Title: Doing a live session on the radio tonight
Post by: Johnny Robbo on September 02, 2017, 05:12:44 AM
Hi chaps!

I've been asked to go in and do a live session on the BBC tonight for BBC Tees, my local station. The show is 8-10pm UK time. Haven't a clue what they want me to do, whether I'll be allowed to use backer or not (It's going to be a struggle if I'm not!).

Anyway, here's a link to listen

Wish me luck! :)

Good luck!

They do, but I don't know if it's available outside the UK. I'll put the link up to the "listen again" service tomorrow & I'm sure there'll be a way around any block... Anything like that, I use the Opera browser in "turbo" mode so Jackie can see stuff from Canada & it usually works.

Just getting my stuff organised to head out. Pretty excited!

Well done John.

Spent over 6 hours today capturing the audio to a wav file then editing it from 2 hours down to 41:37 and adding it to the Songcrafters on the Radio jukebox.

Thanks to Pete C for getting Songcrafters a mention.  :)

Thanks 64! I really appreciate the work you've put into this, mate. Weirdly, the guitar seems out of sync with the backers for some reason... I was using an amp which was mic'd up & playing along with the backers which were on the stations playout system... I think there must have been some kind of delay between the mic feed & the mp3 playback on the broadcast. It was fun though & Bob (the host) is a great guy.

Thanks for all the support on this, guys & thanks for listening!
