How To Support Us

The Applause Show has always been "Listener Supported"

Regional Broadcasting Services, the owners of WVRM Radio, are huge
fans of a cappella and barbershop music. We are thankful they
have allowed us the prestigious Thursday night
6:30-11:00 pm broadcast time slot.

Unfortunately the air time is not free. The cost of operating
The "APPLAUSE" Show is $9000 annually
($175.00 a week / $40.00 an hr).  
This show would not be possible without the listener support.

We invite your support.

We have established a level of "SUBSCRIBER" of only $9.95 per month
($29.85 per quarter / $119.80 annually).
Subscribers are the backbone of the Applause Show.

Each "subscriber" who pays the year's total all at once,
or pays their 2nd quarterly installment, will have their choice
of any CD in the Mainely A Cappella Catalog as our "thank you gift".

If you are unable to afford a full subscription, ANY donation
will be greatly appreciated. We will send you a
"premium" CD (our choice) from the library of
donated CD's for any donation of $50.00 or more.

Perhaps your chapter could underwrite one week of broadcasting
time with a gift of $175.00. If you choose this type of support,
we will consult with you to determine if you want a particular
kind of show for that week's broadcast.
 (Example: One listener funded one week's broadcasting to
feature the life and musical loves of a well known barbershopper
who recently passed away).


Perhaps your quartet or chorus (who's CD we play)
would like to underwrite a week's broadcasting at a donation of $175.00.
We have several people who have chosen that level support.

Historic
The Applause Show originates from a well known, real, live,
recording studio (Stardust Recording Studio),
We have been able to bring live groups in and provide
them with the atmosphere of a recording studio,
not a cramped broadcast booth. We are also proud
to be able to offer 4 1/2 hours of barbershop
and a cappella music, the longest single time slot
of this genre in the world.  And we do it live each week.

Future Plans
In the future we hope to offer "archives" of past shows and to
broadcast "simulcasts" and "remotes" of concerts and shows.
This opportunity is unprecedented in the a cappella world.

We Need You
The bare fact is that we need your support.
Without it we will go off the air.

Please email us and tell us that you will support the show.

I am so proud of the work we have done. I am proud of the
quality of the broadcasts and the team behind them,
And I dream of the day when everyone who wants to
do so, can turn on their radio, their cable TV,
or their computer and hear the best of
barbershop and a cappella music

For the "APPLAUSE" Team,
God Bless you for considering
your support of the show.

Rich Taylor,
Host of The "APPLAUSE" Show

A Little Support

Applause Show host Rich Taylor speaks from the heart.

The love he puts into his show is clearly heard.

There are few barbershoppers more deserving of your support.
The weekly show he does is more work than almost
ANY other barbershoppers gives to promote our artform.
This is PR on a WORLD-WIDE scale.

Please consider supporting The Applause Show with a subscription.

Check them out, i think you'll like what you hear and agree with me,
they deserve our support.
