Light a fire of sensuality into your internal organs and unDISCHARGE yourself. This, the “Empire Strikes Back” to DISCHARGE’s “A New Hope,” is not a concert in the traditional sense. This is an audiovisual exhibition of what can only be called performance art because it will synthesize music, images, and bodies into a psychedelic experience appropriate for those willing to explore the inner workings of collegiate humanity.
Indeed, this event will not follow the most traditional concert format but will instead function as a collaboration between your dancing body and the following artists:

Boy Scouts Visit WRBC
March 9th, 2009 • Uncategorized
In an effort to learn communication skills, a troup of Boy Scouts from Lisbon came to visit WRBC.The WRBC board led the group of 15 or so 10 year olds around the station and explained how WRBC works.
\
Alex Hernandez '09, the tech director, covered topics such as FM vs Am frequency and the complex inter workings of the transmitter and radio antenna. Jamie Donahue '10, the music director, explained how record companies send pre-released album copies to aid the distribution efforts of "up and coming" artists.
\
The Boy Scouts seemed to enjoy their visit and even got to voice the WRBC FCC call letters live on the air. Bates is always trying to engage with the Lewiston-Auburn community and WRBC is great tool to make that vision possible.

TRIVIA NIGHT XXX

Trivia Night is an annual event hosted by your college radio station, WRBC (#20 College Radio in North America). The event was started way back in 1979, when Bates had only one activity, Trivia. Trivia is a Team sport, consisting of teams of sizes ranging from about 5 to as many as you want. 8 is a pretty good number. Hopefully you have at least seven friends, if not, talk to that popular kid down the hall. The aim of Trivia Night is to win, but the question you may be asking yourself now is, how do I win. You win by having the most points. Points are won three different ways: 1) Trivia: Throughout the Evening, songs generally of an obscure nature will be played on 91.5 FM. These songs will be accompanied by a trivia question. You have to call the station and tell us: THE TITLE OF THE SONG, THE ARTIST PERFORMING THE SONG, and THE ANSWER TO THE TRIVIA QUESTION. Each item is worth 1 point, so 3 points are up for grabs on each song. You have to call in before the song ends. There are no bonuses for being the first caller.
