For show 15 of Ad's Ads - to be broadcast at 6:00 p.m. today (29 September) on GnetRadio and thereafter on Mixcloud, presenter Adam looks at the element that takes up the majority of space on the Periodic Table - METAL - as it relates to being featured in advertisements, whether that being song title, artist name or product being advertised.

From the most abundant on the planet (iron) through to one of the rarest (palladium), you will get to hear 17 songs during the programme.

Not all metals are heavy!

As regular listeners will know, we love playing new releases during Songs From Under The Floorboards, every Thursday between 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. UK time on GnetRadio (supported by Guernsey Arts and Foresters Healthcare).

Well, tomorrow - Thursday 24 September - we shall have the honour of a WORLD EXCLUSIVE play of the new single by Suffolk's Nowhere Fast - 5 20-year olds, whose vocalist just happens to be the son of Stephen Moore, a friend of ours for many years.

Do join us, where you can also hear a Mid-Show Feature on Gillian Gilbert, a couple of cover versions and a number of other new tracks.

But only one exclusive!

The last two Ad's Ads shows both were about "Beverages". However, there was one notable omission from the drinks featured...

Tune in to GnetRadio at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday 25 August (and on mixcloud/gnetradio thereafter) to hear 25+ songs that appear in advertisements devoted to a stout that originated in a brewery at St James's Gate, Dublin in the 18th Century.

Good things come to those who wait, and it's good for you!

On 30 August, The Vale Earth Fair celebrates its 50th anniversary.

To mark this special occasion, we are delighted that VEF Collective member Rob Roussel has dropped in to speak with presenter Martin Tolcher to give listeners an insight into the fair and to select a dozen (or more) of tracks from some of his favourite artists - local and (inter)national - who have played at this Festival during his tenure.

You can expect to hear something from stalwart Mark Le Gallez in at least one of his guises during the show.

Last month's Ad's Ads was "Beverages, Part 1", so we are sure it comes as no surprise that this month sees "Beverages, Part 2" being broadcast.

Still no music from Guinness adverts, so that may give listeners a clue as to a future programme...

Today is 30 June - the last Tuesday in the month...
..Therefore, at 6:00 p.m., GnetRadio brings you the latest Ad's Ads, where presenter Adam takes the listeners through 90 minutes(ish) of advert-related music.

This month's theme - "Beverages". Part 1.

If you can't join him live at broadcast time, the show - as are all GNet Radio programmes - will then be available at mixcloud.com/gnetradio

Beautiful setting last evening on the Terrace at Guernsey Museums (though it was a tad warm inside!) for the Guernsey Arts Summer Showcase, celebrating the Bailuwick's artistic creativity in all it's many forms.

The photos below give a flavour of what the guests enjoyed:

It is a well-known fact that you've got to hold & give - but do it at the right time - and you can be slow or fast, but you must get to the line...

On GnetRadio this Thursday (25 June) at 5:00 p.m. on Songs From Under The Floorboards, presenter Martin Tolcher will give listeners a tasty glimpse of his 1990 in music..

Madchester was still featuring heavily, as we're tracks featuring samples (Mid-Show Feature is "Sampladelic!") and those tuning-in should also get to hear remixes & extended versions, as well as a few mellow vibes and a touch of Qawwali music.

One love, one heart and one soul.

At approximately 21:48 39 years ago, presenter Martin Tolcher was rolling around on his lounge carpet in a blessed out state.

Why was that?

You can find out just after 5:00 p.m. on 28 May on GnetRadio - supported by Guernsey Arts and sponsored by Foresters Healthcare - when he brings you the music he was purchasing that year, as the programme is a Songs From Under The Floorboards 1989 Special.

Tunes from releases pictured below will be played, with the Mid-Show Feature entitled "Rave On".

This is such a hot temptation that you should just walk right in and...
..listen.

Phew! What a scorcher of a Bank Holiday weekend in these parts...
..It seems rather apt, therefore, that the next Ad's Ads - on GnetRadio at 6:00 p.m. today, and thereafter on www.mixcloud/gnetradio - is all about The Weather.

From sunshine, through rain and to storms, Adam will bring you a veritable potpourri of weather-related tunes.
