I missed yesterday's but I've listened today. I must admit I think I'm going to struggle with the music. I prefer the stuff they played on R2, I think I might find some of the 6 music a bit too challenging, and I'm no lame pop fan. I'm glad the show's format is very similar, but I fear for me it just won't translate to daytime listening. Sad

Still, early days. I tried the listen again feature yesterday and it said it wasn't available due to some copyright thing. Confused That's bad news for me.

I'm gutted that I was out of the office and away from home all yesterday and today so I've not listened yet!!!!

Can't believe it- I nearly considered taking half a days leave to listen to the first show but there was some planning I had to do. (I know I know - there's the iPlayer!!)

I was hoping to carry on Radcliffe and Maconie-ing in bed with a glass of wine and MN on my laptop. Sad It's the end of an era for me.

Trying to work out how to still listen to Jezza and R&M each afternoon is stressing me. Grin

Is it? I tried very soon after it had finished so perhaps it was just too soon to be played back, but it came up with a message saying 'some items are not available to listen again due to copyright blah blah.'

Phew! Panic over.

I'm really enjoying having them on 6, means I can listen to them in the afternoon and Marc / Gid in the evenings.

Contrary to Fellatio, I'd hoped that they'd be able to impose their own choices on the music a bit more-for me, it's an improvement on the radio 2 music selection , but they are still having to comply far too rigidly with the playlist and database (Blondie song of the day, anyone? Fifteenth helping of Foo Fighters?). Not their fault though, it was apparently in the tender that they'd get one free choice per hour. And I think they are under orders not to scare off any R2 listeners they've brought over. I'd like to hear a bit more challenge in the music; Mark and Stuart certainly know their stuff.
