one of the bands that have played Gourock's Cafe Continental Beatclub. I've only been the once, to see Kassidy, but they get some great bands. This was a puzzle to me in such a wee venue but it eventually all became clear and I'm still mortified at sending an e-mail congratulating the organiser on getting such a high profile band as Kassidy. Why my riddy? Turns out he works for Mercury, he signed Kassidy and he runs a spot on radio 1. Jeezo.

However, there were a fair number of blog requests played. Not mine right enough, but I'm probably back on the naughty step for saying what I thought of Friday's theme, or else they're just saving up for tomorrow because my suggestions above are so good.

it was me - I enjoyed it.A few other folks also communicated the same.
Given the 'non theme' nature of the programme I'd was fearful it would decend into a greatest hits show, but I think Bryan and Richard avoided that trap.
I was taken a back when my Macca shout got played, wasn't the most obvious.
