Radio Active 89FM NZ Music Show Playlist: 18 May 2004broadcast: 2100-2300 NZST | TUE 18 May, 2004

Fark it was cold last night. Jules and I rocked up to Radio Active towers a bit early, and had to rely on internal warming from our coffees for the first half or so, and then cranked up the oil heater for the second half. Brrrr.

'Twas a typical show of forgotten song names, wrongly announced phone numbers and unfindable requests. One day I'll be sure to make a note of the studio phone number before trying to announce it on air for a giveaway: "OK, to win the prize, call us now on 801...um...80?..um...mumble, mutter..." Luckily, our punters are more clued up as the numbers than we are, so we still managed to give the stuff away.

One good thing about this week was the massive pile of new NZ releases and demos we got given to sample upon our arrival. Hooray for NZ music month - we managed to fill up well over half our show with brand spanking new songs, some from bands even I hadn't heard about. Particular faves were the new ones from Olmecha Supreme, Bannerman and Drekster. Here's the whole playlist...
