They called back!!!!

I have to be at the roundhouse at 6pm tonight (line manager has okay-ed me leaving early as I need a shower and to do make up and hair - I got up, dressed and out of the house in 10 minutes this morning and do NOT look my best...) for the Brits 2008 Launch Party. I don't get a spare ticket for it, so it's just me and the other chap, Brian. I need to call him in a bit to arrange meeting up.

I have a phone number to call to leave a voicemail tonight whilst at the gig, and I have to be at the XFM studio (it's just occurred to me I have no idea where that is) for 9.15 tomorrow, so that's when you need to listen, should you wish to listen to me making a twat of myself AGAIN on XFM.

My history of making a twat of myself on XFM is:

1 - Lauren Laverne's breakfast show. I win tickets to see The Feeling on Indie Band Bingo by knowing that MMM Bop was recorded by Hanson. I got a question about Oasis and one about Snow Patrol wrong.

2 - Marsha (?). I win the new Maximo Park album by telling the radio listeners about my 9 hour stint at the barriers at the Reading Festival - no food, no water, no going to the toilet, just so I could be at the front for Maximo Park. It was bloody worth it too.

3 - this.

Can I embarrass myself EVEN FURTHER? You'll have to listen to find out...

holy jebus on toast missus!

That is a slice of awesome right there, well done!

I won't be able to record it, I'll be there in the studios!

I think you can stream old shows though, someone mentioned that at the time of the We Love Stoke Newington incident. I was hoping it wasn't true, as I didn't want anyone to hear that.

Well if anyone can record it, link it for meeeee!!


( I promise not to play it to the entire calling floor)

I was going to say I knew where the Xfm studios were because I'd been there, but then remembered it was in a dream. Anyway in the dream they were on Upper Street, on the right hand side of the road about 3/4 of the way towards Highbury Corner, so try there.

It would be Very Useful Indeed if they really were there, as that would be between work and home. I am pretty sure it's in Leicester Square though.

They should move, just for my convenience.

If I am not mistaken, XFM is on the Captial Radio building in Leicester Square.

Sounds about right! I shall google for it.

Good luck and let me know if we will be able to listen again so I can hear you! :-)

Are they ok about it at work? You is going to be fit for NOTHING this week?!
Can't get it on the net - tried the link and it comes up with an error message. booo. Record it for posterity anyway!

[identity profile] emmelinemay.livejournal.com 2008-01-14 12:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Boo :(

I can't record off the radio, I don't know how! Perhaps someone else om my friends list will have the technology and/or know how to record it and put it online?

man, now *there's* a reason for me to actually make it into work on time tomorrow..... :)

So when I come on the radio, you can say 'hear that horribly hungover girl there? the one that got to bed at 3am and has to go straight to work after this? I know her!'

Good luck! Xfm's towards the South of the Charing Cross Road side of Leicester Square, tho can't exactly remember where the entrance is.

[identity profile] medusa-nw.livejournal.com 2008-01-14 12:42 pm (UTC)(link)
the X-FM studio is by Leicester Square.

I heard that last one and suspected it to be you having seen in the loos that you live there and thinking there can't be THAT many Emmelines around :D

I have a skill for it, I'm sure I won't even need to try.
