Just said 'Hello to the Vikings'!
"and with the smell of burning longboats, here's the track.."

That was brilliant....
Almost sounded like Matt Munro singing 
i'm off to the pub to watch the rugby (once ATR gets here) will use the listen again option methinks.

Trying to design them badges was funny as fuck - there were a flurry of emails between several of us trying to decide whether they looked too gay or not, that lasted for a good few days 
I will text Al now 
What did Hooky say about half an hour ago? he was going out for a sanwich or he had finished his participation in the show?
Could have at least said goodbye
He's back
Wants a Hooky's Devils group to rival the Barney's Angels.
And Steve wants a following called Steve's Quiet Life.
Funny bastards the pair of them.
And LOL at those French Angels.....go girls.
Hooky's Devils? WTF...Hooky's idea, or did Karine feel sorry for him.

surely that's just NOOLers 3-non noolers 0
?
Besides if you DO want to get picky...the vikings got an exclusive performance dedicated to them of their very own theme song, so they are clear winners.
French chicks rock though :D

The implication being that Vikings are NOOLers? Not really the case, you don't have to post on NOOL to be a Viking. You just have to do New Order gigs.
Don't be picky matey, you know exactly what I meant :D
Nutters 3 - Rest of the world 0
better? :D (don't u dare start defending Viking sanity ;) )
EDIT: actually in fairness since the names mentioned were your good self and les jeunes filles francais (as I reach back 20 years to highschool for that)...my statement stands quite well. Oh and there are non NOOL Angels too. And Viking Angels and so on :)

Sorry, missed it all. Listening to a top class programme on another channel (the commentary from Elland Road) did I miss owt?
You can listen to it all on the 6 Music website. Some amusing bits, and some great tunes as well. Paul Haig's version of Atmosphere was excellent, and there was some really good Japanese house as well. Enjoyed the Circus Girls tracks too.

That Japanese track was fecking classic, so was the French D+B/Ska :D
that version of atmos was good, but, i'm not sure the curtis-esque vocal really sat with that arrangement quite as well as something lighter, even female, would have.

I rather got the impression it was an "under the counter" job.
can always nick it off webcast if you can stomach the quality
For the record, it's archived there:

I recorded the whole thing off my digibox which is better quality than the webstream, can always extract said track if you're interested. Can't find any listing anywhere of an official release of it. Mind you, can't find much about Paul Haig full stop on t'internet.
There's a Paul Haig website here- he used to release stuff via Les Disques Du Crepescule (some/all? have been reissued via LTM), and Barney/Donald Johnson produced his track "The Only Truth" (available on the compilation "Cool As Ice").
Anyway, can't find a release of "Atmosphere", so either it's due out shortly, or it'll remain unreleased! :)

Al texted me just after it happened so think he already knew Shug. hah hah - the "i still think it looks like a rocking horse" comments on those badges were ace
Just finished listening to it - over two days.
Forgot how entertaining Steve can be.
Great to hear the Vikings hello. Although now the term 'Barney's Angels' has been planted in Hooky's mind it may surface again in the future.

Maybe as a new track name? 
Well, my payback for my efforts will be Hooky taking the living piss out of Bernard :D
I take it Ness, you'd be first in line for Hooky's devils LOL
(someone else's problame that lot heheheh)
Seriously tho...I laughed my bollox off from one oend of that show to the other.
CHAMPIONS!
I never get enough of Hooky/Steve humor, and congrats on the mention you guys!
I'm not against them having a regular feature of their wits. I could live with that.
I would like to be the first member and therefore president of Steve's Quiet Life Inc. Who would like to design a badge?

I'd say you just volunteered :D

Oh that's bad. :P Mind I'm still waiting for badges. From both factions.
I still think a Matilda Heavy would be a great tank to silhouette as a badge image for a Steve group. At the very least a Churchill VII. Stout tanks.
What does everyone think of the music they played? Don't know if it was their selections or what but it was good anyway. Gillians choice was v good, as was Mrs Hookys.
After listening I went out and bought
- The Life Pursuit by Belle and Sebastian (for Sukie in the Graveyard)
- Ballyhoo by Echo and the Bunnymen (for Silver)
and Depeche Mode just cos I wanted it.
Wasn't keen on the house music they played. Quite like WAS - Nobody move, nobody get hurt. I also like Daft Punk is playing etc but they didn't seem too keen on it. The 2nd last track by Pulp was crap.
i listened to it last night. very entertaining. i did like jack's text request for perl jam. hooky and steve are one of the great comedy duos. they should get a go at doing some sports broadcasting.

Hi can you post your review of "the life pursuit please ? I only know the wonderful song "another sunny day" ! I bought "siberia" from Echo&the bunnymen and just discovered "What are you going to do with your life" (Echo&the bunnymen 1999) both of them are pretty good !

was that you who texted during this?
well it was only a funny saturday afternoon:) They give a bit sun in my day:) Anyway it's still snowing again here:\ohwell:
Am just listening now - i'm worse than Ness, this is my 4th day to try to listen in - & i've only got through the 1st hour
But anyway,
I do love the smell of burning longboat in the morning!
I love the Life Persuit. The tracks are great - including such gems as Sukie in the Graveyard, We are the Sleepyheads and heaps more. It's very bouncy and enjoyable, a very 'up' record. I'd thoroughly recommend it to everyone as an investment and a very good record as a whole with no album filler tracks. Buy it and you won't regret it.
Still lovin echo and the bunnymens Silver.
The show is now gone from the website unfortunatly - went back to listen to the rest and it was gone.:(
Does anyone know the name of the version of Candi Statons You Got the love that they played? I have a different version on my Wild compilation, syas the source feat. candi staton. Will the version they played on the show be the version on the Hacienda classics comp?
Additonally, here is a pic on steve and hooky in the studio
