I enjoy R&M in the afternoon, gutted that they are being replaced by Keaveny...I find him to be painfully unfunny.

I’m not a big fan of Laverne or Mary Ann Hobbs. I quite like Keaveny but I will really miss R&M - their show is entertaining, enjoyable and the music is great.0 -

She really isn't. Without her connections, she'd probably be on local radio. Sara Cox would have been a better choice than her, been filling in for holiday cover for years and never did anything wrong....
Anyway, this is the 6Music thread - we're all hip, cool and edgy here so we don't listen to mainstream BBC Radio 2.

Radcliffe and Maconie are great but I believe Mark is quite ill now.
I think Cerys prepares for her shows by typing "coolest most obscure hipster playlist" into Google.... I don't mind her as a presenter most of the time, but the music is not for me. Marc Riley is there for a specific task for a specific audience (much like Cerys really), but I don't really listen to him to be honest.
RadMac are one of the best radio co-presenters I've heard and are completely wasted in their new slot. Thankfully, there is a playback option and I would imagine that this how most people will listen to them from now on. Unfortunately, that is true about Mark but hopefully he will pull through and come back to us soon fit as a fiddle with a clean bill of health. 0 -

With regards to Mark Radcliffe, think he's already presenting his folk show on maybe BBC4?
He's back with Stuart in February. Rang in the first day of new RADMAC on Saturday gone.0 -

His folk show is on BBC Radio 2, can be quite good sometimes, although sometimes it's just really dreary English folk...
Delighted to hear that he's back on air soon! I think he's a great presenter, really knowledge with a good taste in music and the sort of fella you'd love to go for a pint with as he'd have loads of great tales that he could never tell on air!Steve Lamacq is the worst thing about BBC 6 Music, that Roundtable hour long slot sounds like local radio.
I miss Keavney in the morning, but suspect it might just be Stockholm Syndrome...He is painfully, embarrassingly stuck in the 90s
Wouldn't be a great fan of Steve Lamacq, very hit and miss. The roundtable can be a good way of keeping up with new releases though. Sometimes, it's like they've put on a recording of a show from 1994, but some of us love some of the indie music that was made in 1994...ghostdancer wrote: »that's just the general 6Music playlist though, isn't it? extremely repetitive and predictable. she probably can't really get away with playing her weekend stuff now that she's catering to the daytime lot.
her weekend shows had great music, as did her XFM and Radio1 shows.
I think it's more to do with the type of music assigned to that mid-morning slot to be honest, very dance/synth commercial with the few obscure tunes of that genre thrown in. I'd agree that the BBC6 playlist in general though is changing from what is used to, and not for the better...facehugger99 wrote: »I think Keaveney really suited the breakfast show. His deadpan, half-asleep delivery suited my mood that time of the morning. I don't really get to listen to the radio most weekday afternoons so I haven't heard his new show yet at all.
Lauren Laverne I can take or leave, her breakfast show isn't terrible by any means. I'm sure it will grow on me eventually.
Radcliffe and Maconie - don't share the love that most people seem to have for them. They're only ok IMO.
As long as Iggy is still on Friday evening, Huey is on a Saturday, Guy does a finest hour on a Sunday, I'm happy enough.
I used to like Keaveney on the breakfast show and his style really suited it. However, the playlist over the last year or so was changing and I found myself not really liking a lot of it. It's a lot different on his new afternoon show and I'm really enjoying it.
Laverne is getting a big thumbs down from me to be honest, it's a terrible show so far.
What's not to love about RadMac??? :eek: They're excellent!
Huey is great alright, but he went down a lot in my estimation the day they were doing a NYC theme show. Listeners were sending in suggestions and requests for tunes and he told them to STFU as nobody knew more about NYC than him! He apologised after the next track though, must have got a word in his ear from a producer.... Still listen to him though as it's a great show.
Guy Garvey is great too, very eclectic playlist and so suited to presenting on radio - especially a show like this.0 -
