    John mentioned that it had been a while since he was presenting shows on RTE radio at that time of night and he referenced his stints on overnight 2FM

    I heard some of his show the last two nights. One of the songs I happened to hear last night was She's Lost Control by Joy Division. That's great to hear on the radio.

    I heard the first 10 or 15 minutes of the show last night. It was great to hear My Way by Sid Vicious - that's one that is not played much on radio at all!

    Is This It by The Strokes was the featured album last night..... How is that album 20 years old?? (many others texting in were thinking the same!)

    Jesus that album accompanied some good times for me, it came out around junior cert time and was an ever present thru all my teenage years, underage partying and general messing!! Great memories!

    I find Rory Gallagher a bit hit and miss, but Moonchild is a brilliant song.

    Have to say it's a great playlist tonight.

    The classic line up of Dave, David, Marty and Nick. Nick Menza, a beast of a drummer.

    Menza was a killer drummer, caught them in the SFX. He was playing a Tama Mirage. Their last two drummers just don’t fit, snare is tuned way too high, giving it a weak sound.

    Gar and Menza gave them their legendary sound.

    I largely agree with that. Although, he did make one mistake last night. He played Paranoid by Black Sabbath to mark the anniversary of the release of their self-titled debut album. The problem is that Paranoid is from their second album also called Paranoid! I sent in a text and to be fair he acknowledged it.

    That said, John is very knowledgeable about rock music in general.
