Main Street Madness Winner




From Carbondale Main Street:

The Main Street Madness competition has finally come to a close.  The last round of the competition was between two of Carbondale’s most popular restaurants, Mary Lou’s and Quatro’s.  A record number of votes came in this week leaving Mary Lou’s slightly behind our 1st Annual Main Street Madness winner Quatro’s Deep Pan Pizza!

Main Street Madness was a bracket style competition between eight of Carbondale’s most popular eateries. The community was encouraged to vote for their favorites each week for a chance to win gift certificates to participating restaurants.

On Monday April 2, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. Carbondale Main Street will be having an award ceremony for this years’ winner at Quatro’s (218 W. Freeman St.). Here we will be presenting them with a traveling trophy to recognize that their business is the favorite among Main Street Madness voters.
WDBX and Carbondale Main Street would like to thank each business that participated in this promotional event for downtown eateries in Carbondale.

IlliNOIZE Coming

Courtesy of DaveX:

For the uninitiated, noise music is sometimes thought to originate with John Cage's provocative work, 4'33", which is wholly formed by the incidental sounds pervading an otherwise "silent" listening space. Today, noise music ranges from sine waves at the edge of human hearing to full-on blasts of static and feedback. This Saturday, Southern Illinois's finest noise artists will introduce noise music to the region on a live broadcast at WDBX-FM, hosted by "It's Too Damn Early" DJ DaveX.

The 1st Annual Southern IlliNOISE Summit will be broadcast on WDBX 91.1 FM from 4-6:30 am Saturday, April 18th, with a pre-show warmup of Midwestern noise recordings starting at 3 am.

The line-up includes:

DaveX
Karthik Kakarala
Aaron Jones, of Maggotapplewonderland
Rick Leipold, Matthew Lee Lind; both of "Gorilla Heritage"
Cosmic Twilight Pimps
Andrew Crook
The Cloud Cuckoo Band
Chaos Kit
James McKain, of Glass Pyramid
...more performers TBA
