An update from 4ZZZ legend and a Evil Zed organiser Sam Kretschman AKA DJ SLK.
We have the numbers and can tell you that together we made almost
😈 $13,000! 😈
for our community station 4ZZZ! BIG thank you for all coming along, raving or rocking hard!
It ain't no party without THE PEOPLE!! So a massive thanks to all the bands and DJs for playing for FREE! Thanks to Young Henrys for the support, the Greaser venue and their staff for getting behind the event, the taste makers who helped pick bands, the photographers, the people who did some promotion online or stuck up a poster, announcers who played the bands on the radio, staff at Zed for trusting me and helping it all come together and last but certainly not least - the volunteers who helped out at the event!
Things like this don’t ‘just happen’ it involves lots of careful planning and hard physical work to go into making something this fun. It’s a multi-genre party that shouldn't happen here BUT IT DOES! Stick the date in your calendar for next year and stay evil 😉
Thanks for celebrating Radio Against the Machine with us this Radiothon. You've made this year's subscriber campaign one of our most successful ever!
Your support means we're able to keep the people and passion that drove 4ZZZ on air. It's another year of giving local artists a platform, giving a voice to marginalised communities and championing the rich cultural fabric of this city.
We're now diving into the job of packing and posting all your subscriber packs and merch. There's a lot, over 1,500, so please be patient as our volunteers get everything to you.
If you were planning to pick up your pack from the station, that's ready for you now. You can pop in to reception between 10am to 4pm Tuesday to Friday or 10am to 2pm on Saturdays to collect it. If you originally said you wanted your pack posted out but have changed your mind and want to come in, please give us a call - 3252 1555 - or drop us an email - reception@4zzz.org.au - so we can let you know when we'll have it ready for you.
To get an update on shipping times or to check in on the progress of your order feel free to give us a call or email using those details. One of our volunteers will be able to update you.
Finally, to celebrate the success of this campaign we're going to keep the good times rolling for a little longer, with a few choice prizes still available until the end of August. Head to our Radiothon page for the full details.
Thanks for supporting 4ZZZ and Radio Against the Machine.
