[Imc-london-audio] today's IndyMedia London Newswire show: post-hoc

[devlishmay at aktivix.org]

Hey Douglas, 
I can drive the desk actually : ) , and have engineered the show before, it is
just that I did not usually engineer because there was so much going on in the
studio to keep a hold of.
I do think that Alisdair does not love doing our show live,  so when we return,
we should either engineer ourselves or find some one who gets an adreniline
rush from the chaos of our usual hour. I think Alisdair is more of a studio
prerecord engineer he hates having to react quickly which is a must for us, the
time he has worked on the show demonstrates this.
Anyway if we are in a different slot we might get a different engineer,
inshallah !! 
see you all soon 
Penxx

> weeks at the moment), with interviews of local activists who were "there
> in '99" and we should find some archive footage and contemporary music
> to mix with her new stuff. That'll be a nice 1 hour clear spot for
> starters and good experience for her, indeed all of us. We should aim to
> play this on a clear spot sometime in August.
