News from the Freeform Front

Jeff Buckley Doc at Monty Hall On Saturday, July 26th at 7pm, WFMU Movie Night at Monty Hall presents It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley, a documentary about the one-of-a-kind vocalist and songwriter Jeff Buckley, who died unexpectedly in 1997 after only one album. The film gathers together archival footage and interviews with the people who knew him best. Following the screening, director Amy Berg will be interviewed by WFMU's Irwin Chusid, who knew Buckley in the early 1990s. Irene Trudel, who engineered Buckley's appearances at WFMU, will also participate in the discussion. Tickets are $15 at the door or purchase in advance here.

WFMU Mobile Apps Still Work Our recent website problems are now resolved, but that is not to say that everything is as it was before our outages from July 3-7. Our radio program archive player works again but it is a new player. And our website has been restored to the way it was upon its retirement dinner ten years ago. It will evolve from this point forward. Our three free mobile apps also work well, except for station news. The "WFMU Radio" iphone app (here), the iphone "WFMU Archive Bunker App" (here), and the Android Woof-Moo app (here), are all chugging along audio-wise at 100%. News on the apps will be fixed soon. Thanks for bearing with us through this latest round of the WFMU Technology Curse!
