Jeremy Vine is calling for a radio station to play purely JD music. He reckons he and 50,000 will tune in. Great idea I thought. Maybe it will happen in the future... If you look online at the vast amount of radio stations available then why not? While we are at it a radio station for NO, DM, Cocteaus, Cure, Chameleons etc etc.. :hat:

Why not just play the songs yourself?

It's a fair shout.

Who the fuck would listen to that?. The same 40-odd songs (great opportunity for some tedious ball-sack to jump on this thread and quote the exact number) played in rotation?

We've already got Spotify, Last FM etc.

Vine has got to be jesting, surely?.

In Vine's defence, he gave an after dinner speech at a function I attended before Christmas and was very entertaining. As we say round here...'just saying like'.

As you were.

Uh...just stream your own station. It can even be done on Second Life and offer DJ services. Good idea. easy to do.

That's not exactly what he said is it? I know he likes the band but he was talking about minority interest radio programming and used JD as an example.

If this does start up I will be able to "dance, dance , dance" to it.

Are you only counting proper released stuff or are you including the Darkman tapes?

Get Mike Read to DJ this proposed JD station.

Maybe he could do with the cash these days?

Hmm, eligibility criteria....I was only counting on said tedious ball-sacks getting involved and not a decent chap like yourself.

However, I realise this is probably all in the name of good humour so I'll relax.

Yeah, he's stone cold broke isn't he?

Like the administrators have auctioned off his not insignificant collection of rare vinyl, CDs, DJ paraphernalia (Radio 1 Road show jacket!)and memorabilia. Surprised quite how little some of it fetched.

His residence in East Sussex was cleared. Including a secluded out building which had a load of reallyrare stuff in it that it would appear he was trying to hide :nono: :laugh:

You know what caused his demise?

Apart from being a bit shit.

Lord no! Including Pictures.. would bring it up to a nice round 50, this then suggests that the catalogue number of Movement could actually mean something rather than significant as it's further recognition of the inheritance.... blah blah.
