Stick your requests in here, otherwise I can't guarantee I'll have the song on the night. - I need to lug all my stuff from Manchester, y'know.

[edit] Oh, and JohnK and I are planning our sets together in one big "Music Pool", so anything you reckon would be better for him to play can go in here as well if you like.

kisses!

I'm playing commerical indie, motown, soul, rnb and pop. A whole mixed bag of nice loveliness, though i'll be playing some less recognisable stuff towards the begininning of the evening. So come early for happy tunes.

Rage Against the Machine- Killing in the name of
Nirvana- Lithium
Muse- Plug in Baby

Also things wouldnt be the same without a bit of Girls Aloud + Britney!!

I reckon you'd really enjoy Poptastic in Manchester, the Indie room there most often plays all of those!
Pete i'll email you a list of songs that you HAVE to play!!

OK cheers Richard!

Just a polite note as well though, guys (everyone), as much as John & I will take requests into account all we can, remember what the word "request" means - to ask (politely), and I'm sure you wouldn't want us to be ordered about too much without being able to put our own thought into the DJing anyway - we need to try & make it all work, cover a few bases, make everyone happy etc etc blah blah.

What I'm saying is, please don't cry if your song doesn't get played!

To be fair, I'll be happy as long as at some point during the night someone plays a wee bit of Kelly Clarkson.

But other than that, I trust John's music taste, because he likes Tori Amos. And I always love a bit of the cheesey pop.

O.B.V they will be rubbish as we are gonna blow your minds y'all!

oooh, very exciting! Grr!

I have lots of cool ideas:

Eve and Gwen
Salt n Peppa Feat. En Vogue
James Brown
Diana Ross
Stevie Wonder
The Killers
Jet
M.I.A
Shampoo
Martha and the Muffins
Avril Lavigne
Princess SUperstar
Kelis (like Old Skool Kelis though)
The Rolling Stones
All Saints
Mary J Blige
Scissor Sisters
Kelly Clarkson
Britney
Blondie
David Bowie
Patti Smith
Goldfrapp
Jamelia
Blur
The Strokes
Tori Amos
PJ Harvey
The Rolling Stones
Ace of Base
Corona
Madge
Bjork
Belle & Sebastian
The Arcade Fire
We Are Scientists
The Sugababes
Kylie
Elton John Feat. KD Lang (for Emily!)
Le Tirge
Alanis Morrisette
Mariah
Missy Elliot
Spice Girls
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Ash
The Zutons
The White Stripes
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Girls Aloud

Basically, I'm bringing piles of CDs and me and Pete are gonna just go for it!!

Though I have a really cool set of songs to play somewhere in the middle.

And I guess I'll be on the decks nearer the start as I'll be playing the more alternative stuff, though there will be some slipped in later on.

There was this song in this programme that I want to play too. It was really good. But I can't remember what programme or what song.

Damn.

When I was in The Cockpit on Monday, they played The Star Spangled Banner as Fuck-Off music. It definitely did the job!

Hmmm, I'd love it if the exalted DJ's could look at these lovely tracks and consider playing one or two...

I'm a fan of the Killers remix, but that's just me - I'm guessing it's pretty applicable for the general audience of the event...

World's Best Cheesy Tracks of Joy

Much love! Thanks!
xx

There's also a Tiesto mix, but I don't really like it...

I know this might be a bit of a random one... but Trash*Palace - Bad Girl is a really good party tune.

Oh let's face it Richard they actually made the song much better - at least you can imagine that Sugababes would actually look good on the dancefloor!
And that vocoder rules.

And it's Sugababes.

...I'll ring you in a bit about time of arrival.

I found a belt on the floor, and forgot to hand it in last night.

Is anyone beltless?
