´óÏó´«Ã½

Next week's themes...

|

Apologies. I had meant to get these online on Saturday, but I got a new computer over the weekend and it's taken me till Sunday morning to get it online. Then there was at least twelve hours to faff about choosing new icons, deciding what I'm going to have for my desktop and wondering how I ever lived without Spaces, Time Machine and Dashboard all of which I am told will make my life so much easier.

Sadly none of those fancy new programs will get through the ironing before Monday morning, but I suspect it's something Steve Jobs is working on.


Monday
One again it’s the return of Happy Mondays. I spent Saturday morning interviewing Mindy Smith about why tragic events make the best songs and then spent a wonderful Saturday night watching wail his way through a fantastic set at The Edinburgh Playhouse. For me, it was a perfect day. You will have guessed that cheery tunes are not my bag so it's a good job it's you who picks the music...I presume Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now is not going to make it tonight?


Tuesday
From Sugar Sugar to Duran Duran - Gillian McFarlane suggests the theme of repetition for tonight’s show. E-mail getiton@bbc.co.uk with your dynamic doublers or leave a comment below…


Wednesday
It’s crime season on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Scotland, and tonight Get It On joins in with an hour of criminal records. We could play anything from Folsom Prison Blues to Bankrobber by The Clash, so let me know your favourites...


Thursday
On this day in 1999, Blondie made history by becoming the first act to have number ones in the 70s, 80s and 90s. On tonight's show we salute the stars who have spanned the decades. Get on the E-mail and nominate the bands who have stood the test of time... or why not leave a comment on the blog?
