Broadcast blast from the past

I’ve just found this article from BBC Radio Lincolnshire magazine, summer 2004, p.8.

Scanned copy of BBC Radio Lincolnshire magazine article on the Friday Night Mix

For nearly six years between August 2000 – May 2006 I was involved in volunteer ‘youth’ broadcasting at BBC Radio Lincolnshire. We played records, interviewed people, went to festivals and gigs, ran packages recorded by students and young people from the county, created web pages about the local music scene, and featured a live or pre-recorded ‘unplugged’ session from a Lincolnshire band most weeks. It was called the Friday Night Mix. It was fun.

The show is still on air and going strong, presented by a chap called Tom Morris, only now it’s called BBC Lincolnshire: Introducing.

It goes out on Friday nights between 7pm-9pm, on BBC Lincolnshire (94.9FM, 104.7FM in Grantham, 1368AM and online). It’s on Twitter (@bbclincsintro), too.
