Did anyone apart from Carolyn & I get to hear The Long Goodbye reviewed on BBC Southern Counties on Sunday evening? Bit of a 50/50 split between those who liked them and those who didn't. The keyboards came in for quite a bit of criticism, I'm afraid...

...And you can hear me on this evening's show recommending To The Moon Alice, on the i>Player (about 24'30" into the show) - arranged this afternoon via East Magazine. Co-incidentally, I'm on just after someone else was raving about White Lies again).

To The Moon Alice's track is Shomenano www.myspace.com/yeswehavethetechnology ; White Lies' track is their current major label single To Lose My Life www.myspace.com/whitelies (local interest being Tommy Bowen's involvement as additional keyboard player, I suppose); whilst the Maths Class track, Nerves, that was on last week's show is also on the new Artrocker magazine covermount cd www.myspace.com/mathsclass www.artrockermagazine.com - Maths Class being the Brighton band East's Dave Standen tipped in the podcast we did last year. Is anyone up for the Your Friends Are Architects/To The Moon Alice gig at the Crypt on Thursday (the Ready Steady Glow Xmas party)? I'm tempted to go, but I'd probably have to run back to Brighton for a few hours on the Friday to get my work done...

Cheers - although it was more by accident than design that I did it... I think Adam made the initial contact on behalf of the magazine, and when Radio 1 got back to him I was the first person they could find who was free to take part (not the first person they asked!) I rang a very pleasant woman at the BBC called Emily Dicks, then she called me back from the studio and we taped it down the phoneline. Apart from a brief couple of edits (omitting me stumbling over my intro, and a mention of last week's gig by The Shapes) you're pretty much hearing it off the top of my head.
Oh, I did have free rein to suggest who I wanted to recommend, by the way - I just didn't think talking about any of our friends would be quite the proper thing. Hence picking TTMA - a band I've got no nepotistic connections with at all!

Just been on the phone to the Lamacq show again, discussing Your Friends Are Architects splitting. Should be on tonight - if you hear it, flag it up on here, 'cos I'm meant to be out with Rich from Overhead Wires at The Hope tonight, so will probably miss it. In the meantime, why not give Lee & Jim Holland's New Year's Eve podcast a listen?

Coincidentally, we're recording a new one tonight. This one will involve alcohol and so will potentially be funnier (to us at least), scandalous and possibly libellous. Depending on who's answer machines we leave messages on.....

Lamacq Listen Again and Podcast Lee - will you be picking celebrity phone numbers, random members of the public, or, um, us lot to call? On guard, everyone.

Last night's Lamacq show on i>Player, with a bit of me plugging this Friday's Eastbourne Festival Live and Acusis' headline slot, in the section beginning at 25'45". Truncated podcast here.

In a wine-related moment, I got a text read out this evening on the Mark Radcliffe/Stuart Maconie show on Radio 2. ( i>Player at 1hr 34') To keep this up, I just need to think of a contribution for Radio 3 tomorrow, Radio 4 Thursday, etc. Any ideas?

Woot! I love them...which I'm aware probably makes me a forty-something man, but I'm not sure that I care.

You're right Stu. She played an SH-101 making sea and wind noises on their performance of 'the storm' on 'the Word' in the early '90s

Bit of breathless post-ATP reporting on the Steve Lamacq In New Music We Trust show yesterday evening, with a special mention for The Soft Pack. On i>Player, from about 24'20", or truncated PodcastThis came about 'cos the Lamacq office was ringing around the contributors from this neck of the woods on Thursday night, trying to find ones going to The Great Escape who could file a report for Monday. When I said I was going to ATP instead, they asked if I'd do a report on that for them instead. So they rang me yesterday afternoon, while Carolyn & I were killing time between train connections in the Crown & Sceptre pub in Taunton (where, strangely, they have their own regional listings magazine that looks A LOT like Ultimate Alternative, but is called - get this - Scrumpy 'n' Western!) 'Cos the pub was full of lunchtime Taunton drinkers and fellow ATP casualties, it was too noisy to record the feature, so I had to run outside onto the High Street, and find somewhere quieter to chat - which turned out to be the glamorous setting of the forecourt of Taunton's Kwik Fit. Halfway through the taping, it started absolutely chucking it down! Then, when I got to the end, Radio 1 realised their computer had stalled, so we had to go through it all again 15 minutes later (by which point I'd gone back to the pub for shelter). When they rang back, the sun had come out again, but I still had to take myself back round the corner to Kwik Fit to find a quiet spot, hence sounding rather out of breath on the radio. All this is a bit more interesting than listening to the review itself though...

Due to playing Kraftwerk's 'Computer World' album having been shoppng in PC World for a £25 print cartridge (this is how I get my kicks people) I didn't hear it fall out of my pocket. If anyone happens to come across a Lexmark #2 somewhere between Bexhill and Hastings, please return it to me :-(

There's also a few more hours left to hear The Late Greats' Janice Long session from last week, if you're at a loose end.

Lamacq's been axed from Radio 1 now (his last show was Monday before the Bank Holiday) - although he's still on 6 Music.
Oh well, it was fun being on!
