Each year since 2006 we've not booked bands to play on WEFT Sessions
the Mondays of Christmas and New Years since host Todd Hunter travels home.
Instead engineer Mike Feldman puts together four hours of recorded songs,
one each from each of the bands that played WEFT Sessions in the course of the year.
The 2015 Past Shows page has links most performers' web pages
as well as links to Urbana Public Television's video of the shows and
usually links to videos on the WEFT Sessions web site.
So we have 50 live shows each year and to fill the 4 hours of the WEFT Sessions
and Local 901 shows' time slots. We can comfortably fit in 12 or 13 songs each hour.
