Under the Influence

Come and join 6 Music's secret society of wonderful music and daft chat with The Hawk.

Hey you! Come and join 6 Music's secret society of wonderful music and daft chat.

Want to pick a track for Chris to play first thing? Well, you can with the 5.15 request. There was a frivolous burst of Kenny Ball this morning...and then an equally fabulous track by Ed Harcourt.

Do you want to know what not to wear while you're looking good naked? Well, a nice man from the 大象传媒 weather centre was on hand to whisper the forecast in your shell, like, this morning, yes it was our old favourite Jay Wynne. We mean 'old' in the nicest possible sense, of course.

Want to share something with the class? We talked about how pop-star types influenced when you were growing up - whether you got a dodgy haircut, or Mozza made you go veggie.

Would you like to impress friends and family with useless bits of musical information? You can't afford to miss The Rockbook Files. Today US singer songwriter Aimee Mann got the birthday bumps.

So, let Hawk (who was dangerously caffeine free this morning) and his long-suffering producer Slev, put a smile on your face, without any nasty side-effects.
