    That's usually a recommendation or very good marketing



    It's not on the wiki page of songs banned by the Beeb though.

    Parachute was'nt banned by the BBC, it was restricted in its air play from main stream broadcast shows around morning and drive time slots and only played on late evening/night, alternative shows such as John Peels ....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,326 ✭✭✭✭drunkmonkey


    Restricted on release as was dirrrty and banned during the gulf war as well.

    Parachute is a French letter, that was the dirty part. Banned during Gulf war as it literally meant parachute.

    A few weeks back I had to explain to a female colleague in her mid 30s what a French letter was when I pissed myself laughing when she sent me a job request e-mail entitled "client-name French letters"

    Looking over the artists schedules as far as i'm concerned the only "headline" that looks anywhere near set in stone is NGHFB, he's listed as playing gigs elsewhere on Friday and Sunday, so provided these are correct it's highly likely he'll play Saturday.

    The rest are completely open and don't have conflicting gigs elsewhere that would restrict them to a certain night.

    This would also be what I would like to see. Todd Terje is another big one I'm looking forward to seeing, he has been announced for Ministry of Sound in London on the Sat so he will be Friday or Sunday.
