Cant see any mention but Neil is about to be interviewed by Stuart Maconie on Radio 2 just directly. He's on after the news.

It is hidden in the TV thread. Listen live here:

The TV and radio thread is great for long-distance advance warning of shows, but it's pretty crap for reminding people of an impending event. This thread will conveniently double as a reminder and a discussion for what His Tennantness has to say...

Stuart Maconie has always been a bit of a fan. I remember him from his days on Radio 1, but more for his Select magazine contributions in the early '90s.
Select, like Melody Maker and Record Mirror, was a loss. All were great champions of our heroes.

Record Mirror was like a PSB fanzine at times, wasn't it?

Record Mirror had this slightly ludicrous (but endearing) habit of calling them the "Petties" or the "Petshops" whenever they were propagandising on behalf of Behaviour or Performance.
I wonder if Maconie will discuss the new album with Neil. He made a positive reference to it earlier, so here's hoping we get some insight.

PS The "Petsoes" was another one. *shakes head*

That song about 5 minutes ago was nice. Anyone know who it was? My stream keeps going funny.

The Ting Tings are on at the moment...
Can't imagine there are too many over-earnest disquisitions of their lyrics on their fan forum...

Unfortunately the editor of Record Mirror, a massive PSB fan and cheer leader in the late 80's died recently. I think he was a friend of the boys. The publication stopped in 1991.
