... played Bachelor Kisses on daytime radio here in Ireland and had to cut it because it started skipping. That sounds just about right.
Thanks Grant!

fsh, which daytime show made a stab at Bachelor Kisses? Typical that it couldn't get played thru!
5 years ago AM Kelly, a very early morning DJ on Today FM was in tears on air as she made the announcement and spun Streets of your town. Paul Mcloone also played "Part Company" on his show last year and Dave Couse "The Wrong Road" too.

You may have noticed that the news page reports a Grant Tribute show on 2FM on this coming Monday evening.

It was the Ronan Collins show on Radio 1 (11.30am - 1pm) on Friday.
Saw that about the 2FM show - Dave Fannying I presume,
will lend an ear.

Paul McLoone played Cattle and Cane and Bachelor Kisses back to back on his show on Today FM last Thursday. I expect that Dave Couse will play quite a selection on his show tonight. He's a Go Betweens fan of long standing.

Dam - looks like the show aired on RTEs 2XM and not 2FM at midday. Just hope they post up an archive.

Looks like 2XM answered the call and are hosting the show on their website. Here's the link to the stream

Thank you for the link Dave. I've listened to the first 26 minutes and will be back to finish later.
