That's some promo for this program. He could at least had tried to hide his contempt for those who assigned him this show when he was voicing the ad.

It's a sh1t assignment though, considering all the bigwigs are allowed the day off.

Here's one punter who won't be listening to 'Music by numbers';)

2 hour show & he lives just up the road. Not too much of a hardship given the large audience listening at the time.

Last I heard he lives up in Meath?

So you'd rather listen to one of their repeats that you keep harping on about? :rolleyes:

The answer would be yes there friend, rather that listen to some punter doing what he has been doing for the last century(and it shows).

I don't pay a licence fee tto listen to someone 'going thru the motions'

If you don't fancy the gig, piss off and someone else with a bit of enthusiasm and innovation would be glad to do it.

Rubbage!!!(sic)

Ah! Ronan! Didn't know he lived in Meath...

I remember many moons ago he stuck his head in the door of TeleRents in Thomas St, where I worked at the time, and he was enquiring about the progress of his television repair. When I looked it up for him, I noticed his address was in Clonsilla or thereabouts.

I also remember seeing him from around the same time doing a regular gig on the drums in the Wexford Inn backing Pearse Webb, who was Ireland's answer to Neil Diamond at the time.

Anyway, I like the show he does, although I would only hear snatches of it now and again, even though he's inclined to over-expose the show-band era, perhaps.

Yes it was, and poorly timed at that. The continuity announcer had to intervene coming up to news at 8 a.m. and 9 a.m.
