofThon. For more information, visit www.kbga.org.
