BBC to sell radio 1 and 2....!?

Currently listening to: "We Shall Overcome" - Bruce springsteen (We Shall Overcome: The Seeger Sessions)

Aparently BBC radio 1 and 2 are too popular and should be sold off to become commercial radio stations to give local commercial radio a chance.

Read all about it here.

I was so annoyed i went to the have your say section of BBC news and joined countless numbers of people expressing their dismay.

I wrote (and yeah, i know it might not be all good grammar, but hey!)

I cannot find a word to stress the extreme sadness that I would feel if BBC radio 2 were to stop being what it has become.

Radio 2 is the source of such rich music, stimulating documentaries and wonderful live events. DJ's like Bob Harris, unashamedly playing good music regardless of genre. Surely a privatised station would not hold these things to be so relivant?

There is a reason commercial radio is in the state it is, bland pop music, magazine style journalism and no substance.

Radio 2, for me and many others, is the independant thinking solution to an otherwise bland world of local radio.

"Dog" the oldest mullet man in town....

Now, I like a mullet as much as the next man, but this guy takes the biscuit.

He's a bounty hunter called "Dog". His show is on bravo every once in a while.

If you are feeling down, look for his programme, I laughed all the way through.

He is a solid rocker. He takes himself extremely seriously. He may be powered exclusively by hard rock and an American idiot standard issue, honest to God sense of doing the right thing.

In short, he's livin the dream of having long bleach blonde hair (covering his bald spot), packing a peice, wearing a pair of dodgy sunglasses and upholding "truth, justice and the american way!"

RAWK!

Karting

Currently listening to: "Unemployable" by Pearl Jam - album: "Pearl Jam"

Steria had its annual Karting challenge last week. It was a tough old grand prix.

It took all 9 years of driving like an idiot, and 9 penalty points, but it was not all in vain.

I kicked ass. Click here for the pictures.

(i look pregnant! - i'm not actually that fat, its just the 3 layers i was wearin' !)

Currently listening to "Marker In The Sand" - Pearl Jam (album: "Pearl Jam")

I recently bought Pearl Jam's album "Pearl Jam", I haven't received the disc yet, but they let me download it from the site, which was nice of them.

When i've listened more i'll try reviewing it, a thing i'm scared to do cuse I know i'm no Ross Thompson.
