Virgin radio competition

Hi all,

This is a shameless plea for help to get my husband the chance to play on a very very very big stage :o)

Planet of Women have a song entered in the Virgin Radio 'Bon Jovi Idol' competition, where the winner gets to support Bon Jovi at Milton Keynes Bowl on June 10th and 11th

I've just been forwarded the following message -
"Planet of Women will be played between 7 and 8 am
tomorrow (thurs) on virgin radio
105.8 fm
1215 am
www.virginradio.co.uk
Please vote 'pow' or 'planet of women' by texting 81215 when
they play our cover of 'bad medicine' "

The band with the most votes gets put forward to Friday's final, details of which will *hopefully* be announced in time for the winning bands to find the secret location, since rumours of busking in golden square seem to have been dispelled...texts cost 25p + ntwk charge....if you're up at that time of day your help would be appreciated, the chance to play in front of that many people would be truly awesome! (not to mention that we'd get the chance to heckle nickelback, always a bonus... )
:twisted:

thankyouverymuch....

Trudi xx

it would give a very *poing*y LiST moderator the chance to poing in front of many many people (and also take the p*** a little from Nickelback....gets my vote :)

ps Jase, if you guys do get through...you need to make at least one photographer capture the POING...get trudi on the guestlist :)

Sadly my ancient Bon Jovi t-shirt will remain mouldering away in the back of the wardrobe... they came second, around 32% of the total vote I think.

Thank you to everyone who voted anyway, Jase seemed quite calm but i can honestly say it was the most nerve-wracking morning I've had in a while ("just get on with it and give us the bloody results before I chew my own leg off!") :roll:
