One year ago today, Ireland went into lockdown (for 2 weeks).  A year on and a cornucopia of lockdown levels later, we’re still locked down.  So, the theme for tonight’s show is the anniversary of the lockdown and we all had a different take on it.  For Byrneos, the tunes are about waiting and feelings …

Tonight the four regulars are joined by none other than young Crispo, drummer in roughly 52% of all punk bands that Ireland and Northern Ireland have ever produced.  As always, there’s lots of chats and a shedload of crackin’ punk tunes. Tune in to hear: Pink Turds in Space Health Hazard Rotura Sacrilege Adolescents The …

  Another Zoom, another 37 tunes, another 4 bags of cans, another few laughs.  Tune in for the Friday Night Club DJ’s rocking and chattin’ about rocking.  This one is a bit more reasonable at just under 2 hours, but there’s still plenty of a bangers. Tune in for:  Sick Urge, Cuir, The B-52’s, Chelsea, …

  This week we’ve got all 5 members of Grit, picking tunes and talking marbles. Once again, the show is quite long with 50 some odd tunes and the chats getting more farcical as the night goes on.  Thanks to Clodagh and Eric for joining us this week.  Tune in for (in this order!): Grit …

  Channeling tunes and chats into a virtual lockdown session.   The Friday Night Crew Presents: Saturday Night Tunes includes four Dudes, more French punk than you could swing a massive block of brie at and enough cans to tranquilise a horse.  It’s nearly three hours of punk tunes from around the world amid declining vocal …

I took my first steps into Digital Radio ten years ago.  My mate Gaz and I started an online show in 2010 in his spare room because we wanted to drink cans all night and we had the technology at hand to shout into a microphone and play tunes where people shouted back.  Gaz quickly …

  This week’s show is the penultimate Distraction Radio.  I’ve got enough 7 Inches for one more show after this and then that’s it.  This week kicks off as every show should start – with 5 back to back Damned tunes.  Then its on to R’s and S’s (even though they are well out of …

New week, new show, back to work, let’s go!! Obviously math isn’t my strong point cuz you’re getting 20 Seven Inches this week instead of the usual 19.  ( I only noticed when I laid them out for the pic) .  Loads of punk this week and only a skip or two.  Tune in for: …

I started Distraction Radio (playing all of my vinyl in alphabetical order, 19 albums at a time) to keep me distracted in the depths of the lockdown.  I wondered at the time if I would get through the whole record collection before I went back to work (and I hoped things would return to normal …

This week I got a bit carried away and accidentally played 20 Seven Inches instead of the usual 19 (it would have been 21 if my copy of Madonna’s Get Into the Groove would have played without skipping all over the gaff).  There are a few splits and comps in the bunch so you, the …

  New Week, New Show, 19 more Seven Inches, let’s go.  This week the record player isn’t messin too much so any records that sound lo-fi were recorded that way! Tune in for: Fag Enablerz Faith No More The Fall-Outs Flathead Fireballs of Freedom   Fireballs of Freedom Firehose Flagpolers Desolation Sound (from the Flagpolers …

New Week, New Show, loads more 7 Inches, Let’s go. This week has been a labour of love.  I recorded the whole show only to realise there was a problem with the needle and the audio quality was not up to spec.  (I am aware of the feedback whine that comes when the music is …
