Google throws up some of the oddest stuff I've ever
seen on the net. Googling for CdB earlier this evening I found Unibrow Now I'm probably on some FBI database for showing an interest in CdB. My profile has just been altered on interpol as a possible CdB fan |

Well I think if they try and change the basic philosophy of the station then it wont be long going down the tube Ian... I think the guys that run it on a day to day basis would be strong enough to resist any drastic changes anyway.... The day they start playing Westlife that's the day I turn it off....

The Edge was involved in the application/submission of "Storm FM" for the Dublin youth market approx 6 yrs ago. The backers for that included John Reynolds (POD,etc) and Louis Walsh. I think they lost out to SpinFM. According to the latest press releases about Phantom's return to the airwaves "Phantom is backed by U2 manager Paul McGuinness's Principle Management and promoter Denis Desmond's Gaiety Investments, among others." big commercial backers but hopefully boyband free zone |

Yep...I've heard that show a few times...was interesting okay.. Have to say.. I hate stations like 2FM and Q102 and 98FM with their Flatpack DJ's ..they all sound the same and play the same music...tho RTE 1 to their credit do provide some interesting and different shows... |

They use to do a great show on Sunday afternoon. They would go through all the old Radio stations and relive some of the history and. They covered the likes of ARD, Radio Dublin, Sunshine 101, Nova, Q102 tthe 80s one, KissFM... Those were the days A friend of a friend use to do delieveries and had to bring stuff over to RTE and the security guard won't let him in to RTE cause he had a Sunshine 101 windvisor. told him he let him in if he takes it down. He didn't it down and turn around to the Depot. RTE rang the depot looking for the equipment and why wasn't it delievered and they told them the story. Even my froends friend wouldn't take the sticker down. Anyway cut a long story short person who wanted the stuff delievered got on to RTE security and told him to let them through and he still said no until his neck was put on the line for the stuff not been delievered... Bloody security men P P |

Well I know Geldof was involved in the other station...so maybe the edge is too..don't think any "celebs" are involved in Phantom...just lovers of music like ourselves... Was basically a case of the big money guys not getting their own way...those guys in Phantom have been working their asses off bringing decent music to the Irish airwaves for the last number of years when it was...and still is..virtually impossible to find any station here that doesn't just play the usual chart based music...especially during the day....can't wait to get them back on my car radio again... |

They are gonna be back on the airwaves (the radio ones that is) very shortly..they were granted a licence ages ago but it has been the subject of an injunction..disgracefully so.. The best..well..only alternative music station in the country... |

Pity he couldn't cure himself. Just imagine, if he massaged his own throat, real hard, I mean real, real hard. So hard in fact that he was unable to sing any more. |

De Burgh 'able to perform miracles'
Singer/songwriter Chris De Burgh claims he is able to heal sick people by touching them with his hands.
The Lady in Red star stunned TV presenter Glloria Hunniford when he revealed his amazing ability on British show Heaven and Earth yesterday. "I have found myself able to cure people with my hands," he said. "I met someone in the West Indies who was not able to walk. I put my hands on him and he was able to get up... I try to play it down." (http://www.breakingnews.ie/2006/10/09/story280214.html) - the guy must've recognised cdb and legged it! - CP |

http://www.talipesireland.com/ Ok this is me being serious for once. Not going to go into a big spill here. But basically this site is to do with Talispe Equinovarus more commonly know as Clubfoot. The site was set up my ex girlfriend. She has lovely little boy who is 2 and a half years old called Jamie. When Jamie was born he was born with a Club foot and has gone through various operations and treatment to help right his foot. His Mam Rhona set up the site for new and old parents with children of similar problems to get in contact and to give each other support and advice and to talk about there experiences. I posted it here cause there maybe someone out there on the site who is going through this and doesn't know anyone to talk about it to. She has a website with her Storyin it and Rhona and Jamie are featured in Womans Magazine this week 3rd October 2006 Peter |
