COUNTDOWN IS BACK THIS JANUARY, 2019 ... ON rage !!!!! Stay tuned below with regular Countdown full archival information for each Countdown episode rage shall be airing every Saturday throughout January ...
To Jase and any other Croweaters who had to sit through a boring night of election TV (is there actually any difference between the Liberal and Labour parties anyhow?) instead of getting to see Rage:
Normally I don't get too excited by Rage guest programmers - the last really good one was Richard Lowenstein late last year - but I thought that Amanda's style on the weekend was one of the best I have ever seen and I know that I would have been a bit miffed had I missed it myself. So for those in the city of churches (am I using enough cliches yet?) who missed the first hour of Saturday night and are interested in a copy, I am happy to send you one. Just let me know.
I don't really care much for her music (well, the little of it I've heard/flicked through on Rage), but she was a brilliant, entertaining host. I especially loved her intro to Laurie Anderson's 'O Superman'. I kept all the segments of her hosting; something I rarely do unless I'm a fan of the artist.
She was amazing,wasn't she?
I'm also not a big fan of her music but absolutely loved her hosting style-she's just so "out there" and spontaneous and made for a refreshing change from some of the boring,dreary, humourless guest programmers on Rage who take themselves way too seriously!
Was a bit surprised though that the map of Australia tattoo hadn't been strategically applied by the end of the night...
