Chris (via Rachel) is getting grief from the suits upstairs again - with them moaning this time that he isn’t mentioning One Big Weekend enough. Hence today’s show being packed full of plugs and OBW reminders, even if the artist being played wasn’t actually gonna be there. Maybe it’s just me but I think that if people haven’t got the message by now then they should be banned from going anyway. The trails are on every half hour, the pre built segways have clips of the artists in, the stuff has been up on the website for ages - people should really know by now. *pop a doodle do voice*.. but if you don’t - then click here. Thanks (saves me boring everyone else to death with the details y’see). Chris was bored to death himself already, and remember he’s been accused of not bigging it up enough. He said the only reasons to go anyway were to see mouldylookinstain and Natasha Bedingfield. He said he’s really got a thing for her now, and wants to meet her badly:
Chris - I think me and her would get on really well. I think I’m just the man she’d need. Y’know a sophisticated character... cos seriously she’s got great breasts
Dave - mmm
(Dom, Rach and Jules laugh)

mmm nice cans. Everyone on the show (bar Aled) went out for a team bonding session last night, or in other words - to watch the football down the pub. Aled and Scott Mills both blew them out (so to speak) by not showing up - with Aled claiming that he needed to get his beauty sleep. Chris called him a girl. Hmm, harsh but fair. Chris said Aled had ditched the team and as a result is now excluded from their tight inner circle. I know - he must be gutted. More or less everyone on the team got bladdered last night. Dom’s excuse for finally leaving was “I am a human being”, a gyrating Jules did the splits over their table (good mornin) - and Dave walked into the office today saying that he just wanted to go to bed. Hardly filling Rach with confidence for the show. A borderline hung over Chris recalled the new friend Dave made last night - some top heavy cutie in hot pants that he spent roughly an hour chatting to after the England game:
Jules - Oh!! She was really giving it some wasn’t she?
(Chris laughs)
Dave - Whoa! whoa! whoa!... back up there Jules
Chris - Right OK so now we’ve got to play a record..
(laughs and plays jingle)

Dave said he talked to her for about 20 minutes and doesn’t see her as a “cutie” at all. That’s not to say she isn’t fit though - it’s just that the wife might have been listening. Dave also added that she’s the daughter of a very good friend of his and Chris’s - who I’m hoping is significantly older than them (if you see what I’m trying to say). With everyone bar Aled tired, groggy and a bit heavy headed - Chris decided to play a real loud wake up tune as today’s Buzz Off. He plucked a gem from the archives too, what with it being Gun and their July 94 number 8 hit “Word Up”. 78% of all text voters buzzed it on, and the team buzzed in as follows: Rach on 3:46, Aled on 4:00 and Dave on 4:02.

SERIOUS FOOTBALL CHAT AND TERRY AND KEN RETURN:>>>

(Michael Owen scrambling home England’s winner in Poland last night..)
Now when it comes to football chat on the show, I usually agree with Dave and Jules - i.e. the people who know what they’re talking about. Chris usually gets me annoyed or confused when he talks football - up until now that is. Today after the 7:00 news the three of them (him, Dave and Jules) were discussing the fact that the England players didn’t speak to the media after last night’s game. Dave and Jules called them pampered and overpaid and said they had a responsibility to talk to the press, seen as though they were representing their country. I completely disagree 100% - and agree 100% with Moyles. He said he couldn’t give a rats ass if Beckham doesn’t speak to GMTV or whoever after the games, as long as we win. Dave called the players moody and said they were sulking after all the criticism they received on Saturday, which he thought was deserved as “the majority of the performances were awful”. But they clearly weren’t though were they Dave? We were coasting along to an easy 2-0 win when we made 2 (count them - 2) mistakes. I think the only players that can be accused of “awful performances” were James and Beckham - clearly not the majority of the side. Chris said at least Sven spoke to the press last night. Jules said yeah, cos that’s his job. Again I agree with Chris - Sven’s job is to run the team, not chitter chat to journos every day denying their stories. If he wants to, so be it - but it’s not essentially “his job”:
Chris - Anyway there you go. It’s Five Live, good morning. Apparently Nicky Campbell’s just playing the new GLC track..
(Dom and Dave laugh)

Undoubtedly the funniest bit of the show for me today was Chris and Dave doing more of their Wogan and Ken Bruce Lee impressions at 20 past 9 (you must hear this). It just cracked me up big time - mainly because Daves Scottish accent is so abysmal. Stuff discussed briefly by Ken and Tel today included Deep Dish, lasagna, Kasabian and Jo Jo. Father Byrne (i.e. Dom) was also along with more pearls of wisdom in his thought for the day, which was “bald people are normal too”. You’ll understand why in a moment..

DOM’S HAIR EXPERIMENT:
Image
(old slaphead)
So after yesterday and Juliette’s presents from Windsor Castle, Chris thought it would be nice to exchange the favour and give her some presents in return. Granted ones sent in by a PR firm - some kind of luxury hair care collection for Jules. Including: colour care, daily conditioner, locking spray, colour protection, fizz free defining polish, daily shampoo and gloss drops:
Dave - That’s what you give your dog isn’t it? gloss drops?
Chris - No
(Dom laughs)
Jules - Shut up Dave!
Dave - I’m not saying you’re a dog..

Jules was very pleased with her presents, although as a bald man Dom said he was feeling slightly left out of the link. Chris said he didn’t need to feel like that though, as a different PR firm had also sent in some hair products for him. i.e. - stuff to make his hair grow. Included were a “moisturising scalp and hair cleanser” (head polish) and a follicle booster - with the tag line being “scalp therapy for chemically enhanced hair”:
Chris - Will you use the follicle booster?
Dom (fake laughing) - Do you know what? I actually don’t think I will
Chris (laughs) - Why? Oh please! Would you do it now?
Dom - No I’m not doing it now..
(Chris and Dave urge him to do it now)
Dom (excited) - oh oh oh..(normal voice)...no!!

Dom said he wouldn’t put half his head in normal shampoo and half his head in the “follicle booster” to see what the results were, no. He said he had important weather and travel information to collate. He soon changed his mind though. Firstly cos Chris said the weather and travel would be the same as last time, and secondly because Dave suggested he “do a Ronaldo” by having a big sprout of hair at the front of his head...
Dom - I could look like Ronaldo couldn’t I?
Dave - Yeah but less Brazilian
(long pause - Jules laughs)
Dom - mmm
Chris - mmm

(The Chris Moyles Show - Now With Added Dom Hair)
As it turned out Dom bottled out of putting on the follicle booster as it smelt like Windowlene. Instead he put on the therapy scalp massage stuff, which stunk the studio out.
Dave- Dom, what’s that stupid line on your head?
Dom - Dave, that’s when you drew a line on my head in ink!
Chris - That’s for the boundary?
Dom - Yeah that’s the boundary. Hair side to bald side..

After Tedious Link Dom returned with some bad/funny news - he had made an error. He thought one of the products he had applied up above was moisturising cream, when in fact it was actually shampoo that you’re meant to towel dry and rinse off after 3 minutes. It was about ten minutes since he had put it on. Joy. Chris took a pic of Dom’s head on his phone and showed it him. Clearly visible was the mark Dave had made down the centre of his head, to separate the two segments:
Chris - You look like your being prepped for surgery
Dave - In retrospect I wished I’d use a felt pen and not a ball tip, because I tried to do it very carefully but I’ve left something of a red mark on your head
Rach - Drawing on people’s heads with biros is wrong!
Chris - Yeah don’t do it kids
Rach - Yeah
Dom - If you have bald friends..
(Dave laughs)

With biro difficult to remove, Chris suggested turning it into an elaborate tattoo of a rabbit. Rach said Dave should just draw on fake hair...
Chris - yeah yeah!
Dom - Thanks Rach, you're dead

As Dave went to draw on his head, Dom warned him that their friendship was seriously hanging in the balance. Dave cut short his attempt at a biro love heart, this mainly due to the fact that Dom’s head was grazed, red and close to bleeding. Don’t try this at home folks. Dom said an e-mail had just come in from "The Association of Bald People Protection League”, telling Dave to stop.

NEW CHRIS MOYLES PARODY - FRANK FERDINAND:>>>
For some unknown reason it’s parody central on the show at the moment. We have gone for pretty much six months without any at all - and now we have four (or at least three with one in the pipeline). Joining Dom Estelle, mouldylookinstain and (potentially) Dave’s interpretation of The 411 - is Frank Ferdinand with their song Michael. Not too difficult to understand really - just a song all about famous people called Michael. It does what it says on the tin. If I get a spare moment (which is pretty feckin rare) these next two weeks, then I might transcribe the full song lyrics to add to the Lyrics section of the site. For now though you’ll have to make do with a snippet of the second verse (please note: you can hear it about an hour and 10 minutes in by accessing Thursday’s Listen Again in Real Player - only available to 16/9/04):
LYRICS:>>>
”You’re not quite a dish, you’re Michael Fish,
Tell me weather now Michael,
Awight now, awight now,
You’re a Barrymore Michael,
I’m all that you see, I am Flatley,
So come and dance with me Michael..
(you get the general idea)

A VERY QUICK ROUND UP OF OTHER STUFF TODAY:>>>
Image
Apart from the very boring OBW stuff, other gubbins on the show today included: the classic Prince William Pubic Heirs spoof ad, Chris playing a faulty We Love Weekends trail, a very dull conversation about the LA to London time difference (that got Dave doing jazz hands), a genius bit of Weird Al doing Michael Jackson and “Eat It” during the Kill Bill break - plus a diabolical new single by Khia called “My Neck, My Back (Lick It)”. Er no thanks love. Chris called it utter garbage (correct) and read out his facts on her:
Chris - Apparently she’s been in the underground scene for 2 years...
Dave (interrupting) - She works on the tube!!
(both laugh)

It’s her first UK single from her album “Thug Misses”, which Dave said must be another one of Joce’s typos (her spelling is ruuubish). Chris couldn’t believe the song has been number one in the States and is the most requested song on US radio this year... or could he?
Chris - Now if ever there was an argument for Americans having no taste... there it is right there
(Rachel laughs)
Chris - Good morning America by the way..
(Dave laughs)

Chris said it’s evidently not just Americans who have no taste, as Westwood, Trevor Nelson, Pete Tong and Spoony have all been supporting that track. Dave said so too had he - “my neck, my back (lick it)” - nice.
Image
*half time*
Chris - It’s six minutes past 9. What shall we do now?
Dave - Dunno. Shall we just waffle for a bit?
Chris - Don’t be stupid. That’ll never work..
(Rach laughs)


ANOTHER GOOD CARPARK CATCHPHRASE:
STEVE a cake man who drives Mr Kipling trucks in Southampton 2
PAUL a nice fella too who delivers online groceries in Rugby 1

Daves Tedious Link
Madonna Vogue - Vogue is a type of dance, a bit like the mashed potato and the shag - “Shag” is a word associated with carpet, while a carpet can give you burns unless you treat it with respect - “Respect” was a classic hit for Aretha Franklin - Aretha Franklin has recorded with George Michael - George Michael is of Greek descent originally, a bit like Nemone - Nemone is a long distance runner, like a modern day version of Zola Budd - Zola Budd was famous for not wearing shoes and in that respect shares something in common with Jo Whiley and Sandie Shaw - Sandie Shaw shares the same surname as Tracy Shaw, who used to be in Coronation Street - Coronation Street was first broadcast in December 1960, meaning that if it was a person it’d currently be 43 years old - If you take 43 away from 100 you get 57, which is the amount of varieties that Heinz have - If you add an “E” on the end of Heinz you get Heinze, as in Gabriel Heinze, who has just turned up for work at Manchester United - and Manchester United this summer signed Wayne Rooney, who despite being an Evertonian, was still prepared to turn his back on the club that nurtured him, and “walk away” - Which links us to Cast and Walkaway (good to see Dave really getting over it)

MINOR QUIBBLE
*Nemone runs the 400m, so she’s technically not a long distance runner
