Like a show, wish there were more playing that sort of thing? Then have a look at our schedule. See your favourite show? Same colour = Same genre. It really is as simple as that.
Not sure what show does what? Then go to our On-Air section above and select 'Shows By Genre'.
We now have eight types of show, from our specialist Dance, Urban, Rock and Indie shows, to our mainstream Primetime, Daytime and Late Night shows. We've even got an Everything Else category for those that don't quite fit the mould.

Congratulations to James Alexander who took the Gold Award for Best Interview at the Student Radio Awards in London on Thursday Night.
His interview with Sue Doughty, the Liberal Democrat candidate for Guildford at this year's general election, the day after she lost to Conservative MP Anne Milton beat off fierce competition, including Andy Vale's interview with Chesney Hawkes, which also made the shortlist in this competition.
Richard Blackburn also received a nomination in the Best Newcomer category.

We're all off revising, visiting family and eating too much chocolate (we are students as well!), so GU2 is off air for a few weeks.
We're also making things just that little bit shinier around the place as well. But don't worry we'll be back before you know it.

So our summer schedule is now over. We apologise for any problems you've had navigating the website or listening to our illustrious shows during this time. Please rest assured that the people responsible for these short-comings have been made to sustain mild peril as a consequence.
We can even go one better, and tell you that our new semester schedule begins today (Sept 27) at 10am, with a Freshers' Moving-In Special with Phill Nathan, Matt Clifford and Sarah Horsley, before the indelible Will & Tintin return with their Sunday Night Manifesto at 7pm.
Add to the fact that we will be in the Ikea-Showroom-cum-Wagamama-Restaurant-cum-Industrial-Zone-from-the-Crystal-Maze that is The Living Room (née HRB) on both Saturday (free!) and Sunday (along with Chesney Hawkes), means that whether it's your first night out ever in Guildford, or first night out in what seems like forever in Guildford, GU2 is here for you, every step of the way, like fluffy slippers, just without the washing label digging into your foot.

With interviews and live performances from artists of all shapes, sizes and genres to come over the summer, hold on tight, this coaster's gonna roll all summer long.

Also, remember that if you want a swanky GU2 hoody then get down to the bookshop on campus to purchase something that should see you safely through your time at Surrey!Posted on Fri 14th Mar 2008 at 3:09pm
GU2 hoodies are now on sale in the bookshop for a mere £20. So, if you want a classy, comfortable hoody then get down there soon because there are only a limited number available. They come in four different sizes and can go with anything. A fashion guru was overheard saying, "GU2 hoodies are gonna be the next big thing, bigger than the government's debt levels, bigger than the london eye, bigger than the queue for Vengaboys." Make sure you get yours now!Posted on Wed 27th Feb 2008 at 4:53pm
