Most of the shows I've been listening to from the final week of the Spring semester had one major area of excitement which was the unvieling of the line up for the Reading and the Leeds festival.
One show in particular was "You Heard It Here First" where Mattie and Matt devoted the entire show to artists on the bill, one of which being Pendulum who Mattie asked listeners who were going to the festivals, to bring kazoos to their set to play along with their popular tune "Slam".
There was also a rather amusing moment when Matt's phone went off while on air which had the ringtone of "Jump" by Van Halen which Mattie asked if it was about
Eric Clapton's son.
Not the most tasteful comment but that's what the show's known for.
It was my final show that week where I was back in Studio 6 at long last although as mentioned earlier, I had quite a lot to drink before so I probably sounded a bit more hyped up than normal. I also had quite a selection of new stuff to play as well so I'm certain that was the strongest show of the semester.
Immediately after I went off to Denis's end of term do at his house where I got even worse as a result of drinking a whole pack of Red Russians and embarrased myself in front of a selection of the first and second year radio students and a few of their mates who had come over to visit.
I'm hoping to end up in a similar state at next week's Glasto in the Garden although I'll probably be DJing for some of the time which I hope will go well.
