If you are a local singer or are in a local band then send in your CD to Night Owl at 107 Meridian FM. There is a possibility that he will play them.
Ever since he first became intoxicated by that heady whiff of vinyl, music was his first love — and it will be his last. The illegitimate son of a Bavarian count and a one-legged gypsy trapeze artist, he briefly studied air guitar at the Sorbonne, but left early because he didn't like the food.
Returning to England disguised as himself, he found it difficult to fit in due to his habit of speaking only in Captain Beefheart lyrics. He cut a lonely figure as he trawled the record shops of South London. But, dear reader, those wondrous emporiums and their treasures proved to be his salvation as he absorbed with reckless abandon their varied delights. Returning each evening to his humble shack high in Croydon's alpine meadows, he would dance till dawn to the music of beat combos such as The Third Ear Band and Van der Graaf Generator.
Since those heady days he has never looked back and now the man nicknamed The Nite Owl by those who have never heard of him is able to bring his sheer knee-trembling love of everything rock 'n’ roll, along with his dubious obsession with Japanese girl bands, to the people of East Grinstead. With the zany sense of the ridiculous that has become his trademark, his show is broadcast on Fridays between 10 and midnight.
Why not join him? Dress optional.
