Absolutely class! Time for a serious party (tonight in the Village from 7).

Thanks to all for their help and support. Yay!

Wow!

 

[Latex lizzie]

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD I'M SO FRIGGIN HAPPY!!!

The main reason for my happiness is the fact that it's a victory for Simon and the people who have waited for this day for about 14 years. Some thing tells me this is the bast day of his life. Anyone who knows him will be just as happy as me and will be fully aware of how much he deserves it.

 

[Evil Lizzie]

thats good, but im skeptical. Ever flick stations on the radio? - its the same bunch of chart crap on every station, Inane nattering or diddly eye trad crap. so its good to see phantome finally get their broadcasting licence. but... they have (in my books anyhoo) taken a serious nose dive in quality over the past few years with its horizons narrowing somwhat. which is a pity.

hopefully this new foung legitimacy will allow them more scope for a broader range of ALTERNATIVE music. Also hope they dont get greedy for the monkey and start playing the lois walshe endorsed bollocks that pollutes the airwaves in this plastic age of fake music.

 

[roxy]

Yes, but now is not the time.

 

[Ex-User (250)]

this sounds like it has the potential to be good. however, coming from dublin, i am sceptical. who backs phatom and where do their interests lie etc...

 

[Tombo]

Bloody brilliant! Congratulations. Use the force.

 

[flygirl]

Can only be a good thing....well deserved guys.

 

[Anthony]

That's great news. Well done.

in almost a year we'll have an dedicated alternative station.
loads of harvey norman ads too probably, but there might be a bit of the aul indie in there too.
fair play.

 

[Anthony]

next august! holy crap!
That's like getting and easter egg for christmas.

 

[czar]

if people like simon remain with a good handle on the programming, it'll stay a great station

fair fucks to those involved all the way, what an achievement! always been good with airplay for the cork bands (and great deals on ads!) . . . good for them .|..|

 

[avernus]
