1) The world lost an incomparable performer this week as Fats Domino passed away at the age of 89. Throughout his career, Domino made twenty gold records, including 'Walking to New Orleans,' 'Blueberry Hill,' 'I’m in Love Again,' 'Blue Monday,' 'Ain’t That A Shame,' and 'I'm Walkin'.' He made the Billboard charts over 100 times, and sold over 65 million records worldwide. He will be greatly missed by the New Orleans community.

2) Big shoutout to all of our new and renewing members from the last 11 days! Y'all, along with all of our volunters, musicians, and food donors, made WWOZ's 2017 Don't Stop The Music Fall Membership Drive a success. Thank you! If you missed a performance or want to see it again, you can find it at our Recent Video Streams. 

3) Happy Halloween! The big day is Tuesday, October 31 but there are plenty of spooky (and not so spooky) events going on this weekend.
