Chrissie Brown Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Just thought you might like to know (if you didn't already) that Jules is in for Tongy this coming Friday. Pete mentioned it on his show last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonross46 Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Why does Tong have to get Jules to cover the show so much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number2Fan Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Coz Jules does such a quality job of it, and Tong has to get his pension. I like Tong actually, don't listen to him enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 When Jules has a holiday, he pre-records his show. When Tong is on holiday, someone else steps up. Interesting... In fact, when was the last Jules' 'show' not presented by Jules? That should keep someone busy for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number2Fan Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 There was one, once really p**sed me off. No warning! Someone stood in like FERGIE I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 According to the Archives, Dangerous covered for Jules on 4/8/07 which came live from Zante and aweek later Tong actually returned the compliment and covered for Jules from Ibiza.

bigsteve Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Fergie apparently did a 4 hour show on 3/5/03, 3-7PM, although it contained mixes from various DJs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissie Brown Posted October 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 (edited) I listen to Tongys show on Fri nights which l find quite enjoyable but when l went to his Closing Party @ Eden on 26/9/08 l was really disappointed as the music he played was so boring. :sleeping: I kept hoping his set would get better but it just didn't happen (well not for me) and l left around 7.15am. He only played a few tunes l recognized and they weren't anything to get excited about, much preffered Groove Armada's set which was full of energy and got everyone jumping about!

JasonB Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 Would you rather Annie Mac cover for tong? she has done a few times,she could play tune for tune what tong does normally actually I havent listened t tong the whole show proper for two years easily, the firts half hour to hour is the same oldf uture commercial bigggies and what not and after the now inessential stagnant roper it all goes downhill he plays stuff I dont favour and has done for the past 2-3 years Jules breathes some life into the show when he covers, playing stuff Tong would never these days so thats why Is ome times listen when Jules covers although Imostly be listening to TATW on a friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW I'm sorry that I missed that Zante show bet it was fab! I like TONG he's like roast dinners and frosty winter mornings. I used to listen to TONG when I was getting ready to go clubbing on a weekly basis, like 14 yrs ago or something. He fits that bill just right I reckon.

Aza Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I used to like it when Fergie stood in for Jules. I recall they wern't bad shows... Good question back up there Steve... If I were to hazard a guess, I would say it's because Friday night slots must be live, thus a stand in is required and also Jules does an ace job (as mentioned above). That does kinda sound weird when he used to pre record on Sat esp with Web chart winner and all that :s Ah well - just a thought... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigsteve Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Good point Aza. I hadn't thought of it like that. I always thought Jules' recorded shows weren't perhaps the same quality as regular shows, with hardly any new tracks in them. Hats off to Jules for making the effort to not miss a show, but maybe they would be better with a live show and an alternative presenter. Probably irrelevant now as I guess most of his shows are recorded...if not all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonB Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 Jules show now on a erlier time more likely him to be there live but all mixes pre-re corded no doubt BBC being lazy on upping tracklist tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they've been live so far, not too sure about the one with Markus was only really listening to the tunes on that one, but certainly the others were. You can tell in the tone of his voice I think. LIVE is always always MUCH better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissie Brown Posted November 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 He was in the States last week, so was it broadcast from there? I don't think so Steve, it was recorded (Jules Show with Markus) I've tried to stay up for the first 15 mins of his 11-1am shows and apart from that week his shows have been live as l could see him on the webcam. Jules will be away for this Fridays show as he will be in Taiwan and in Japan on Sat night so it definately won't be a live show this week.
