There is certain beauty in cheap bars, with their old pool tables and malfunctioning jukeboxes, hiding scars behind neon lights. There is an untold charm in the wobbly stools and the stinking bathrooms. Some people might never be able to see the gritty allure of the dive bar world. Lucky for us, our Bostonian guides have a small budget, thirsty livers, and open minds.

A nameless guitar discovered in a Florida pawn shop is asking important questions with surprisingly unimportant answers. A man ready to try to save a woman who only wants to see him falling. A Jim White interview is much like a one of his songs: you can read a story between the lines.

Tango has its roots in Argentina, but today this dance of love and passion can be found worldwide. Few places outside of Buenos Aires embrace the close embrace like San Francisco, California.

Jim’s known for writing about bible-thumping rural Florida, but it wasn’t until he headed north that his music started to reflect the place he grew up. His ticket out of town was a call from his sister, who had lined up a job for him as a fashion model!

Talented San Francisco DJ talks about her hometown and how much she’s grown to appreciate it. Often times you have to leave a place to realize how good it really is!

Luckily, the fundraiser was a big success, and the movie got a lot of great press. Thousands of dollars were raised; WBER got the transmitter and the gear it needed.

When a non-commercial radio station needs gear, and it doesn’t have money in the budget, it must turn to the audience and ask for help. When Tim Beideck heard that WBER’s transmitter urgently needed replacing, he decided to turn the premiere of Drivers Wanted into a fundraiser for the station.

WBER is a radio station in Rochester, New York, in the Northeastern part of the United States. Anyone in the Rochester area can be a DJ on the station, if they are willing to put the time in.
