BBC6 Radio - comment, discussion and moans

[Johnny Vodka]

Fuck me. What will it be like when Liz goes. I've just turned the radio off. Nothing like celebrating a racist womaniser to keep up lockdown morale

Liz the Queen or Liz Kershaw?

 

[Me76]

I find it very rude for everyone to assume we give a shit!

 

[starfish]

They're doing it to punish us.

 

[CNT36]

The BBC is not your friend, they're the national broadcaster - what were you expecting?

Nanny state. No personal responsibility.

 

[Mogden]

Liz the Queen or Liz Kershaw?

Either! They'll both raise a cheer when they go.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

6 Music has at least returned to music but I'm detecting a sort of maudlin theme.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Guessing there's no Ravers tonight. Fuck's sake.

 

[Cerv]

Guessing there's no Ravers tonight. Fuck's sake.

his regular Friday night is pre-recorded still. hopefully they'll stick it out midweek and not just bin the whole episode

 

[Mattym]

Ambient Focus is on- whatever that is. I'm thinking back to that Bowie weekend a while back- 72 hours. You can guess which way this will go.

 

[MBV]

Listening now - seems very subdued.

 

[Petcha]

Arrangements for Phil's death were named Operation Forth Bridge which involved the beeb clearing their schedules (including Masterchef). Operation London Bridge is lizzie's codename and fucking hell I don't want to be in the country for that.

 

[marty21]

Playing music but no banter and gentle music

Listening now - seems very subdued.

Very subdued

 

[rubbershoes]

Play some fucking techno

 

[Sprocket.]

Play some fucking techno

Some roots reggae, just for Phil.

 

[Mogden]

Tried Radcliffe and Maconie this morning. Nope.

 

[bellaozzydog]

Tried Radcliffe and Maconie this morning. Nope.

dirge, although probably the only time you’ll get some spiritualized played

a full Spacemen 3 album would do the job and cover the sorrowful requirements of the BBC

 

[Petcha]

While I'm quite enjoying the depressing theme we've got going on (just going through a break-up), it's also kind of destroying some of my favourite songs. I love maudlin Longpigs and Bloc Party tunes. But not in honour of a racist old parasite thanks.

 

[marty21]

Tried Radcliffe and Maconie this morning. Nope.

Yep, had to turn off , subdued music and Radcliffe telling me the Duke had died after every fucking song

 

[marty21]

Some roots reggae, just for Phil.

Phil loved death metal , play some

Innit! Fucking Theresa May waffling on about the nation mourning him! Like fuck I am! Really winds me up.

Theyre actually not talking too much. Which is a quite nice silver lining to the devastating news of yesterday.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

Play some fucking techno

It's a case of BYO.

 

[Petcha]

Ah fuck it. I'm turning it off. Off to the newsagent, that's my saturday sorted.

 

[Sweet FA]

the only time you’ll get some spiritualized played

Really - I get the feeling I'm never more than a couple of days away from Spiritualized on 6. They're like the acceptable Oasis.

 

[Sweet FA]

This fucking maudlin old shite is getting right on my tit though. It was sort of alright for a wake and bake but I've finished my coffee and need to get off my arse.

Dont worry, there's only 7 days of national mourning left

 

[Sprocket.]

died after every fucking song

I’ve worked with cover bands this happened to.

 

[spitfire]

I saw this mentioned on the main thread. Thought they were joking. 144 pages. How?

 

[Sweet FA]

spitfire, don't get me wrong, I love Spiritualized as much as the next person who's sat mashed in stranger's rooms at stupid o clock in the morning for the entire 90s. Pierce does get a bit over venerated though.
