To, me, the campaign was a wake up call to all of us who love 6music

but who have obviously switched off. Whether that's from their side picking the wrong people, or whether it's because the format wasn't moving with times

I've seen loads of brilliant shows in the last year, and I'm going to shows where there's 200/400 tight crowds on tuesday nights, meaning bands are getting audiences

Those bands though, are not getting played on 6 music. Someone must be playing them, and if it's just popularity from the internet, then 6 music needs to learn to compete with the internet

I guess that's what you mean about not getting it right

I think 6 music's demographic is highly pointed at 40+, but a lot of the time 40+ is busy. Hence I think the moment they suggested shutting it down, those people made it a priority to listen more often

It's not the figures now that are important, it's the ones when those people slowly slip away slowly again

In my opinion of course

It's still a great station, but it doesn't yet convince me to turn it on when the choices are available
