OK guys so fire me!! (Nah, you won't really)! I have had a manic time lately so only just now sending the press packs out to DJ's.
Well it did add up to about 30 and my printer gave up so let's just say it was a challenge but should all be in the post tomorrow if not the ones I did today!

Hi Willow
You are doing a fine job with all the promo packs,they might be a bit late going out but as they say "Treat em mean and keep em keen!" This would be a good time to hit Capital and Southern for requests for playtime for the album.On that note im off to Southern to fling them a reminder! Regards Hugh

OK guys, time to hit BBC Radio 2 with all our might??
All the press packs will be in their mits by Monday and I will initially follow up with an email to them all with soft copy of the press release and mpgs so suggest we then bug them every day next week until we get some airplay.
DJ's to email/call/text are: Simon Mayo (does Five Live too), Steve Wright, Chris Evans, Janice Long, Terry Wogan, Ken Bruce, Jeremy Vine, Jonathan Ross and I threw in Eamonn Holmes for good measure!! Have approached Mark Lamarr via a personal route so don't want to spam him just yet.
In addition packs have gone to: Tom Robinson (Radio 6), Edith Bowman and Huw Stephens (Radio 1). Plus John Gaunt, Ian Collins and George Galloway at TalkSport.
Radio 2 really is the top prize, if we can get Billy airplay on there it will filter down to everywhere else so lets hit them hard next week. I will keep you posted on here and will send out an email next week to the wider forum folks.
Thanks for all your help!!

Hi Guys We need to hit Jack hard now! www.southernfm.co.uk/Article.asp?id=292230&spid=11395 Can everyone drop him a line here to request airplay for Billy!!!!! Jack is an alright guy and i know he will respond to a load of people hitting him.His hands are tied with regards airplay as it is all controlled by the big boys in London,Se we need to get him to push the album personally.Sio hopefully if everyone pushes one on to jack he will push himself. Thanks Hugh |

Hi
All the DJ's on the list above should now have received their Turtledove Boutique press pack and I sent them all follow up emails today with 50/50 America attached.
I will email all the forum members tomorrow with the email details Hugh collated and get everyone writing in to request that they play 50/50 America.
