Show: Missing Links, Tuesdays 1-3pm<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I joined MainFm earlier this year. I\u2019ve hosted radio programs in the past, been a guest on a few others. Community radio is great, especially in regional areas where access to a diverse range of music is often limited. I\u2019ll always remember being about 12 years old. At the time I lived on a 500 acre flower farm in the Dandenong Ranges. One day, while I was flicking along the radio dial, I heard this wild sound. I immediately released the pause button on the black cassette I had waiting and taped the song, leaving it to record until the presenter announced the song title. A French group called The Dogs. The station was RRR, my life was changed forever.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent times I was DJIng live in Melbourne. Co-hosting regular and one off DJ events. A little further back to the late 1980s and 90s. I played drums in a few noisy Garage Punk bands. We played all the fun venues of that time, Punters Club, Tote, The Club etc.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Missing Links. A celebration of Garage, Punk Rock and Indie Pop. A couple of months. I\u2019m driven by a desire to share the music I love. It\u2019s great having to curate a show each week, it inspires me keep searching for kicks, for new sounds and dust off a few ol\u2019 faves.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve remembered how much I enjoy presenting a radio program. Through volunteering at MainFm I\u2019m reminded what an incredibly creative and diverse community we live in.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One night driving home from Melbourne, I remember hearing Shake Appeal. I couldn\u2019t believe my ears! That there was someone out there playing Garage and Punk on the radio in Castlemaine. From there I discovered all the other great shows on MainFm. It\u2019s A Jangle Out There is an excellent way to spend a Thursday evening.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To me, the phrase ‘community radio’ means freedom to choose. Connection.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stand-out, memorable moments include people texting in to say things like, Hell yes! I love The Mummies or this reminds me of The Fall. It\u2019s beautiful.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use Instagram. Find me at missinglinksradio. Each Tuesday morning before my show I pop up a little post to remind people of the show time and where you can stream it. It\u2019s great, I get people listening from all over the country and internationally too. The internet is great tool.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
