Now we all love to have a moan about djs being totally charmless and totaly surplus to requiement as human beings but I have to announce that this man surely is the man who shames the very notion of the word dj by just leaving the house in the morning - have you heard his show? Apart from feeling immediately under the influence of a spiked drink once you hear his droning voice and hackneyed 'you the listener' platitudes he plays the most conservative middle of the road indie/rock/pop known to man. Next to him daytime xfm is like listening to Stockhausen. In a wind tunnel. On drugs. After a night out with Musique Concrete.
In these dangerous times (music wise) and with so many forms of media to make a difference why do we have people who think that its ok for an alternative radio station to play the Foo Fighters and Snow Patrol (a live version of Run - why?) constantly on a tape loop when commercially run stations do that as par of the course. If I said he played a Buzzcocks song last night I bet you can guess within a nanosecond which one it was. Prick.
