fantastic and unfantastic

hello fantastic fans
just when everything was going ace and top,......... the unfantastic had to happen...............
and it looks like affecting my "proper telly show in b/w".
first of all,...... tony wilson (yes anthony 'h') was in the channel m studios on thursday doing his new show, and my whole set got moved while i was off doing a video exclusive for my show,.... and when i came in... nothing worked.......... no b/w signal........ no keyboard........no lights...... no hypno wheel......... and no phone line, and i was exspecting paul maccartney to phone me to say he was on the show,...... and then i find out that he's on another channel just after me !!!! has he blown me out ?????

anyway we are battling to try and get all the electric things working......... we've managed to get 2 cameras going up to now and we've got a test card signal,......... so we'll go ahead regardless.

fantastic news is.......... i am at the boardwalk in sheffield on monday, and the bull and gate in kentish town on thursday (after doing iain lee's lbc show in the afternoon) so all that side of showbiz is going good,........
........ and don't forget that channel m are showing all my "proper telly shows in b/w" (in colour) on christmas day.
read on for more details.
best regards
