Tom Robinson has *apalling *taste in music. One of his "features" is named after an Alanis Morrisette song.
I don't listen to morning or daytime 6music (can't stand Laverne or Lamb) but the moment i get in the door everynight it's radio on for Marc Riley followed by Gideon Coe. Can't really imagine life without them now. It's the sound of of cooking, eating and washing up!
Maconie's freak zone is excellent and Adam and Joe are always fun... although recently they've been getting on my nerves a bit with the mass of unfunny features. They're at their best when they're floundering amateruishly I think. Jarvis's new show on Sunday is good and Huey can play some great older stuff. There's a lot to like about 6music but also a lot of drivel.
I bought a DAB radio to be able to get 6 but it has undoubtedtly gone downhill in recent years. I find it weird that a station that is at pains to call itself 6MUSIC has so many shows presented by comedians with only a passing interest in music. And the 6music news is pointless and irritating. The "headlines" tend to be things like"member of indie band says something inconsequential regarding their latest album in an interview broadcast on this station this morning"... every half an hour ALL FUCKING DAY!
