(278 views)Can't get Virgin radio up here in the Midlands unless you use 1215 MW. I always thought the reception was pretty good, so was surprised when, on driving into London to visit family, I switched to the FM frequency and found I had much better sound quality. Didn;t realise there was so much difference. Amy MacDonald sounded far better on the clearer FM station, but it didn;t make much difference to the Kaiser Chiefs. Go figure.
Gosh that was a dull post. Oh well.

(117 views)...I like seem to be American or Canadian and rarely perform over here... anyone familiar with Sarah Harmer/Josh Ritter style music- do you have a recommendations for artists with a similar relaxed, acoustic sound with a light touch of humour??
(138 views)You get to win competitions for getting off your arse and taking your children to school as well as doing a job? Big bloody deal, what's worthy of a trip to Prague about that? I don't think the other contestant was given a fair chance.

Perfect for the kind of acoustic artists I love to see live like Tom McRae or Sarah Harmer. I need to find out who's going to be playing there over the next month, then organise a trip to London... even better - if someone coudl recommend a similar club in the Midlands that'd be great!
