“Aw man, [band] AND [artist] were on your show in [year]? That sounds amazing. Why wasn’t I there!”
If this sounds familiar to you, that’s because it’s a symptom of Mountain Stage fever, a music fanatic habit that comes about whenever we pull out the Mountain Stage archives and show off our 30+ year history of live performance radio.
This weekend, get ready to ooohhh and ahhhhh over a pair of 2009 shows featuring Regina Spektor, Yo La Tengo, Indigo Girls and more on 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 32 year history and shares their memories and songs with our late-night listeners.
Join us this Saturday September 5 and Sunday September 6 for Mountain Stage After Midnight for a great set of shows.
First, an episode from September 2009 featuring Indigo Girls, Chris Smither, Jill Hennessy, Alison Brown Band and Gary Jules.
Then an October 2009 episode recorded at the WVU Creative Arts Center in Morgantown with WVU Arts & Entertainment featuring Regina Spektor, Yo La Tengo, Sonny Landreth (who’s returning to the Mountain Stage this fall!), Will Hoge and Great Lake Swimmers.
Mountain Stage is only possible with support from listeners like you. Learn about your digital archives project and how you can be involved in preserving live performance radio history. Follow and tag us @mountainstage on Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Instagram. And if you want Larry and the Mountain Stage crew to bring the party to another state, contact your local public radio station and request the show be recorded in your neck of the woods.

In this episode of Us & Them, host Trey Kay revisits a 1960s moment when a band refused to perform unless a mixed-race couple was allowed to dance — and paid the price for taking that stand. It’s a story about courage, consequences and the uneasy intersection of music and race in America.

On the next episode of Us & Them, Trey Kay looks at the intersection of music and race in the 1960s. It’s about a band that took a stand against racism – and musicians who suffered the consequences.
