WFMU will present a special 30th anniversary broadcast of Bill Kelly's Teenage Wasteland at Maxwell's in Hoboken. Only r-r-real rock & roll is going be played. Special guests will include the Subway Surfers and the Doughboys performing live. In the spirit of WFMU's reknown big-tent musical philosophy, hippies and neocons will both be welcomed.

We keep saying this but, THIS is going to be the biggest show in The Subway Surfers career. Don't miss it! We go on at 5:15 - SHARP! Not "rock & roll time" where we say 10 and go on at 11. Seriously - 5:15. If you are driving, plan on getting there at 4pm. Parking in Hoboken is a BITCH.
