Receive Twitter reminders for each broadcast

Posted June 30, 2012 by Floydian Slip

“Floydian Slip” has been tweeting from the dark side of the moon for some time now. It’s all part of our strategy to build an online community of Floyd fans going back to the early-’90s when we were @AOL and posting songlists to Usenet. (Forget Vera Lynn. Does anybody here remember FloydShow@aol.com?)

Recently we’ve started tweeting notifications of each “Floydian Slip” broadcast the moment each show starts to air.

As our network’s grown to 34 stations airing the show 44 times every week, your options for when and how to listen have grown, too.

Follow us on Twitter @floydianslip to receive broadcast notices, as well as all the latest Floyd news.

Keep talking …
