It’s time, once again, for Massive Music Weekend, WRCT‘s 60-hour marathon of 120 30 minute blocks of our favorite artists, which we do over Valentine’s Day weekend because we’re married to music. I’m doing five blocks this year, and it should be really good. Here are the slots corresponding to bands I already know I like (there are a bunch more of bands I am anxious to learn about), with ones I’m particularly excited about hearing in italics, and the ones I’m doing in bold. Listen from Friday, February 13th at noon until Sunday the 15th at 11:59 on 88.3fm in Pittsburgh or on our website worldwide!
