Biography:
When I was in the third year of secondary school, I was told by a "cool" fourth former that if I liked all that strange music stuff then I should listen to John Peel. This was in the autumn of 1980, so I'd have been thirteen. I also remember Peel saying in an interview that if he could get listeners attention before they were sixteen then he'd have a chance of opening their minds to the range of music that was available should they care to look. This he did with me, and my show on Dandelion Radio is an attempt to continue that noble tradition. I've never done anything vaguely DJ-like before this year, although I've always been doing something with music, mainly being in bands that get to the demo-tape stage and then split up or hibernate for decades at a time. I'm really excited to be doing this, and keen to hear what you think of it.
