The Curse! This Weekend.

This is our 2nd Summer pilot episode. Please join us either in person or on the web at www.cbs-fm.org


The Big Apple's newest addition to the late-night talk show sector, Hardy Dardy (Erin Markey-- Sex Workers Art Show, Guggenheim, Joe's Pub), hosts a monthly star-studded talk show live from his Bay City, MI backyard (in the living room of Dixon Place)! The Curse ISN'T just a live yak fest--it's also an audio webcast that streams live on Cupcake Broadcast Studios. (www.cbs-fm.org.) The show takes live callers from all over the world! If you're a fan of the Late Show, Pee Wee's Playhouse, Sigfried and Roy, and This Old House, look no further--The Curse has it all. Magic, Jokes, Stars, Talking Recliners, and Plenty of Tools! This Saturday, July 19, will feature performances and live interviews with "Mastermind of Bizarre Extravaganza" Darlinda Just Darlinda, Ching Chong Song--the band TimeOut says has "enough chutzpah to fill Carnegie Hall," "The Larry Flynt of Avant-Cabaret" Erin Markey, and Ryan Fitz Gibbon, MetroNY featured blogger and writer. If that isn't enough, come for the bratwurst, hot off the grill, and cupcakes straight from the oven.
