John Peel again

[ramtops]

yes, I know there's been so much on LJ about him, but I can't resist this last quote, by Caitlin Moran, in an article in the Times

"Personally, I like the idea of new bands laying their debut singles outside Broadcasting House, in the manner of a floral tribute. The chances are, no one else will play them now. It would be a fittingly morose sight to see them stretching, silent, down Regent Street."

and she's right - there isn't anyone else, and if there were, the BBC wouldn't employ them. Those days are gone.
