A Gaggle of Guests on Next Week's Show

It's been a while since we had a guest on - so next week we've got five.

In the first hour, we'll be joined on the phone by Chas Hodges, one half of legendary pub rockers Chas'n'Dave. He'll be talking about his new book, Chas and His Rock'n'Roll Allotment, in which he seeks to prove that gardening and growing vegetables needn't be a chore.

Tune in to listen to the great man and stand a chance of winning a copy of the book courtesy of Apex Publishing. With a bit of luck, we'll also get some information about the Chas'n'Dave Farewell Tour taking place in 2011.

Then later on in the show we'll have The Deadly Pineapples in the studio. This budding four-piece from Alnwick and Warkworth have just finished recording their debut album; there'll be a exclusive preview of a couple of tracks and much rock-related banter.

So tune in next Thursday from 1pm for great music and even more great guests!
