Tally ho, chaps!

Welcome one and all to all you Rissington Podcast listeners – it’s sure nice of you to stop by!

It all of you regular readers who don’t know what I’m talking about, the Rissington Podcast is a new Podcast by Jon Hicks and John Oxton about all sorts of things; normally with a web/online bent, but the latest episode has a firm Radiohead bent and hence they brought me on to share a few opinions on the whole thing.

And as anyone will tell you, once you get me rabbeting on about music, it might be slightly hard to get me to stop…

I’ll be honest, the whole interviewing process – having not really done one before – was far less painful then I anticipated. I had always previously assumed that it would be horrible, akin to whenever I try and talk to any large group of people – getting stage fright, clamming up etc. Luckily enough it seemed to all go quite well, no doubt in part down to the hosts interview technique (which was mostly an attempt to get a word in edgeways).

I would like to point out at this juncture however, that my voice does not sound like that – I’m not sure what effects they’ve used, or whether they got someone to overdub it, but my voice is infinitely less camp then that.

Also, for any of you intrigued by this whole “sending people CDs” talk, take a look at this post here for a little background information. It’s an on-going experiment, and has already had some interesting effects so if any of you are interested let me know.
