RTE 2fm have instructed Rick O’Shea and Nikki Hayes to drop all non-music items from their shows and simply introduce the songs. Rick’s an acquaintance and fellow blogger, and has built up a huge following through the interplay of his show, his blog, his twittering etc. Now RTE has effectively cut off his tongue, his brain and his balls by reducing him to reading the cover of the CD on air, and there’s now one researcher between 3 shows.
I think it sucks. I’ve set up a Facebook group which is up to 70 members tonight. If you’re a fan of Rick or Nikki why not join and show your creepy fanness. And yes I do know there are worse things going on in the world but I don’t think Hamas or Israel are too bothered about Facebook groups.
