Thursdays 9-11pm mean.....

THE REALLY GOOD ROCK SHOW on TotalRock!

So..... as mentioned in my blog Bio, I am a DJ on totalrock which is by far, one of my favourite events of my week. I host The Really Good Rock Show every thursday 9-11pm with the lovely and fantastic Katie P. As i'm sure many of you reading this blog are aware, Katie P used to work for Kerrang! magazine, had a show on Xfm, has a CRAZY knowledge in music and is generally my most favourite person to be around. We've been doing the show for over a year now and still enjoy each show with the same amount of enthusiasm as the first. If you're interested at all, why not log on the ole interweb on the time stated and join us sometime for the best we can find in rock and metal. requests? simply email studio@totalrock.com when we are online and we'll gladly give you a shout out! rock on \m/


This is me! looking very happy to be in the studio of course...


And this lovely lady is Katie P! awesome.

We recorded a little bit of our show, just a link with random banter which i will upload another time.... so look out for it very soon!

Here you go then! a couple of photos from our time at NASS....

We had a neat little set up with the 'whatever it takes' couch playing host to the many interviews we bagged over the weekend. Matt, Sophie and I interviewed bands, fmx riders, pro skaters, and bmxers:

Our interview list was as follows:

Jamie Squibb, Neil Kirby (FMX) Dan McDermott (Skater) Ben Wallace (BMX)
General Fiasco, Failsafe, Arusha Accord, Young Guns, Bowling for Soup, Exit Ten, Ghost of a Thousand and Hadouken.

Quite a wee gathering right?! i'm sure i've even left some out!

Anyway... we had an epic time, had so much fun filming and meeting so many great people, we hope to continue our little adventure at other festivals and events.. again.. i'll keep you posted on the progress but for right now enjoy the pics below! \m/


















A full reel of the photos that were taken at NASS will be available along with the full uncut interviews on our website.... coming soon!

Welcome to my brand new blogspot!


Okay everyone... this is my first EVER blog! and I want to tell you all of the brand spanking new project I am working on with IDIOM front man, Matt Sharland and music/fashion journalist Sophie Eggleton. It's a little program called 'Whatever It Takes' here's a little low down on the project:

Whatever It Takes is a behind the scenes documentary of the lives of the people who risk everything just to make their passion their day job.The program will focus on extreme artists such as; pro Freestyle motocross riders, skate boarders, BMX riders and bands of the rock/alternative genre.

Following the artist/athletes through their daily routines and to events will show the viewers what it really takes to do what they do. The show will be aimed at the young music/extreme sport fan where the scenes are merging more and more every day.

Film crew will be headed by Carl Shanahan of Pangaea Productions, an up and coming film director who has been working in the field for the past few years and has produced many music videos that air on Scuzz and Kerrang TV channels on rotation.

Hopefully viewers can understand that these people really do “Whatever it Takes”
