Before we go any further, we should probably get this out of the way; have you called your mom yet? I mean, it is May, and May starts with Mother's Day, so it seems only fitting to get things started off right by calling your mom or a mom-like figure in your life and thanking her for being so awesome. So get to it, make the call. It's alright, I'll wait...

...done? Good. Did you tell her I said hi? No? C'mon, it was my idea for you to call her. Well, never mind, let's get on with the business at hand. First of all, a big thank you to all of you for your support of this year's prom. Prom is one of our favorite events we do each year, and The Masquerade promises to be one of the best yet. This event really represents everything this ministry is passionate about; good music, biblical encouragement, and demonstrating that living for Christ can be a whole lot of fun. If you're one of those last-minute people, you better get your tickets soon, because we have limited space for the prom and tickets are going fast. Get your tickets and all the details about the 2010 Static Radio Masquerade Prom at m88events.org.

New Music Tuesday is now featured in the afternoon with Ty. We have some great giveaways coming up along with some exclusive interviews with new bands and with some of your favorites as well. Tune in every Tuesday afternoon with Ty for free stuff, the latest music, exclusive interviews and more during New Music Tuesday, now in the afternoons.

Starting May 10 there will be a new way for you to make your requests on Static Radio. Now you can text your request. Send your text to 41411 and in the text include the keyword, "Static Radiorequest", followed by a space and then the song title and the artist. Although we don't always get around to playing every request we get, they help us know what songs you're really digging. It's just one more way you can help influence the music we play on Static Radio, so text in those requests (standard texting fees apply).

Speaking of your feedback on the music being valuable, when you visit the music page at m88.org, you can share your thoughts on the music played here on Static Radio. Tell us if you like a song or if you don't like song. We don't want to play music you don't like, and we definitely want to play more of the music you do like. The only way we can do that however is if you tell us what you're thinking (we aren't mind readers after all, and we don't have ESP…although we're looking into that).

Well, that's all for this month. Thank you all for your prayers (the life blood of this ministry), your feedback (the only way we can learn to do things better for you), and for your support (one of the main reasons this ministry exists).
