Area was in full swing by the time I arrived, although there weren't too many second year radio students about as they decided to skip the proceedings in preparation for the news/magazine shows tomorrow. Those who followed my example included a certain Jo Cave along with her flatmates and other half Joey. The night started of with "BandOke" where the mentals got up on stage and started singing on stage although they could barely be heard due to the crap microphones. That's not to say that they weren't entertaining however as Ross G and David Jackson got on stage to entertain us with "Living On A Prayer" and there was a rather entertaining rendition of the Kaiser Chiefs from Chris Belson.
Ricky and Chris (first year radio) were on the decks after the caterwauling finished where Slade and Mariah Carey were played at least twice during their set although things got very pear shaped when Bar Manager Chris stuck Agadoo and forcing everyone to do the conga to it. The record didn't get played for long but even UWSU president Salima was joining in! There wasn't a snow machine as hoped for, more the opposite as it was pretty warm in there and the odours produced weren't the best of aromas. Thankfully the dry ice machines alleviated this.
I'm not sure if it's worth going to sleep now as I need to be up in around 5 hours to be on time for our final news programme which is being assessed. I'm not as nervous for this as the magazine show but I'm more concerned about my lack of productivity. Maybe worth listening to 5 Live to be enlightened. Well unless DOtun AdeBAYO is on, one of the most irritating and uncomprehensilble radio voices around.
