November 6 2002 - Soledad Brothers live

The Soledad Brothers' set look like it takes up about half of tonight's show. We've also got Add N To (X), Lonnie Donegan and Bauhaus, of all people.

November 5 2002 - Laura Cantrell

Apologies for the silence over the last couple of days - I've been having some trouble with my wireless connection this week. It's taken three days of partially complete uploads and dropped connections before I finally got this show up. Laura Cantrell is in session and there are tracks from Stereolab, Soledad Brothers and My Morning Jacket.

October 23 2002 - Mr Bird

The BBC tracklisting for this show is a bit weird - it has a number of tracks duplicated. I'm assuming it's OK apart from that - I haven't actually listened to this one to check it. Mark E Smith pops up again tonight, as do The Delgados and The Soft Machine.

October 22 2002 - Circle

Only two tracks in tonight's session, so I assume they're long ones. Mark E Smith makes one of his regular appearances as well, as do Half Man Half Biscuit and Laura Cantrell, yet again.

What I did on my holidays

While I convert the next batch of shows to proper mp3 format, I thought I'd post a link to the thing that kept me away from this place for so long. Once the busy spell at work had finished, I set to work making this for a competition on the Adam & Joe radio show:



Explosions in the Sky are on their way...

October 10 2002 - The Pet Shop Boys

Everyone's favourite ex-editor of Smash Hits is in session tonight. Also appearing are Explosions in the Sky, Boom Bip and Leeds nearly-weres Bilge Pump. They did a show near me just recently that I only found out about after they'd been and gone, fact fans.

October 9 2002 - DJ /rupture Live

I'm back again. That all took a bit longer than I was expecting.

I had to check on wikipedia to make sure DJ /rupture wasn't another BBC tracklisting typo but it looks like it's right. Ballboy, Mose Allison and Liars also appear on tonight's show.

I'll try and post a couple more shows over the weekend to make up for my extended absence.
