Production Update

Hey everybody, this is Josh of the Frequency Production staff, here with a blog update for you all. We have some new Get Tipsy's in the works for you: tips on how to stay warm in Chicago. Priceless information if you ask me. Also, keep an eye out for the second episode of The Live Project which will be making it's way into regular programing soon. The musical Guest is Janelle Ja and she puts on a great show. Finally, the elections are upon us and I don't know about you, but I got my tickets for the Obama rally on Tuesday night. Something like 1 million tickets were given away within two days and the waiting list for tickets now is over 700,000. that doesn't mean you shouldn't show up. And if you can't, well keep an eye out for a piece that I and a few others of the Production staff plan on putting together about the rally. That's all I've got for now. Till next time, just keep visualizing yourself!
