...started at 6pm.

Music from The Travelling Band, Fairport Acoustic, Jim Cregan, Kate Rusby & Police Dog Hogan so far.

But OMG, the presenters.  Shocked It is like Smashy & Nicey never happened.

It is also competing this year with the European Championships and later on the USPGA golf.

Wow, unlike a lot of BBC stuff that's 'not available' over here, this actually works in LA, they claim to be airing all of FC's set.. and hopefully not just talking about it!
Thanks Smiley

They will, and have for several years though it does tend to get interrupted by irritating station idents.

I was thinking that they should have kept the presenters away from the bar.... Though the eating of the Travelling Band's home made chilli sauce was rather amusing!

...but they never do.

And now they have cocked up the sound at the start of Fairport's set, as they do every year.
