Only just heard from my mum that Neil was on the Elton John thing. Any youtube yet?

How far in was he on it?

Neil is on LBC Sunday morning from 6am for an hour with Steve Allen 'In Conversation'. www.lbc.co.uk

I wonder whether anyone recorded this?

There is a Classic FM podcast also including Neil though!

Hmmm, it doesn't look as if they were on the Lauren Laverne show today after all. Maybe they cancelled as the ballet has sold out!

She's a Mackem, isn't she? Neil's just being tribal.

They are on BBC Breakfast at 9.00 this morning...

they were EVEN in czech TV

Neil and Chris were interviewed by Lauren Laverne on BBC 6 Music on Monday morning. They are on about 1 hour 40 minutes in.

It is actually rather a good interview. They talk about the ballet obviously, but also the charts, Eurovision ( "a thankless task") and a little about the next album. They have written - but not recorded - "some pop, some dance, some more introspective, miserable stuff for the older market - the manics, the depressives!"

Chris also says, rather intriguing, "Maybe we will be asked to do the Olympics ceremony or something, who knows?".


Javier Fruity was on Radio 3 too:

The ballet will be discussed on The Review Show on BBC2 on Friday 25 March at 11pm.

Round table arts and culture discussion programme. Tim Marlow is joined by guests including novelist Denise Mina, Rev Richard Coles and Natalie Haynes to discuss the Pet Shop Boys' dance extravaganza 'The Most Incredible Thing' at Sadlers Wells, Kevin McDonald's epic movie 'The Eagle', the latest in the Wallander crime novels series and a new exhibition at the Wellcome Institute focussing on, of all things, dirt.

Review show as above. Right from the start.

Pretty reasonable reactions. I remember when Closer to Heaven was reviewed on the same show and it was absolutely slated.

Interestingly, one of the guests is a certain Richard Coles (now the Reverend Coles) formerly of the Communards, and he who added his piano skills to 'What Keeps Mankind Alive'.

In the UK tonight (sunday) at 8pm on Sky Arts 1 is Pet SHop Boys with Dave Fanning. An interview from around 2006 if my memory serves me correctly...
