This week at PGU: The end of an era.

posted by Lambo at 8:00 pm.

This week on PGU, we’ve got a great Ticket Tuesday and a show you just can’t miss.

  • First off, tomorrow we’ve got 5 pairs of tickets to Blind Melon at Canopy Club, and they’re all for you! Listen in all day for your last chance to win tickets to the show, which starts at 7 at Canopy.

  • Also this Friday, tune in from midnight to 1 to hear an hour of radio to remember as Matt Senator spends his last shift at WPGU. The Flashback Cafe will carry on into the Fall under new management, but that DJ will have big shoes to fill.

WPGU out and about

posted by Matt at 3:39 pm.

The WPGU Promotions staff has been busy this week. You can catch us tonight on the south quad at 8:30 for a friendly game of capture the flag. Tomorrow we’ll be at the corner of Wright and Daniel fro 12-2 taking live requests and playing all your favorite WPGU tunes. Friday we’ll be over at the Capstone Quarter Condominiums doing a free car wash. So come tonight, or tomorrow, or Friday, or all three days if you simply can’t get enough of WPGU fun.

posted by Lambo at 1:21 pm.

This week(and every week, really), PGU is working hard to be all up in your grill! We will be out and about in a lot of fun ways, working to ensure that your Summer doesn’t suck and your life is made just a bit more awesome!

  • First off, we’re spending Tuesday and Thursday from noon to 2PM out in the world, taking your requests! Check us out at IUB on the corner of Wright and Daniels as we offer up WPGU “Quickies on the Quad!” Yes… we know we’re just off the quad, but the sentiment is still there, plus our rock and roll sound can be heard all the way at Foellinger, so it counts! Stop on by for free stuff and to get your requests on the air, courtesy Illini Apple Center.
  • On Thursday, we’re going to be driving around, giving away the cool stuff that we don’t want anymore in our first ever WPGU Mobile Garage Giveaway! From CD’s and Frisbees to PGU party beads and shot glasses, we’re doing a little spring cleaning in the middle of summer, and our trash can be your treasure! TUne in to PGU from 5-7PM to find out where we’ll be, then come on out for your chance to get some cool free stuff!
  • Finally, on Friday, WPGU is getting wet & wild as we wash cars at Capstone Quarters, near I-74 on Lincoln Ave in Urbana! Stop on by for a free wash on us!
