Who's the promoter for the AA gig, Ray?

Hey Passenger,
It's MCD.

scudzilla · 17-02-2014 10:48pm

Pretty shit post just on Metal Notes Facebook page

It is with a heavy heart that i have to confirm that Metal Notes will cease on March 10th. There has been an enormous restucturing within Phantom and almost all shows have been cancelled.
The last 17 years have been a blast and i want to thank you all for your support during this time.
Keep it Metal !
Razor .

Seems Phantom is on the way out, hope it works out well for the DJ's

Passenger · 18-02-2014 12:03am

Wow! 17 years. Usually checked out the show if I was at home and Ray always had a fairly eclectic playlist. Exposure given to music that wouldn't get much airplay on other stations.

Hopefully you'll get a similar gig on another station/time slot, Ray.

cro mags · 18-02-2014 12:52pm

WTF !!
I just checked out his FB page and it seems Phantom is likely to stop and could go under a new name.
This is madness.
Surely another station will pick up metal notes ?!?
Sorry to hear the news razor.
And 17 years .. That's incredible.

cro mags · 22-02-2015 5:32pm

seen some messages on the FB page. is it coming back on air ? on the phantom replacement station ?

There is some potentially good news, I'll leave it to ray to post it here when he sees fit.

cro mags · 02-04-2015 1:00pm

seen the deadly news on the FB.
great to see the show back on air in a few weeks.

Passenger · 02-04-2015 8:33pm

On 2XM apparently. Would've assumed TXFM would've relaunched it given the relationship with Phantom. Will it be the same format? An expanded format incorporating band interviews and studio sessions promoting local and international Metal would be a welcome addition. Overall, well done for getting some more Metal back on the airwaves.
