Sinister: Good radio programs?
Hello, and thanks for the warm welcome. A point of discussion... I've recently been listening to Evening Session and John Peel alot more, and I'm pretty sure there are more radio programs out there that play some more interesting music than the standard R1 playlist. Has anyone come across anything they'd like to tell me about? I discovered yesterday that I could get 6music on the internet and was listening to it at work most of yesterday. It's pretty good, just loads of songs that you wouldn't normally expect to hear. It's a shame that it's a digital station. Another point of discussion, does anyone know if you can get normal radio stations on a digital radio? I know nothing about digital radio.

Helen Welcome to sinister! One I really like is KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic. http://www.kcrw.com/show/mb I don't think B&S have been on it, but there are loads of good programmes - Rosie Thomas, Stars, Luna - online. I heard that lots of online radion stations in the US may close as they can't afford to pay for the music, now that the Recording Artists thing is cracking down on "illegal" broadcasts. On another tack, I was watching a programme on Orlando, by Virginia Woolf, recently, and they showed the film clip where Orlando likens his/her lover to a "pineapple, a fox in the snow." Any of you literary people know if this is the first conscious grouping of those words, and is that where the song title comes from, and therefore Stuart reads poncy girl's books? It also made me want to reread Orlando, and see the film, and listen to Fox in the Snow. conversations...hmm - they do take *time*, don't they? You have to listen as well as speak. I do silently enjoy many of the posts on sinister, but perhaps I don't respond often as I am scared I may have misinterpreted what someone has said, and then everyone else on the list will think I am a luser. So, I resolve to be less scared.

Hmm.. Since realising some time ago that SM:TV was a pile of shite without Ant & Dec, I started getting my Saturday morning entertainment from the radio. The new trendy Radio 2 in fact. Jonathan Ross has about the best show on daytime BBC radio at the moment - probably the only show where you can hear the Flaming Lips, the Pixies, the Sex Pistols and at least two David Bowie tracks in the space of an hour. The chatty bits aren't bad, either - shame about the irritating 'banter' from his producer though. Stout said: "boss eyed hairy old fools shouting their madness into the darkness and dribbling down their beards." He's met me, y'know. Have fun everyone going to the Brighton picnic. I won't be there due to some inconsiderate wedding scheduling on the part of some friends. Although fans of seaside picnics should watch this space for further announcements *pause for effect*... S'all a bit confusing over this Burnley business ain't it? Safe bet it's not happening since A: the B&S site has nothing written about it and B: Katrina said so (via Carsmile). Whither Neil though? Usually when the unfounded rumours start flying, Mr. Robertson can be relied upon to eloquently set our gossiping indie asses straight. Is he too busy these days hanging Rough Trade execs out of 5th floor windows to settle small print 'issues'? Rock on? Robster __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
