Friday morning was spent planning ideas and features for our Retro Room show and making a start on sorting out the music despite a problem with low storage space, again. Jo and Lamby have come up with having a connections based game and incoporating concert reviews but it looks as if we'll progress further in the coming weeks especially as Lamby pointed out that ideas don't just happen.
The afternoon consisted of a lecture about PRS/PPL licenses and station branding, where for the former it ended up with us going on a tangent about pubs having to have PRS licenses and the muddles that can prevail from those issues. Matthew also told us about him knowing a lawyer who deals with those sorts of issues to which Dave Baldwin responded "how can you hang about with a man like that?!"
When we looked at branding I volunteered to help read a script for a Kiss 100 "Smoove Grooves" promo sponsored by Nik Naks in which the script described the product as "little freaks". Luckily I didn't have to read that line out. We also had a listen to some rather forgetfull sung jingles for stations such as Key 103, Vibe FM, and Radio City.
I didn't leave until just after half 6 as I had to get Liz's techno show recorded and scheduled for tonight and the music producers in my group were still around as I was leaving. It didn't sound like they were planning however as James was telling Ina his views on the War in Iraq and how you should help someone if they've been knocked down by a vehicle. He wasn't all that keen on people who just say "yeah I might help them out" or "not sure", but his ideal response was for the one lifting the body to assure them that he or she would go to a better place. At this time now anywhere would be a better place than my bed in halls.
