u r a little fat…

I’m on my way to 80 subscribers on my you tube channel which is a bit of a daymaker. I posted one of my original songs in response to a video of Diana Vickers of the X Factor (who is seriously popular on youtube it seems!) and am getting more hits than ever on one of [...]

On the set of IZM

  So we managed to shoot a segment for IZM this saturday which was fun but exhausting! Having to get up at 6am and being on set before 8am was tiring, especially as we were filming for over 12 hours! I managed to get home for midnight though! Check out the bbc web mini series [...]

Radio rankings

So burnfm did not recieve any nominations for this year’s SRA awards. Looking at the list the front runners seem to be URN (nottingham) and Smoke (westminister?) Part of the reason for this is money. Last year we had to go off air after three weeks because we hadn’t the money for air conditioning.  I [...]
