    Hello all,

    My name is Adam, I’m the DJ at Telfords on Friday nights.

    I have re-launched the myspace for Friday nights.

    http://myspace.com/petsoundsuk

    This has all of the playlists for Friday nights going back to October 2007.

    And — perhaps more importantly — is the place to leave any requests you might have for Friday nights.

    If there is something [good!] that you want to hear on a Friday night, leave a comment on the myspace page the day before [at the latest] and I will do my best to include it [have a look through the old playlists to see what I play on Fridays].

    Please note that making a request won’t guarantee that the track gets played, or when it gets played. I will - however - do my best to accommodate you.

    This Friday night we are joined by the prodigiously talented Andy Hickie & His Merry Maidens.

    Expect heartbreaking melodies and songs of great yearning and joy, coloured in shades of Bob Dylan, The Band, Wilco and Neil Young, from a band that includes members of Camera, the Roseville Band and Mother of Six. Andy was recently invited to play at this year’s Glastonbury after getting through to the the last two at the annual Pilton Village Festival.

    Before and after the band expect an eclectic trawl through the most inspirational music of the last 50 years, including brand new tracks from Beck, Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, The Hold Steady and Pop Levi.

    Oh, yeah… it’s my birthday too! [on the Saturday]

    All contributions to the Birthday Drinking Fund will be very gratefully received!

    Adam
