I don’t even follow professional or college sports (sans baseball) and I enjoy these two sports shows. And The Time Machine with our DJ Dylan Pollack is always super fun. He puts a lot of thought into his show so check it out!

Not a staff member? A number of t-shirts will be raffled off at Festapalooza! Woohoo!
Shakey Graves- Roll To Bones (live)
I have spent the entire weekend listening to nothing but Shakey Graves, he is an amazing musician and has a very unique sound. Check him out if you are a fan of Tallest Man on Earth, Brown Bird you will probably like this a lot!!
mewithoutYou - February, 1878
Paste just premiered this new song from post-hardcore group mewithoutYou. It’s a lot harder than songs from their awesome last album, but it’s still rad as hell! Check it out!
Titus Andronicus - Upon Viewing Oregon’s Landscape With The Flood of Detritus
Hey all! Your FESTAPALOOZA headliner’s released a new single a few weeks back, and it’s a killer. Judging from this song and their new ones they played live, Titus Andronicus is delving into some weird experimental punk trip. I couldn’t be more excited. Check it out, and then see them on APRIL 20th at FESTAPALOOZA.
FESTAPALOOZA: Quinnipiac University’s First Music Festival
featuring:
Titus Andronicus
Bomb the Music Industry
The Front Bottoms
The Guru
Great Caesar
The Midnighters
…and Hamden’s local food vendors!
The event is on April 20th in Quinnipiac’s Burt Kahn Court, starting at 5:30, show at 6:15. Raffles every hour. Tickets JUST FIVE BUX (free for Quinnipiac students)
It’s our second week back from spring break, and WQAQ couldn’t be more ready for the remainder of the spring semester! In addition to our upcoming spring concert on April 20 featuring Titus Andronicus, we’re excited to be a part of Quinnipiac’s 3rd annual Big Event.
The Big Event started in 1982 at Texas A&M University as a way for college students to give back to their surrounding communities. It became a Quinnipiac tradition in spring 2010. Students are divided into teams and sent to various locations, ranging from food banks to local schools to public parks and everything in-between, and complete one day of service.
Last year WQAQ had a team of 20 and we spent the day cleaning up Edgarton Park in New Haven. We gave back and had a ton of fun in the process! If you’re a student at QU and weren’t able to sign up this year, I highly recommend being part of a team next spring!
