It’s National Pizza Party Day this weekend (seriously), so why not grab a pie, a pal and a Pug (acoustic rocker Joe Pug, to be exact) for Mountain Stage After Midnight.
Broadcast from 1am-5am Saturday and Sunday mornings here on West Virginia Public Broadcasting, Mountain Stage After Midnight takes the best episodes from the show’s 31 year history and shares their memories and songs with our late-night listeners.
Pair your pizza with some archived tunes Saturday May 15 and Sunday May 16 on Mountain Stage After Midnight.
Hear an April 2013 show recorded on the campus of West Virginia University, featuring Billy Bragg, The Flatlanders, Joe Pug (isn’t his new record dreamy?), Amy Speace and Suzzy & Lucy Wainwright Roche.
We also have a February 2009 show that includes Dierks Bentley, Jessica Lea Mayfield (have you heard her recent collab with Seth Avett?), Regan Boggs, Grayson Capps and Andy Driedman & the Other Failures.
Still hungry for more Mountain Stage? If you’re in the Philly area, keep an eye out for Larry and the Mountain Stage crew at WXPN’s Non-Commvention. If you’re not in the Philly area, you can still keep an ear out for Mountain Stage sets on our 24/7 Mountain Stage stream (made possible by your support!). Connect with the show and check out our show shenanigans on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. Join our monthly email newsletter for up-to-the-minute show announcements and ticket deals. And if Mountain Stage isn’t available in your neck of the woods, contact your public radio station and let them know that you’re hanker’n for Mountain Stage and great live performances.

That applies to kinds of expression that seem to have nothing to do with machines, like crochet. Folkways Reporter Wendy Welch brings us this story of how crocheters found AI invading their communal spaces and what they plan to do about it.
