There's lots of stuff on The Zone @ 91-3. Music, information, rock stars, contests . . . The one thing which could be missing is you.
Every Friday night at 7:00 pm, The Zone gives you My Turn, an hour-long radio show presented by a guest DJ. We'll turn the controls over to rock stars, local personalities and Zoners just like you. They'll get to pick the music, learn how to push the buttons and talk on the radio!
Want to have your turn? Apply now!
It's all brought to you by the Victoria School of Business and Technology - the experience is your education. Pick up a My Turn application there (301-771 Vernon Ave)!
This week, join Brandon Williams from Wild Play Element Parksfor My Turn! She has some great stories of her outdoor adventures, some great tunes to set them to, and you can hear it all this Friday, February 5 at 7:00 pm, only on The Zone!
Your fix for the newest music is the Modern Rock Inbox - three brand new songs, three times every weekday, hosted by Zone Music Director Dave Sawchuk.
It airs on The Zone at 2:40 pm, 8:40 pm and for the bleary-eyed at 3:40 am.
It's all brought to you by SUBWAY® restaurants – Think Fresh. Eat Fresh.

If it seems a fortnight's passed since you've 'eard a smashing bit of jolly old England, don't get your knickers in a knot! Kick off those manky old trainers and nip on over to your wireless for The Zone's Tea Time.
Sit a spell each weekday at 3:00 pm to hear a different song from the great UK whilst enjoying your tea and a slice. Only the smashing stuff. Nothin' dodgy in the least.
In Canadian, every day at 3:00 pm, listen for a wicked rock song from a Brit rocker, covering everything from The Clash to the Sex Pistols to Muse or The Libertines.
The lot of it's brought to you by Café Mulatta - contemporary cuisine with global influences.
Weekday afternoons at 5:00 pm, Jeremy Baker starts your drive home with four songs that have made it to number one on the charts.
True, this could be a number one from a Danish radio station in 1992, but we'll mostly keep it to the big'uns.
Number Ones is brought to you by the fine folks at Sauce Restaurant and Lounge, Spend the night at Sauce...see us for seafood summer.
Weekday afternoons, phone your modern rock requests in to Jeremy Baker on The Zone Phone. At 6:00 pm, we'll play your picks.
That's why we call it, um, Your Picks . . . @ 6.
You can also e-mail him: jeremy at The Zone dot fm.
It's all brought to you by Hothouse Pizza. Thinking pizza? Think Hothouse. Think inside the box.
Each week, The Zone's Jeremy Baker shows off the latest in local talent with his podcast, Capital Rock City.

Weekdays at 1:40 am, 5:50 am, 10:50 am, 6:40 pm, and 10:50 pm, listen for The Ongoing History of New Music, researched, written and produced by Alan Cross.
The show has spun off four books and more than a dozen CD compilations.

The Ongoing History of New Music is brought to you by Evolution, downtown on Discovery.
When was the last time you actually listened to an entire CD, front to back?
Monday and Thursday nights at midnight (12:01 am), join us for Modern Rock: Front to Back to hear the best modern rock albums of all time in their entirety.
We'll also count down Ten Things You May Not Have Known About The Album Or Artist. Hear the albums that form the basis of today's modern rock universe.
In the ocean of music, The Zone lives happily on Modern Rock Island, with respect for all the other radio stations on all the other islands.
But what about the uncharted islands? The ones only the bravest dare to tread?
To explore those islands would take a pirate . . .
The Zone’s Late Nite Pirate Pick! Join Pol Plastino as he mines the deepest playlists for musical gems you won’t hear anywhere else.
Here's how things shook down the week of February 6, 2010:
Each week, Jeremy Baker counts down the top twenty songs on The Zone, Saturdays from 8:00-10:00 am and 4:00-6:00 pm, and Sundays from 10:00 pm-midnight.
And it's all brought to you by Sitka Surf and Skate, 538 Yates Street.
