The Paranoid Squirrel ep 907

The Paranoid Squirrel ep 906

Acweorna! This week’s episode was pre-recorded piecemeal due to work commitments that sadly prevented me attending this years, and apparently final, Vive Le Rock Awards. However, I did manage to get to see The Damned down in Southend on the 2^nd date of their current UK tour. If they play within a drivable distance of you; Go! You will not be disappointed. I play a hand full of “Classics”, modern and past. New songs are plentiful and of course “Covers Corner” is featured. I’m pretty confident that no other Radio Show would play both Shakin Stevens and The Hip Priests on the same show, let alone right after each other.

The Paranoid Squirrel ep 905

Acweorna! It’s April 1^st but this week’s show is no joke, even if Barton and Fenny try to “improve” it. After 40 minutes I’d had enough. There are some great bands, as you hopefully would expect, a couple are new to me but I took a chance (at the High School Dance) and I’m glad I did. I throw in some classics like Demolition 23 and The New Christs and make sure “Covers Corner” doesn’t disappoint.
