After 5 years, AFR comes “home” – 5/3/2012

Posted on May 3, 2012 by A's Fan Radio

On 5/3/2012, A’s Fan Radio made its 1st broadcast in over 5 years at the cafe & bar located on the corner of 5th Ave & E 12th St near Downtown Oakland.

Corner of 5th Ave & E 12th St, near Downtown Oakland, half hour after show wrap up:

The last time any post was made about A’s Fan Radio from this location was the summer of 2007, during the final year of the 1st running of the show. It was great after all this time to come back and do AFR where it all began at La Estrellita Cafe & Bar near Lake Merrit & Laney College in Oakland.

One new feature you will see about A’s Fan Radio this time around is that we will have the cast up on the stage. Plans are in the works for a show banner to hang behind the cast for the webcast videos of the show and other new features in the months to come to enhance the AFR expereance at La E.

We thank Jose and the rest of the crew past & present during the show’s running at the cafe & bar and are looking forward to again working with them having the show here on the final Thursday of each month through September.

The upcoing show dates for La Estrellita are: 5/31, 6/28, 7/26, 8/30 & 9/27. Show will broadcast live in front of live audiance & Ustream Channel from 8 pm – 10 pm PST. Playoff(s?!) dates TBA.

StAy sAfe and see you all during our next show on May 17th. Stand by as well for the May 24th show as Ballistic Bill will be live on the show for the 1st time since 2005.

Cpl RFA & Jose get wi-fi issues hammered out, Show #17 set to take place 5/3

Posted on April 27, 2012 by A's Fan Radio

After having issues with reconnecting to the wi-fi at La Estrellita before last night’s grand return to our old stomping grounds was set to go, AFR Producer Keith “Cpl RF Asshole” Salminen and La Estrellita owner Jose meet earlier today to figure the problem out. As they both now feel they know what caused the problem, which seems to have been people living above the bar going on the wi-fi right at 8 pm PST yesterday causing us to not regain a connection, Jose will have the wi-fi password protected for the upcoming May 5th show and all other broadcasts we do there in the future so we will only get into it for the show. Jose will also have a tech come in to make sure there aren’t any other problems.

Cpl RFA also spoke with former AFR producer Francis Brooks about how we got around this possible same problem from 2003-2007, which is to bring a 50 foot internet cord to plug into ether a phone jack or the machine that transmits the wi-fi itself.

We are again sorry we could not bring you the show last night, but be sure to join us next Thursday as we will do “Take 2” on our return to our “home”.
