WBWC Cleveland announces "U2004: The U2 Marathon"


WBWC 88.3 FM "The Sting", the radio voice of Baldwin-Wallace College, continues their long running Summer Marathon Series. This year?s marathon season will close out on Thursday September 2nd featuring 18 hours of nonstop music by Irish rockers U2.

Once More In The Name Of Love!

Longtime college DJs and U2 fans, Todd Richards and Mary Cipriani will once again be the co-hosts for this special broadcast day beginning at 7:00am on September 2nd, and running continuously through 1:00am September 3rd. Todd is an alumni of Baldwin-Wallace?s WBWC and Mary is an alumni of John Carroll University's WJCU 88.7FM. This is the 4th year in a row that Todd and Mary have teamed up to host the U2 marathon on WBWC. In those four years, Todd and Mary have produced U2 marathons during the arrival of the 2001 Elevation Tour in Cleveland, interviewed members of the band's production team, and broadcasted live from "In The Name Of Love: Two Decades Of U2", the 2003 featured exhibit at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame And Museum, kicking off the Hall's U2 Fan Celebration event.

Portions of the Marathon broadcast day on September 2nd will take place live from the Alan Freed Radio Studio on-site at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame starting at 10:00am. You can even watch Todd and Mary on the Rock Hall?s webcam at - http://www.rockhall.com/radiostudio
