[Mael-list] BBC Ban

[Sue Harris, Republic Media]

Yes they were irritated

Please do contact duty offices, local press, national press, websites etc etc etc

As you say John, this could be used to the band's advantage but only if there is a "public uprising"

I'll be doing my bit but over to everyone to do their bit too...

Well - if history is any indication, Dick Around could be No. 1 within days.
  
 The interview with R & R on BBC Radio London this morning opened with a playing of Perfume.  Why???
  
 It would appear that the BBC have judged Dick Around as unsuitable for airplay!!!!   I think the current Net abbreviation is FFS!!!!
  
 Ron and Russell's irritation was palpable - understandable when you get up at 6am to promote something that no-one can hear.  I don't know whether this is a 'watershed' restriction or a blanket ban - and not sure how to find out.
  
 All we can hope is that,  as with the Sex Pistols 'God Save The Queen' and Frankie GTH 'Relax' - the record buying public descend in droves to snap up this piece of aural filth and decadence to hear for themselves.
  
 I'm sure there is a duty-desk at the BBC where even if we can't get answers, we can register our indignation.  I'm on the case.  
  
 See you all on Saturday?
  
 John
