Woo Gary Crowley

Woo Gary Crowley
On your radio.
(Wonder how that comes out on the topic summary?)
We are obviously big Gid fans on this site but when we hear the Crowman with his enthusiasm we know we have a worthy stand-in.
Listening to Gary reminiscing last night while also playing new stuff I was moved to send him this:
Gary,
Listening to you talking about your memories of music being central to your life from being a young bloke at school, I realised how lucky we are to have DJs like you.
As for me, I fear that "If my memory serves me well" has become more of a mantra from everyday life rather than a song by Siouxsie... (or Dylan!)
Don't ever lose your enthusiasm!
Tolhurst
(NB Gary's covering for Nemone this afternoon!)

I have to answer my own topic as I literally lolled out loud.
I'm not called tolhurst for nothing!
Tolhurst - I like Gary as well (even though he does humm and ahh) - his enthusiasm and knowledge shines out. He's always a great stand-in.
I dunno - one day back and Gids sloping off again.......
How often has the Crowman been on the last couple of days? Twice for Gid, once for Nemone!
He is still enthusiastic and what's more he doesn't get mixed up which show he's on! He's a true professional and no mistake!
But no-one could keep that up...
Here's a sneak preview of the upcoming programming on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Crow Music:
Till 7: Crow Hawkins
7-10: Shaun W Crowley
10-1: George Crow
1-4: Gary Nemone (Crowley in a wig)
4-7: Steve Crowley gets his mac
7-9: Mark Crowley
Mind you, I'm sorry to hear that Gid is poorly. Gid, you should have known that that "spicy mushroom cider" was a bad idea!
Come back tonight, otherwise you may need a sicknote! (Besides, we can't miss our trouser news)
Will be back tonight. A little weak but that's to be expected at my age and with trouser news pending.
It was something that is going round. Or something else that's going round. Don't say I didn't warn you.
hooray!
Welcome back Gid - you've been missed!
Is the first track of the evening going to be
Hanson - Something Going Round.....
Sorry
It was something that is going round. Or something else that's going round. Don't say I didn't warn you.Β
I drove along the M25 and the M1 today.
The M25 *was* strangely congested - that's what you get for going round.
Driving in a straight line, on the other hand, seems healthier...
Good news!
The Crowman is doing Thursday's Round Table...

You lolled out loud? A lolol then?

If you literally lol out loud it's a llolol...
and that was Chris Hawkins...
I knew I wasn't going mad! At last year's Gid-fest, I mentioned to Gid that I remember watching Gary Crowley present a BMX show on ITV when I was a wee lad, (usually on during the summer holidays I think).
After some extensive(ish) research at the time, I sadly came up with nothing and his page on Wikipedia didn't mention anything of the sort.
Although it was a year ago, this dim recollection came back to me thanks to Gary sitting in for Gid this week and of course Gid-fest at the weekend, so I searched again. All I can say is God bless the internet. My vague, fading recollection was thankfully resurrected when I had it confirmed that he used to present "BMX Beat".
I'm not sure anyone else in the world will be remotely interested in this fact but it had been bugging me so much that when I discovered the answer, I just had to mention it.

Nice to hear 'super-sub' Crowman (as he seems to be known now ) back, safely keeping the dials and seat warm for Gideons return.
Talk about Gideon's show and Freak Zone on the 6 Music Message boards.
