Rogues Radio Halloween Weekend

A few things worth bringing to your attention this weekend that are a little "Out of the norm" from regular weekend sets, all for Halloween!

On Friday DJ Star and DJ Terrahawk will be bringing you all the horror related tunes as they stream LIVE from City of Heroes Halloween Ball on both the Defiant and Union servers. Their dual set starts at 7pm and they can be found in Pocket D.

On Saturday DJ Coin will be turning his Rock Zone into a special Vampire Rock Zone! No, not the sparkly nonsense, were talking real vampires with all the music coming from the shows Buffy and Angel! No Glittering Allowed! Tune in at 10pm as always!

And on Sunday, there's to be a Halloween Musical Spectacular, brought to you by our resident evils Fishy and Knighty. That's right, it's an all singing, all dancing (they assured me there was much dancing going on while it was being recorded) Fishy and Knighty version of War of the Worlds. Titles "War of the Hypno Animals!"

Intrigued? Then make sure you tune in at 10pm on Halloween night (Sunday) to find out what this is all about.

Happy Halloween folks

Hi all!

Just wanted to add an update to say that Rogues Radio is now an official supporter of the Real World Hero charity drive being organized by Mr Wentworth on these forums! Now is the time for the EU population of this awesome community to show how much it cares as well!

We have a link on our site to their site or just click here for more details.

As it stands, the charity drive has already had donations from players on the Union server but nothing from Defiant yet! I'm sure that will be soon rectified though

Also, we are hoping to be able to donate a prize on the auction they are running as well, more news on that as it breaks!

More news from the Real World Hero charity drive!

Rogues Radio is offering the chance for one of you to choose all the music for a 2-hour set from the DJ of your choice!

Simply put, you get to choose from a list of DJ's, choose all the songs they play and can even appear on the show with them! (technology permitting)

Just imagine the chance to chat away with Rosie, discuss the finer points of Queen with Escalus, chill out with DJ Phoenix, laugh it up with DJ Star, drool at Terrahawks sexy voice or even get me, DJ Coin.....to play 2 hours of Muse! (please, please, don't!! )

You might even get the chance to appear on the Fishy and Knighty show and be immortalized forever on the internet in their Podcasts!

Simply visit the page for the prize and make your bid! Highest bid wins the chance!

So, who's feeling brave?

Posted on the website now. That's a very admirable initiative you've got there, well done!

Thank you so much sweetie

We would all at Rogues Radio like to welcome DJ Notty to the station find out when he is on at www.roguesradio.com and when all the other DJ's are on as well

Congratulations Notty!

Yay for Notty - our first non-UK European DJ! I think we need more of them...

It's an update on Real World Hero!

http://realworldhero.com/dedicated-2...m-roguesradio/

The auction has about 7 hours left to go, and there's been a few bids. One for Terra, one for Phoenix and - at time of writing there's a few bids for a Rosie and Coin Show. A dual set from the husband and wife team... fantastic idea!!

Time is running out, so please bid on one of the DJs, get your own 2 hour show and donate to charity. It's for a very good set of causes.

Update on RealWorldHero.

The winning bid came from Virtue who plays on Defiant and is a member of the GRRR Supergroup and she bid (and we're still all 'woah' about it) £250 on Coin and Rosie.

Yes, that's right, 2 5 0. Not a typo. If you see her in game, I think a very well done is the least to say, because damn... Very well done indeed. I believe it was the highest bid on anything in the auction.

The only downside is Coin can't leave the house due to the size of his head at the moment!!!

I would also like to say thank you to Virtue for her kindness, she has a heart of gold

I would also like to thank all those who made bids as well as donations to the charities, thank you all so much. All of you are great and I am pleased to say I am so proud to call you all friends

You know, with that amount of money bid...


We really should get Coin in a mankini!

Happy New Year from all of us at Rogues Radio!! Hope you've had a great holiday break (those of you not working!) and Santa and the sales got you all you wanted!

What do we have in mind for 2011? Well....

Jay, who does the Thursday slot from 7pm has three special sets planned for January. I'll let him tell you!

Part Two - 1975 - 1987 Taking tracks from Young Americans, Station To Station, Low, Lodger, Scary Monsters, Let's Dance, Tonight and Never Let Me Down. (And Labyrinth!) Part Three - 1989 - 2003 Taking tracks from Tin Machine, Tin Machine II, Black Tie White Noise, The Buddha Of Suburbia, Outside, Earthling, "Hours...", Heathen and Reality. I have excluded live releases from this list but may play some things from various live albums and the recent "retro" releases will be put into the relevant time period and if you have any requests please post them on the Rogues Radio forums. Part One Thursday 6th January 2011 @ 7pm

Then, on Thursday 13th January @ 10pm, I'll be doing a special set in memory of people we have lost. It won't be the most upbeat of sets, but if you have any dedications in memoriam of someone, please let me know. You don't have to let me know publically if you don't want, PMs here and on the Rogues Radio forums are fine.

We also have the Rosie and Coin Show coming up - the date has yet to be confirmed by Virtue who bid £250 in the Real World Hero auction, but we are all looking forward to that show! Believe me, when we have a date for that we will all be shouting it as loud as we can (apart from Coin!!)

And, of course, the rest of the DJs at Rogues will be doing what we do best - playing an eclectic mix of tracks every evening! Start times vary, so please check the Rogues Radio website for the full schedule.

We may even get Hal the auto-DJ going again for times when there is no DJ available, but since Hal hijacked the station over Christmas, he's currently undergoing repairs. It's amazing what technical problems can be solved by hitting something with a hammer...

New developments @ Rogues Radio!

Firstly, welcome back to Mrs ? who has reclaimed her Monday slot at 8pm UK time. She's had a good break and is back and better than ever. She's also arranging a competition which begins on 24th January. Check out http://roguesradio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=808 for further details and the rules. A big thanks to Avatea for helping with the prizes!

Secondly, we have 2 new trial DJs! Sgt M P Lawrence - the Sarge - starts his trial sets this Sunday at 9pm, and we have Big Jay, who some of you may have heard of from Music World Radio who will be on Wednesdays from 10pm. He's not to be confused with 'I don't have a nickname, I just play cool music' Jay who is on Thursdays and just completed a fabulous series on David Bowie!

Thirdly, we have so say 'see ya' to DJ Kiko who is taking a short break from his Sunday sets, but he will return in a few months. In the meantime, DJ EJ will be going from 6 until 9, and the Sarge will covered 9 until midnight until Kiko comes back.

New year, new DJs, even more great music!

Hey, Esc!

Who were you covering for who was supposed to post this?

An epic meeting of two lovely ladies!

This week, Rosie will be doing Rogues Radio first Big Name Interview with none other than City Of Heroes moderator and sweetheart, Avatea!

And best of all, you all get to ask the questions!

Simply post in the thread on our forums here with your questions and we'll pick the best ones and put them to her during the interview. Bear in mind, Avatea is the Community Moderator for the official City Of Heroes forums, rather than one of the game developers, so questions that deal with her range of expertise will be more likely to be picked than ones asking about whether we're going to get this powerset with that archetype and will Issue 21 be set in space and the like!

Rosie will also be asking her usual range of random questions as well, but the more we get, the better!

Ask away, folks!!

A few changes at Rogues Radio:

Mrs ? has stood down as a DJ and we're sorry to see her go, but give her time and she may be back.

Coin hasn't been slacking though and in her spot on a Monday we have a new trial DJ, Donut, known in game as @New Strange Friend and her first trial set is Monday 28 February at 8pm UK time.

Speaking of trial DJs, The Sarge and Big Jay have been promoted to full DJ status and are now permanent additions to the RR team.

And, finally, Kiko returns 18th March! He's had a break from the station but he'll be back in a few weeks time.

The more things change, the more they stay the same!

Just to add to the previous post:

DJ Kiko will be returning in his NEW time slot of 4pm - 6pm (UK times) and DJ Notty will be moving from his Saturday 6pm - 8pm slot to Sunday 8pm - 10pm.

Tune in tonight from 8pm - 10pm at www.roguesradio.com as I bring you ....

Fish's Fight Night

A Musical Melee

Tuna in to find out what THAT'S all about :P

Give a proper welcome to DJ Donut, who is now a DJ proper and not one of our trial DJs. Want to be a DJ on Rogues Radio? Talk to Coin and he'll be happy to help out.

30th April is our one year anniversary, so keep your eyes peeled for some special things happening around that time!

The first thing is a special tribute set. As you might be aware, Rogues Radio was set up by Coin and Rosie, and they have put blood, sweat and tears in to keeping it going. While Rosie isn't station manager these days, preferring to leave that kind of stress to Coin, without her Coin wouldn't be half as good at this as he is. So, on the 28th April, in a change from my usual show, I'll be doing a tribute to Coin and Rosie to thank them for everything. If you'd like me to a tribute on your behalf go to http://roguesradio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=960 and leave a message and/or track request. Let's make it a night to remember for them both! (In the nicest possible way)

Did you know that Rogues Radio has a global channel, where you can make requests, find out who's on each night via the message of the day, and just generally chat, discuss music, make fun of each other, and just generally hang out and have a laugh?

Apparently there's a few people who don't, so I thought we should mention it again! Rogues Radio is a public channel and you can find it by searching, or if you know someone who wants an invite let us know. Most people hang out in the events channels, such as Sal's Badgehunters and Defiant Events and while we can tell you when we're on, it's not fair to flood those channels with non events requests, which is why we have the Rogues Radio channel, so you can flood that one instead!

We're pretty liberal - the only thing we ask is you don't swear in channel, as it is against the EULA, but other than that almost anything goes. Granted all you get some nights is CHOOON followed by CHOOOON with more CHOOON but there is banter as well.

The Rogues Radio Global Channel - for good chat to accompany great music.
