Jan 24th

Hey everyone it's Grace here.  Yes I have sobered up thankyou.

I'm not that much of a lightweight it's just that I live in canterbury and can't face the drive to Gillingham in the dark and rain when I'm not that mentally steady!

So, a new week and all that.  I've gone and got Adele's new album 21 today (actually Mark boyf bought it for me thank you Mark boyf).  So, no doubt, I will be force feeding some tracks from there on the show tonight. 

We will also play some Tyrannosaurus Alan, a local Medway band, who I have been chatting to this week and should be coming to play live on the show in a few weeks time.

My weekly moan is that Theatre Royal and the ever lovely Archie Wah Wahs are playing in Chatham on Friday 4th Feb night (command house), at the same time as Lupen Crook play the Nags Head Rochester.  Would do we do about this?

These lot need to start communicating more.

So, listen in tonight for more fun and frolics and I promise I will try harder.

Laters potatas!

January 17th - Jamilia Sooh

Hello,

Right then, this is the first blog from Fizzers Radio Show although its not the first one we have created. The problem being that well I'm not really that good at working these things out let alone remembering pass words.

So what we intend is to take it in turns myself, Grace and Jake from the show reporting on the show's comings and goings and what plans we have for the future.

We were less one Grace this week as she was suffering the hangover from hell at 8pm still the day after a few gallons of G&T.

Things we discussed this week were parents lying about how much time their kids spend watching TV when producer Brandon told us that his 3 year old son can operate the remote control already! My girlfriend is 33 and she can't do that!

Also and as if we didn't know already Diet foods are quite bad at filling you up. Presumably if are getting filled up then your not dieting?  As many dieters will tell you Diet food is as useful as Jeremy Kyle.

Jake brought us the Gig guide which you can see at our website soon

And best of all this week we were lucky enough to be joined by new singer songwriter from Medway Jamilia Sooh. At the age of 13 she was given a guitar and subsequently taught herself how to play. If that is not impressive enough she then started writing some pretty nice songs too!!

Brought up in Jamacia until she was 7 you can see the passion of the music from her home burning in her eyes. Singing in churches form a young age has given her a well grounded foundation which should help her continue to perform for years to come!

And now only 15 she is planning on studying as a Lawyer at Oxford or Cambridge as a fall back!! How cool is that! The only thing I can fall back on is my arse!

If you want a copy of her EP then add her as friend on Facebook explaining you would like to receive a copy or she will assume you are just another Facebook weirdo!!

You can watch a video of Jamilia performing here

Our next confirmed guests are wheels and Phil Dillon on 31st January and The Van Susans on 21st February.

If you want to get your songs played then please send an mp3 to the show email

Next week Grace will be writing the Blog providing she's sobered up of course!

Fizzer!!!!!!
