The Trouble With Pop
Dec. 19th, 2007 10:33 amfreakytigger.livejournal.comTop radio show Freaky Trigger And The Lollards Of Pop is broadcasting a "Pop Special" tonight, entitled THE TROUBLE WITH POP. I'll be hosting, there will be contributions from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dubdobdee, katstevens, thebopkids and hopefully koganbot, and we'll be talking about genre drift, horrible people making good records, referential pop songs, as well as hunting for the Swedish Lily Allen and the Iranian Rihanna. There may even be a quiz!
It's at 7PM, on Resonance 104.4 FM if you're in the South Bank area and at www.resonancefm.com if you're not - broadcast over the internet and then podcast afterwards on www.freakytrigger.co.uk.
And here's a special plea from Ed Baxter, head of Resonance FM. Make your own minds up as to whether it's a worthwhile one.
( Help the LMC )

freakytigger.livejournal.comA double-header today - the prestigious Lifetime Achievement award, one careless owner in James Brown, and the contentious Argument of the Year award. Astute readers may notice the effects of the randomiser in these.

POP OPEN Round 3 Fight 3
Dec. 19th, 2007 04:32 pmfreakytigger.livejournal.comAfter a somewhat epic gap - a new FITE! And this will be the last until the new year so you have plenty of time to listen to the tracks - http://freakytrigger.co.uk/ft/2007/12/pop-open-week-16/ - and consider.
As before you can VOTE for either track five or six, or ABSTAIN IN FAVOUR OF one or the other, since you're not allowed to vote for a track you know. I will post regular reminders over the Yuletide season.

byebyepride and stevem78.anyone seen rihanna live recently?
Dec. 19th, 2007 06:44 pmspazhammer.livejournal.comsorry if this sort of thing isnt allowed here... (feel free to moderate my ass if its a problem)
has anyone been to see rihanna on her UK tour?
what sort of music was being played in between bands? I've just been asked to DJ her nottingham gig tomorrow night, and tbh, i'm bricking it... The most i've ever played in front of is 800 or so people at a freshers ball, so going from that to an arena full of people is going to be a bit scary!
I'm thinking obvious pop... britney, justin, sugababes, beyonce, etc, but i was wondering just how far i could push it (dolly parton/stevie wonder? rogue traders, mandy moore, TATU, robyn?)..
anyone who has seen her recently and cares to share any thoughts/advice?
(i do a monthly pop night in nottingham, MMHA! - http://poptunes.org for examples of the sort of stuff i play)
