Notes:
"That beat goes right through your head"
Declan on "Party for Your Right To Fight"
I sadly did not have room for some of the dorkier stuff I wanted to play (namely Pop Will Eat Itself). I also didn't have room for Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Tom Tom Club, Body Count or Ice T.
Thanks to Declan and Other Alan at Near FM.

If you're in north-east Dublin or thereabouts, you can tune your radio to 90.3fm and receive the show that way. If you're out of our range, you can stream the show live on the Near FM website, or tune in with any of various online radio streaming app.
The show is recorded during broadcast and I have an archive of past episodes. I hope to make recordings of past shows available online very soon. There are some issues with licensing and file hosting.
