Idiots, imbeciles, and morons

We know the difference now, do you? Clare found a book today that belonged to my Granddad, that I remember taking from their house when I was a child. With permission, I think.People with IQs below 70 are sometimes classified in the textbooks as feeb...

So long 6Music

Nice bright spring day today, a smashing day to get official confirmation from the BBC that 6Music is to be shut down. Seriously, cull radio one if you want to save some money / not duplicate what EVERY OTHER RADIO STATION is doing. Where do I go now...

BBC 6 Music autoresponse

They responded quickly to my complaint, but do not directly address my suggestion that they close down Radio 1 instead:Thanks for your e-mail regarding BBC 6 Music.All services are being reviewed at the moment as a part of the BBC wide Strategy Revie...

BBC to shut down 6Music :-(

Read all about it, what a shame. Bit of a bumbling incoherent post this one, I'm not happy, but I don't have time for eloquence or accuracy.Shut down Radio 1 and Radio 2 if you want to save some money! They are competing directly with ALL of the othe...

Brett Anderson - The Next Life - Live acoustic studio performance 2009

STRANGE, don't know what this is for, surely more fuel to the suede reunion rumours that may or may not be announced tomorrow:Brett Anderson performing classic Suede song 'The Next Life' live and acoustic for a UK television interview in 2009. Piano ...

My one is DAB only

So not an internet radio, that is something different. It's just like searching for normal radio, there aren't as many channels as I thought. There must be something out there that does what you mean....

Freakscene before breakfast

Still liking my new radio. I hope 6 Music's playlist is as free and wild as it appears to be, probably not though. No time for Alice Cooper today.No early awakening from Harry today, strange as he's been awake before us most days this week. He's bein...

Anyone need anything washing up?

Loving my new radio, tempted to move the table back into the kitchen so we can eat out there too. I know we could get all the radio stations through the TV, but there's something cool about having a new source of content in a place we did not have be...

Kicking and screaming into the '90s!

Yeah my new DAB radio turned up today. Got a text from Clare to say she'd gone to pick it up, and then convinced myself that it was actually the high chair instead, but no, it's here and it's great. All tuned in automatically, the marvels of modern ...

Think I'm settled on a Roberts IPOD dock

Not this one but the slightly older MP43 because Trusted Reviews says that the sleek no button look of the MP53 means you can't operate it apart from via the remote. Plus it's 50 quid less. Sound like a deal?Going to think on it a bit longer I think,...

What DAB radio IPOD dock should I get?

Considering this Roberts one or this from Denon. A chum recommends Chronos iDock but it looks a bit clock-radio to me. Want quite a big sound. Audiophiles do seem to slag off BOSE but I like the sound of the IPOD dock my folks have. So, anyone with a...

Trying to listen to @Herring1967 and @CollingsA on 6Music

Can normally listen to 6Music on the TV, but reception is no good here if anyone is behind the TV moving about, and Clare and the midwife have been. Not crouching behind the TV in the corner the room, but in the room that is behind the room where the...

Rise of the idiots

@dan_ashcroft is keeping tabs on the people who are killing twitter. I agree with you Kosso, that doesn't happen very often!...

Hey I know him!

Just looking at iplayer because Andrew Collins said so on his podcast, because two of his books appear in the screen shot type thing representing this episode of The Money Programme, and something LEAPS OUT AT ME! Someone I know. Hello Matt if you ha...

Who is Russell Brand?

Lordy, could Russell Brand have done anything better to raise his profile than that phone call to Andrew Sachs? Mostly it's probably the Hate Mail on Sunday that's to blame. When the original Russell Brand show went out, no-one was listening. It's on...

Barewires Recording Studio

Hey guys,Just a message to promote my recording studio:It's called Barewires, and is a purpose-built recording studio situated in Monks Horton. The studio was formerly known as Astra Audio and over the years has seen the likes of AC/DC and Wishbone A...

Fighting Cocks on BBC Asian Network

Chum Charlie is film reviewer on Sunday's BBC Asian Network (1hr 15 in), no need for Realplayer to play BBC radio! Cheers Mark for that.Off to the quiz tonight....

Look at the rubbish I went to in 1993

I was clearly going to anything that was going in 1993, but Pulp played Portsmouth TWICE in 1993 and I didn't go. What was going on? Radiohead also played Portsmouth and Southampton this year, supposedly my peak years when I was doing the fanzine, I ...

RE: Bring me the head of Jorge Zamudio

It is a nice photo, and a lovely apartment.

I can only assume Jorge has tagged the pic as a reminder to rob your brother in law's apartment sometime in the future. "Note to self, steal fashionably coloured seats by window".

Bring me the head of Jorge Zamudio

Who are you Jorge, why have you only one favourite picture, and it's this picture of my bro-in-law's Miami apartment?I think the apartment is up for sale right now, I'm sure I can do you a deal if you get in touch....

Do not recycle from last night's Dio show

Foo Fighters tour rider, quite amusing. I didn't even know there were nine vegans.

Are you sure Hazel didn't register in both your names?

I wouldn't think the BBC would spam out invitations for something like this. We both registered (in our own names) though I didn't go for the competition aspect of it, so I won't get some researcher from Radio One seeing if I'm fun enough (and young ...

RE: Radio 1 big weekend lineup

Seems the BBC are taking matters into their own hands and creating yet another competition disaster - apparently both Hazel and I have registered! NO we haven't BBC if you are reading and I want them to tell me where they got all my details from.

Radio 1 big weekend lineup

This is a free festival in Maidstone in a couple of weeks, you can register for tickets today, but please don't, it will decrease my chance of getting any:Saturday 10 May Main StageMadonna, The Fratellis, Usher, Scouting For Girls, Duffy, The Feeling...

Strange time travel

As previously possibly mentioned, I am listening to old Mark Radcliffe radio shows, on the mp3. Just listened to the last ever graveyard shift show on Radio One, and then (in exactly the wrong order) the first ever graveyard shift show from 1993. And...
