IC Radio Invades Facebook
by Matt Allinson 27 Mar '09

27 Mar '09

Hello everyone I have set up a public profile for us on facebook. Search "IC Radio" in the pane on the right hand side and it should be the first thing that appears. At the moment, it looks a little sad and lonely as it has 1 wall post and 3 friends, no pictures and no videos. Please, please help us out by firstly becoming a fan, secondly uploading the photos and videos you have from fun times in the studio. The plan is I'm gonna try and post updates on it at least twice a day. One at lunchtime saying what the shows between 12 and 5 are, and then one later in the afternoon to say what the shows in the evening are. That is the bare minimum, I actually plan on posting an update before EVERY show starts, so everyone knows when and what to listen to. However this is a bit pointless if we don't have a large portion of the student body as our friend, so PLEASE spam the bejesus out of everyone you know to become a fan. Please get in touch if you have any ideas/ I have made a terrible spelling error. Lots of Love Matt x Promotions and Publicity.

Flagship Show and Parlotones
by Fowler, Daniel 25 Mar '09

25 Mar '09

Morning guys Just a quick reminder about our live session this lunchtime from 1pm in the AQUARIUM (the shared studio next to ICRADIO). The band is called Parlotones, they are good. We also have guestlist places for their gig tonight at Indigo O2, so far I have only had two names asking for a place (Roasty and Mike Robinson). This is all no strings attached, but if you fancy doing a review or something while you'e there then that is even better! I'll be submitting the guestlist in the next hour so email me quickly if you want a spot! Finally the FLAGSHIP SHOW. Last one of the term, we're hoping to get as many people down as possible to have fun on the air. We'll try and get it pumping out in the union and everything. Happy days. Dan

The last Flagship Show of the term
by Fowler, Daniel 23 Mar '09

23 Mar '09

Hey guys I'm sure you all know about the Flagship Show now. It's the weekly radio show which is presented and produced by us all as a community, ie anyone who wants to can get involved. Crazily enough this term has already come to an end and so we only have one FSS left but let's make it a good one! Each week we try to have a live session in the show (although sometimes these have to be pre-recorded during the week due to artist not being able to get down for the show etc). The session this week is with a band called The Parlotones - http://www.myspace.com/theparlotones - an indie band from South Africa. We're going to be holding the session at around 1.15 on Wednesday as they are playing at the O2 arena in the night and need to get over there to soundcheck. The more people that want to come watch the session the merrier! The Parlotones are supportign Starsailor at the O2 on Wednesday night and I've been told we can get a few Guestlist places if anyone is interested... Give me an email :) Cheers Dan

Greg James At IC Radio
by Alam, Roushan 19 Mar '09

19 Mar '09

Hi All First of all I would like to thank those of you who attended the BBC Broadcasting House tour and hope that everyone had a good time. Second - a quick reminder about tonight's AGM - I think quite a boring title for what is usually an eventful night of biscuits, beer, music and drunken banter. Come down from 7pm. Finally, the actual point of this email. On Tuesday 24th March Greg James will be coming to visit IC Radio for a chat/Q&A/mingle with our presenters and technical/production staff. For those of you who don't know who he is: Greg James was on student radio two years ago at Uni Of East Anglia - he went on to win "Best Male" at the student radio awards before being signed up by BBC Radio 1. He currently presents early breakfast and regularly covers for Scott Mills, Vernon Kay and even Chris Moyles during the christmas season. He also currently sits on the final round judging panel for the student radio awards and therefore is someone of knowledgable experience for those of you who have an eye on a career in broadcasting or even just a student radio award. I'm not yet sure how many people will be able to attend this event but I imagine it will be in the region of 10-15. If you would like to come please send me an email with "Greg James" as the subject title. It will kick off around 6pm and go on for an hour or so, but I imagine that you'll be able to leave early if you want. Hare Krishna. Roushan
