Pussy Riots’ Revolution Jam Called Riot Days

Pussy Riot performed from the stage at the A+R Bar Sunday after making an announcement
‘Pussy Riots isn’t a punk band. Pussy Riot is a protest performance.’

This didn’t deter a woman wearing a Bikini Kill shirt standing next to me from proclaiming “Pussy Riot is the most Punk Rock thing I’ve ever watched.’

Pussy Riot were performing Riot Days a musical piece which is a book, and movie written by Pussy Riot’s Maria Alyokhina about her stint in Russian prisons for opposing Vladimir Putin.

In 2012, Pussy Riot performed their song, “Punk Prayer” in an Orthodox Russian Church.
“Punk Prayer” isn’t sacrilegious with a King Diamond intent.
“Punk Prayer” invites Catholic women into opposition of Vladimir Putin.

Pussy Riot’s singer was sent into Siberia after approaching Judy Chicago’s conversation about female divinity while opposing Putin.

At first, you might question why would Putin respond if some band didn’t like him?
250 people in Columbus, Ohio were at Sunday’s show.
I saw a woman wearing a La Tigre shirt.
Even with a Diplo remix. I would assume Putin wouldn’t worry about the Riot Grrl movement finding a dislike for Putin.

Prior to Riot Days’ performance, Riot Day’s director took the stage.

Riot Days’ director said Putin’s disdain for Pussy Riot started with Pussy Riot spray painting a penis on a bridge which was outside of the KGB in Russia.
I realized why Pussy Riot irritated Putin.

Russia’s Orthodox Church invited Pussy Riot for a performance from women who insulted Putin with vandalism.

We are back on the air on 98.3

Thanks to everyone who donated to our GoFundMe, we are now back on the air on both 98.3 and 92.7FM.

We are now broadcasting on 98.3FM from a tower located near 71 and Hudson St with a directional antenna pointing west. So you should be able to hear us best on the North Side and especially the campus area.

Shout out to the Ohio Link Network who helped us with the antenna installation.

WCRS temporarily going off the air on 98.3

On the weekend of March 10th 98.3 FM will be temporarily going off the air as we work on moving our translator to a new location. We could be off the air for a few months but will stay broadcasting on 92.7 & streaming here at wcrsfm.org.

Please donate if you haven't already to our gofundme to help us cover the engineering and equipment costs associated with the move. Much appreciation to all of those of you who have donated already. As of 2/8/23 we have raised 2.7K out of the 10K we aim to raise.

Help WCRS Move Our Tower & Keep 98.3 On Air!

WCRS-LP FM -- Columbus's community-powered radio station! -- needs to move our 98.3 transmitter tower in order to keep our 98.3 signal on the air ... so we can keep providing people-powered radio to communities in downtown, West, South, & parts of East Columbus!
