Title: ...so i do a radio show - anyone like them some punk/rock/metal?!
Post by: spoon_of_grimbo on 12 Oct 2009, 10:50
a couple of mates of mine run an independent community radio station here in boston (lincolnshire, england), and they've kindly allowed me and a coupla buddies to do a punk/rock/metal show!  we've actually been doing it a coupla years now (not sure why i never thought to mention it on here before now!), and it's usually on sunday nights, but thanks to my working hours, we're on monday night (tonight!) this week.  the show starts in just over two hours time (9pm til 11pm GMT), and you can listen at www.endeavouronline.net

so if you're bored tonight and fancy hearing three dudes engaging in banter and rockage, give us a listen and maybe drop us an email or something?

awesome, thanks!

oh and by the way, because we've swapped slots with someone else, the schedule on the website will probably say that it's "monday madness with alex" or something, but it's not.  although as our usual show is "sunday night S&M" (we love the cheesy titles...), we'll probably think of a shitty random name for todays show when we get there!

This topic is relevant to my interests.

I'll listen in and maybe send some requests.

Also, your description paragraph is grammatically painful. Is this the start of the S+M?

if you're talking about the blurb on the website, it wasn't written by me or mike.  i haven't even read it myself, and i dont know if i want to... 

but yeah, we had a show last night (it should be back on sunday nights for the most part now.  next show being this coming sunday (25th October)), and it'd be great to have a few more listeners!

Also, what sort of content are you allowed to play? I would almost pay money to hear one of four Rammstein songs I'm thinking of be played on the radio.

(For those who are curious: Mein Teil, Wiener Blut, Pussy(which actually does have a radio edit), or B********.)

it's station policy to not allow swearing, but we've let a few slip through by accident.  shouldn't think there'd be a problem if the swearing's in a language other than english though...

I am posting on this thread to remind myself for tonight. I missed it last week for reasons I can't remember.

should be a laugh tonight, we've got two special guests - Kat (one of the other DJs on the station) and Foster, a mental bloke who occasionally resurfaces from the depths of Wales to join us on the radio.  So, double the banter!  and i'll be spinning a few Gainesville-centric tunes, in honour of The Fest that's going on this weekend in Florida (and which i'm gutted not to be at, after how amazing it was last year).

so yeah, should be good, so don't miss it!

Didn't realize you were English until last week. >_<

Ended up tuning in at the proper time, but on -5 GMT as opposed to GMT. I did catch the last 15 minutes yesterday, after coming back from a performance of Brahms' Shicksalslied and Haydn's Missa in Angustiis (better known as the Lord Nelson Mass). I have varied taste, and enjoyed the tail end. >_>

But it's another two weeks before I have a shot at being near an internet connection to hear the full show...
