04/06/04 - Razorlight upset Aunty Beeb
After their sold out gig at Manchester Academy last night the band came straight offstage to go and do a live interview with Michelle Mullane at BBC Radio Manchester. This is what Johnny says happened : During the first half of the interview Johnny was talking to Michelle and casually swore (fuck) The conversation was wound up and then station then played 'Golden Touch' During the song Johnny was asked not to swear for the rest of the interview and he apologised and said that was fine. The band were then told this morning that the single has been banned from further plays at Radio Manchester, their interview was canned and Razorlight will not be allowed to do any further regional interviews or live sessions on any regional BBC radio shows. (This means that their planned interview with BBC Radio Nottingham tonight has been cancelled) The station reported to Razorlight's regional plugger that as soon as Johnny swore the red light went on in the booth, signifying that the show had gone off air immediately. They played the record to fill in the gap but I don’t know what they are saying happened afterwards. |
