Jagger SwackedNo idea what Swacking is, but I think I'll play some Stones tonight. So I'm 50% correct.Another live guest this week in the shape of Robb Peters, an upcoming UK hip-hop artist who has recently qualified for the National Final of the UK Live & Unsigned Competition. His performance in the Regional Final was a spectacle to behold, a blend of creativity, character and enticing unpredictability. Six Degrees of Seperation is back too! This week we go from American acoustic artist Elliot Smith to Finnish operatic metal legends Nightwish. I also have two songs about a snake I want to play.Swagger JackedLife is hard on the edge.50 cents jacking was hilarious, if you haven't seen the video click here.Tell me what you think,Lock in tonight
and of course the best music in the industry,updates and also how exactly we gonna spend our holidaysBecause the sun is shining...Its true, no one really wants to stay cooped up indoors in this weather listening to the radio. However, with the amazing LISTEN BACK feature, you can still catch the show and sunbathe during the day. With that in mind, Barny will be in full swing talking about films (Speed Racer and What Happens In Vegas), this prank call, and the GU2 Genre Battle! So whether you hear it live or you LISTEN BACK, don't miss out.Penultimate Show!Tonight show is the penultimate show, as we will not be doing one in the final week (darn exams). So make sure you tune in tonight for your fix of all things European. We have a lot of Swedish and Russian, as usual, but we're also broadening our tastes with some chilled-out tunes from Iceland. Not to mention the final choice in our eurovision favourites, after which we'll be explaining our plans for the last show, which will definately not be one to miss. Dont forget you can always listen back if you miss it!Because you do the math...Following on from the fascinating discussion about equations yesterday on the show here is another one:
(Barny + Music + The Manuscript + CopyCats + The Connection) / 1350AM GU2 = A totally unmissable show!
Join Barny from 4pm warming you up for the night ahead. And Listen Back if you miss it!The long weekend is over!The weather predictions were all wrong & the weekend was lovely, sunny and warm!! But it's over now, so back to Uni.,, revision and exams...boo! Take an hour out of revision and tune in for some top tunes, fun & frolics with me, Katy on Smack My Hits. As always I will run you through 'What's On The Box Tonight?', my piece of 'Useless Information' and 'Celebrity Birthdays'. If you want to contribute to the show in any way; say 'Good Luck' to a mate, 'Happy Birthday' to someone, or just want to let me know what you are up to get in touch during the show.Because time is coming to an end...As mankind supposedly moves ever closer to their own destruction it means there is only a finite amount of time to catch the wonder that is drivetime on GU2. So, returning today for the second Monday in a row Barny is back in residence from 4pm to spin some tunes and keep you entertained through revision. Features include the continuing GU2 Genre Battle, a fascinating Connection featuring a man stuck in a lift and other classics.
