Ask me tomorrow and that list would

That question would give some DJ’s aneurisms. This
questionnaire is really a plot to
kill us all isn’t it?!?!
• Favourite film?
Shawshank Redemption
• What's the first thing you do in the
morning?
Ring a taxi for yer wan beside me, make a very strong cup of
tea and have a shower.
• Do you wear boxers or thongs?
Black Calvins or Diesels all the way baby
• What 3 items would you take with you to a
desert island?
1)
Whoever happened to be free between Kelly Brook, Kirsten
Durst, Heather Graham,
Dido, Nell McAndrew, Penelope Cruz, Angelina Jolie, Louise
Redknapp or Denise
Richards …… Im not too pushed
2) My audio PC with music software and tons of MP3’s (Im
presuming this is a magical
desert island where all electrical items can be plugged into
trees and mixing desks,
synths etc can be made out of sand and water)
3) A radio (naturally). Again, this been a magical island, I’d
pick up a station that only
broadcasts shows from Pat Courtney, Greg Gaugren, Howard
Stern, Colm Hayes,
Chris Moyles, Steve Wright, John Peel, Pete Tong and of course
the best bits of
Freedom.
• Funniest drunken moment? (that you can
remember)
Erm, deciding it’d be a greeaat idea to hug the tree in my
garden around Christmas
time one year. Me and the tree were “one” that night.
And then there was the whole falling off a 5 foot high stage
into a nearby table of
drinks whilst DJing at a mate’s wedding
• What would you say before you kicked the
bucket?
“Testing, testing …mic check waaan twoooo, WAAAAAAAAN
TWWWWOOOO... mic check”
• Things that satisfy you the most?
Decent/funny conversation with genuine people.
A great book/film. A great gig (club, bar or
radio). A great link. Doing
intimate bold things with a female of the
species. Making music. Being
in the relaxed company of people I like/family or my lickle
niece Claire. Spending a day off pottering
around my bedroom studio. A great meal with
lots of alcoholic beverages. Lying on a beach
in a very hot country.
• Happiness is?
Most of the above.
Peace of mind.
Ignoring begrudgers/pessimists and just doing your own thing
regardless. The early bits of a good
relationship. Standing back to smell the roses
now and again. A 72 hour Tantric sex session.
• What do you wear in bed?
Boxers and a T-shirt.
• Most embarrassing moment on air in
general?
On-air... Erm, in chronological order then – leaving the mic
open for about half an
hour on Power FM, doing an All Nighter with 2 other jocks on
Club FM that got
very messy indeed, deciding it’d be a good idea to play some
“jingle bells” type
sounds over Mark’s “Maniac” one Christmas Day on Pulse,
pronouncing The Art Of
Trance’s “Madagascar” as “Mad As A Car” on ESG and, most
recently, telling the
listeners of my first show on Energy 94 that the morning jock
would be back
at
“9 tomorrow afternoon”.
Erm, can I still
work here??
• Have you any phobias?
Giving speeches without a mic (weird I know), Culchies with no
tact
(“Wellynaphobia”?),
Dublin’s Ben Sherman brigade (“rrrrraaaaaaaapiiii!”)
(“Knackerophobia”?).
• Most annoying song?
Proclaimers – “500 f**king Miles” Aaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!
• What would you buy if you won the
lotto?
A
couple of holiday homes with Brazilian go go dancers feeding
me grapes on the
hour, every hour.
A radio station
(naturally) WhatInTheNameOfJaysus??! 103FM – “the most scarily
eclectic music mix known to man” – from the Fureys to Rick
Astley to Marvin Gaye
to
movie soundtracks to RnB to classic 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and 90’s
to Rock to House to
Ambient and everything in between. It’d last about 2 weeks Id
say.
Id pay scientists to figure out...
a)
why Ronan Devitt’s hormones are always at him
b)
why Elaine Kane has a Kylie fetish
c)
why Louise Jordan only dances to RnB, and...
d)
why Andy Walker is barred from 80% of our capital’s fine
drinking establishments.
There’d also be
a big dirty brown envelope for Bertie to solve all our
countries
problems, a 100k music studio with Pro Tools and every
recording toy known to man,
a
hovercraft to avoid traffic, implants that stop taxi drivers
from moaning, oh and a nice
blue space shuttle too... sure why not.
