Like the live broadcast the FAN has had a few weeks off. However just 
like The Stig <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stig> we're raring to 
go, so welcome to this weeks FAN; the Fresh Air Newsletter and all round 
guide and comforter to the next four weeks of music in Edinburgh 
<http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/my_club/leinster/7348483.stm>. 
Check out the Fresh Air recommends section for more details.

It seems Scotland in general has decided not to bother, but we at Fresh 
Air have decided to push on with Summertime 
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yKgAEkCKxY>. Therefore we're hosting 
the 50s and 60s night 'Twist and Shout' at Medina again this Thursday, 
but this time, with special guests. Just like Rambo 
<http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0462499/> there has now been four Twist and 
Shouts but it is the first time we've had a live music there too. So 
would you please put your hands together for the people who play musical 
instruments, The Tri-tones. Please also put you hands in your pockets, 
even with the band the night is still only £3 entry, rad! For glorious 
surfer tunes check out their myspace <http://www.myspace.com/tritonesband>.

The new schedule is now in place and ready to launch on April 19th. It's 
a dainty little four week broadcast this session, however shows have 
been extended to 90 minutes each on a weekday and a full two hours at 
the weekend. Small but filing it's a Snack-A-Jack 
<http://www.snackajacks.co.uk/> of a broadcast, its good for you, enjoy 
it. The next broadcast will be covering the Fringe, a very busy and 
exciting time with loads of opportunitites to get involved and loads of 
great content being made. Last year we got interviews with many headline 
acts, as well as Les Dennis <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Dennis> 
and reviewed tonnes of shows. Expect more information next week, in the 
mean time, browse <http://www.freshair.org.uk/downloads/>.

As usual there are all the normal bits in this week's /FAN/, with this 
week's free track coming courtesy of Atlantic. However as the live 
schedule has not yet begun this weeks features and show picks recommend 
you the best audio content downloadable from our website 
<http://www.freshair.org.uk>. If you yourself are interested in 
interviewing bands or writing and recording your own scripted work now 
is a great time to get in touch with Fresh Air. As of this evening a new 
position is being made for Head of Speech and Creative and space made in 
next years schedule for such ceative content. Keep watching the website 
for more details or alternatively come to the meetings at 7.30 at 
Frankensteins every Tuesday.

The elections for next year's committee will be held at the general 
meeting this evening. If you're a member make sure you come along, 
membership cards in anxious and excited hands and vote. If you aren't a 
member then feel free to come along and hear what ideas we have for 
moving the station forward next year.

See you soon, /The FAN/

Forums: <http://www.freshair.org.uk/forums/> Check out the forums for 
all sorts of music and Edinburgh chat. Amongst others at the minute 
there is a thread on under-exposed artists, well worth a look.
