The day I met Jo Whiley
Radio 1 came to Northampton today, in the shape of Jo Whiley and her crew and staged an intimate gig at the Picturedrome just up the road from here, featuring Athlete. Me and Dave went along to get tickets from Market Square where they were giving them out beforehand and I ended up on the radio talking to Jo.
Athlete’s performance was top-notch - possibly the best gig I’ve ever been to, in fact. Tomorrow I’m off to Virgin to buy a copy of Tourist. This is what music is all about!

I heard you! Through my post-Top B haze, admittedly, but I did hear you. You sounded gnarly. Who’s the boy in the photo that’s not you or Jo Whiley?

Gnarly? Nice. You already know who the boy is now, but for the purposes of anybody else who’s confused, it’s actually a random student from Northampton. Nothing interesting there!

I was away in India! Sorry to have missed it though, did you record you on radio 1?
