Did anyone tune in to Radio X this morning? It's the new name for XFM with the main headline of the relaunch being Chris Moyles on the Breakfast Show.
It started off with the orchestral music that started his BBCR1 show and I thought great, but also hoped they'd think up something new after 3 years. That did stop and change to a new jingle.
Dominic Byrne is supporting, and Pippa from Greg James' show is producing.
It was quite a good listen if you like rock, indie style stuff.
Vernon Kay is doing the 10am-1pm show, and Johnny Vaughan the drive time 4pm-7pm.
Only available on FM in Manchester & London, the DAB nationally and obviously online/app.
Does have adverts. I'd rather that than Grimmy though

Will try this tomorrow morning instead of Nick Quimshaw. Sometimes find it's like listening to a 13 year old girl in the morning.

I started listening to it online until Liam Gallagher came on, then I smashed my computer to pieces and shit in the speakers.

BTW it might have been Noel.. Not sure.. I find both offensive obviously which ever one of the pair is the swaying-small-penised-front-man offends me more..
When that bloke got up on stage and smashed his rib cage in I found my self watching it over and over again with a warm feeling of satisfaction flowing through my soul.

Liam is the swayer. I agree, complete cunt. Always wears sunglasses and coats, even indoors. Fucking weirdo.

Need to get me one of these DAB thingies I think. Drive to work is only about 15mins, but I do miss Chris Moyles on a morning.

DAB is fantastic.....when it works!
Constantly cuts in and out on the Fiesta when listening to KISS in my area, even though i'm close to the city. It did work perfectly elsewhere though, so i'm guessing more needs to be done to the system somewhere

Grimmy cracks me up on the radio show.
It's become popular to hate him since he's been on X factor though

Judging by the way he acts on the X factor, I could not listen to him on the radio.

Haven't seen any of X factor this year, so unable to comment on how he has been

Sometimes the Radio 1 crew can be a bit like giggly school girls, one of them (cant remember who) has an annoying snigger when something mildly funny is said, apart from that I like it.

Only thing I hated about radio one was that game where they have loads of water, and have to fill up mouths as funny clips are played.
It's so much fake laughter gets on my nerves

That's pretty much Scott Mills entire show. A 50 year old gay man with some young boy assisting him spitting water in the faces of "celebrities"

Used to listen to Greg James on nightshifts, before he sold out and moved to the daytime slot. Wanker.

Can't stand grimmy. I tried but just didn't like him. I usually listen to Chris Evans at the mo then switch to Greg James on the way home.
I bet Moyles gets a decent following.
