konzert: this is the kit, rozi plain, jamie harrison, 01.10.12
Out 4 2012, 12h36 por klienicum
die gegend rund um ein arbeitsamt sollte an einem montagabend vor tristess blühen und zudem parkplätze in erschöpfender masse bereithalten. doch der schlachthof, einige kneipen und vor allem das ganz in der nähe rumpelnde oktoberfest versalzen einem in münchen am 01. oktober gehörig die suppe. mehrmals fuhren wir im karree, und es schoben sich die viertelstunden übers ziffernblatt, bis wir endlich eine parklücke erwischt hatten. wir fahren wirklich gern zum südstadt, das personal, die location selbst und vor allem das musikalische angebot sind jedes mal ausgezeichnet, aber die wenigen abstellmöglichkeiten für ein motorisiertes vierrad sind ein graus. zu allem übel begann das hervorragende programm dieses abends pünktlich, sprich 20:00 uhr, einer zeit, da man sich ansonsten noch die zähne putzt und den scheitel legt, bevor man sich überhaupt zu einem konzert aufmacht. und so traten wir in die dämmerbeleuchteten räume und sahen die unter dem namen This Is the Kit agierende kate stables (wir berichteten u. … -

Dandelion Radio - December 2008 Shows
Nov 30 2008, 23h06 por DandelionRadio
Festive Fifty voting is over - and the folks at Dandelion Radio are busy finding the tracks and compiling the show - to start playing as soon as we reach Christmas Day (midnight).
Meanwhile - here are the rest of the shows that are already scheduled, including a show from new boy, Matt Jones.
Andrew Morrison:
Andy's final show of 2008 celebrates both the old and the new. There's some classic selections from John Peel's past Festive Fifty polls, including The Boo Radleys, Laura Cantrell, Dave Clarke and Melys. Brand new music comes from Bloc Party, Samuraj Cities, The Race and Decoration (whose latest single is up for grabs in an exciting competition). You'll hear a track from Autons' new album that can be won in a second competition. Along with Teresa's Tasty Tips and Scott's Funky Five Minutes, you'll hear five alternative Christmas songs to get you in the mood for Dandelion Radio's Festive Fifty countdown show, broadcasting from Christmas Day until the end of January!

Dandelion Radio - October 2008 shows
Out 2 2008, 17h39 por DandelionRadio
Voting has opened for the Festive50
This month there are 23 hours, spread across 10 shows.
Andrew Morrison:
Andy's October show for Dandelion Radio features a live session from Alex Canasta, with four tracks recorded at their Copenhagen album launch party in August, along with a competition to win a copy of their debut album. As usual, there are two Tasty Tips from Teresa, and a Funky Five Minutes from Scott. The two hours of new and unsigned music include tunes from Lonely Ghosts, The Joy Formidable, Burial, and Decoration. Andy also marks the fourth anniversary of John Peel's death by playing one of John's favourite twelve-inch mixes. Listen in to find out what it is!
Jeff Grainger:
October's two hour Show follows the usual vague path previous shows have trodden; long, short, old, new and above all, getting hopelessly lost in the process. Accompanying our Album of the Month; F-A-R by Solanums and a brace of Northern Soul stompers. … -
