Let’s Eat: Breakfast (remastered)

While we’re not sure whether remastering a breakfast is a good idea, we will still have a remaster of our first meal-related shows this week, the theme being breakfast. And no, we’re not out to lunch on that one—Lunch will be covered in a later show.

It’s That Time of the Year

where we finally get Ed to produce a script, being our yearly review of the preceding year of shows, picking his favourite tracks from them.

Diamonds and Ice

This week’s showing is a remaster of our 75th show (man, that was a long time ago… going strongly towards our 250th original show these days!), so the themes are diamonds and ice. A quite diverse field of music will be presented, too.

206 Billy Joel

A show featuring a very popular musician of great worldwide fame who is still touring at age 73, twenty years after his most recent studio album was released.

A peak of 27 listeners, which may sound disappointing, but it was Mysterium weekend and during the summer holidays, so it’s a solid result.

The preshow had Billy in some of his previous bands and on some early demos.

Billy Joel

This week, we are going to look at the music and career of Billy Joel. If you’re like I and have no idea who that is, or don’t know what kind of music he does, this is the show for you! Also if you like Billy Joel and want to hear some of his music.

073R Rock Humour II: Turned Up to 11!

A second batch of Rock Humour, featuring some of the bands that we missed the first time around.    Mostly good clean fun, and a peak of 20 listeners. not bad for a summer holiday show.

Preshow was from my stash, end of the G’s and a first H.
