[Zimmerman]

from memory, the First Aid Kit tracks were on at 19:20ish, 19:45-50ish, and maybe 20:10ish.

Edit: yes, 20 mins, 46 mins and 1h 11.

[blahblah]

One or two FISOers ARE banned

Explain?

They had them on Good\Bad Day the other day...

[Zimmerman]

Just a play on words… you asked if some fisoers were in the band, i said some fisoers were banned

[blahblah]

I was ready to be impressed. (Admittedly, I tend only to know new(ish) songs for the few plays between them being impressive, and played too much. Laura being a prime example.)

[Zimmerman]

Laura (as in Bats for Lashes)?

Like any radio station, if you listen for too long, you hear the same songs too much

Bats for Lashes - Laura
The Cat Power track
XX new one (which REALLY annoys me)
First Aid Kit - Emmylou

The other two tracks First Aid Kit played were really good though (one a Simon and Garf cover).

[DrBunker]

They tend not to overplay songs as much as the 'standard' stations though, largely because they're always finding so much new stuff. I'm still enjoying Laura as it was a grower that I was not keen on to start with, same with the XX track.

[blahblah]

And aren't scared to play old stuff.

And yes to the XX track, which I do not know the title of, either.

[DrBunker]

And aren't scared to play old stuff.

Absolutely, one of the reasons I love the station is that aside from a small playlist they can play whatever they like and not in a commercial radio sense. I hear as much old stuff I've never heard of as I do new stuff which is fantastic as there's often much more of a back catalogue to go through in that case!

[Zimmerman]

Undoubtedly, thats the beauty of it.

In amongst the new (overplayed playlist) each DJ will intersperse loads of classics and rarities.

Nemone was doing the breakfast stint today… here's her playlist:-

[DrBunker]

What's funny about that list is that my alarm went off 15 minutes before she came on and I can't remember hearing lots of the first 10 or so songs - I need to get better at waking up!

Not a great fan of 6 Music, prefer Xfm & Kerrang! but I must give credit where its due.
A superb new double album is out today from the live sessions on the station.
Tough job to find the pick of the bunch but Jimi Goodwin of Doves & James Dean Bradfield of The Manics are in great form.
All live, no auto tune, after listening in vain to hear some half decent vocals on xfactor this is the ideal antidote, Lana Del Rey is rather good too.

Cheers for the heads up. Will give it a listen.

[DrBunker]

Thanks for the recommendation. I managed to miss every single live act from Live Music Monday yesterday. I'll have to try to find them on iPlayer as I was looking forward to most of them.

For those that care...Public Service Broadcasting in session tonight on Marc Riley's show, from 7pm onwards. OOOF!

[Zimmerman]

Bollocks

Won't get round to listening online.

all on tape really so not sure of the point of a PSB session.....

Hardly! The main man (Wilgoose I think he goes by) never stops moving all gig - sets some backing tracks going, plays a bit of guitar, loops it, plays some samples, loops a bit of banjo, it's entertaining just watching him - check this out:

I think (hope) that was a joke!

I'd love to see them live but this is a Radio 6 session.

OK, I got a bit carried away with the visual description, but my point was that it's not all on tape, it's a genuine live music experience.

[moonlightdribbler]

Well Marc Riley seemed to enjoy it anyway (I think).

[DrBunker]

Wow, he is a lot less fat than I had imagined him to be.

That is all.

[moonlightdribbler]

Wow, he is a lot less fat than I had imagined him to be.

I think the name 'Lard' was always a bit harsh!

[moonlightdribbler]

Bit late with the warning, but currently halfway through the 6Music Pixies inspired playlist on the @nowplaying show. Worth a listen!

[Zimmerman]

[moonlightdribbler]

Nice work Zim, seems a bargain. I'd pay double that just to get close to Mary Anne Hobbs


What's the venue?

[paisleypark]

Venue is the Warehouse area next to Media City.

I think I am there promoting Record Store Day alongside some real record stores who will be part of a marketplace promotion.

[Zimmerman]

I'll come and see you PP.

What's the venue?

She's replied to a couple of Ms Zimms tweets. And even dedicated a song to her on Monday night my mrs has now been mentioned by Keaveny, Lemacq and Hobbs. She's a 6Stalker.
