Planet Rock and Hyde Park - New Development - Please Read!!

Further to my earlier message about Planet Rock (222.06 on DAB Digital Radio) broadcasting live from Hyde Park in July I have just heard the following on Nicky Hornes show.

'We will be broadcasting all day from back stage at Hyde Park, and at about 9 o'clock, whilst the guys are on stage, we will be broadcasting the original Hyde Park gig from the mid '70's in its entirety. This is not a shoddy bootleg, the band have made available to us the original master tapes of the concert, and we can assure you that they are far better than anything you may already have heard'.

It's disappointing that they haven't got permission to broadcast the Queen + PR gig, although I guess it's understandable with Sheffield due out in a few months. But at least THE definative copy of Hyde Park will be 'out there'.

Planet rock also announced that they will be holding a competition with 6 pairs of Gold Circle tickets to won, and also a pair of backstage passes!!!!

So get listening to Planet Rock with your mobile phones at the ready !!

surely they will be on earlier than 9! as the concert has to end at 10:15!

I'm pretty sure that's what I heard. But the original Hyde Park gig only ran for about 80 minutes anyway, so if they start playing it around 9'ish then it would finish at about 10:15/10:20 which would be about right.

The guys may well have been on stage for an hour before they start rolling the tape.

I'm sure som eof you guys can record it, right? And have an upgrade on this one :)

If someone can educate me as to how I could record this in a digital format I would be happy to oblige. I'm a simple man, with a simple name (when it comes to computers)

THanks for the info. Hyde park '76 in much better quality sounds great!

They probably be starting earlier than 9pm. They started the Newcastle gig @ 8.30pm.

Is it possible to get Planet Rock on the internet as I don't have a DAB radio.

www.planetrock.com

and yes, you can listen on line

can u record online too?

all you need to do is

1. use the LISTEN LIVE tab on the website
2. in windows - START - PROGRAMS - ACCESSORIES - ENTERTAINMENT - VOLUME CONTROL
3. go to RECORDING - and select only WAVE
4. then use your windows recorded (or COOL EDIT PRO) or whatever sound recording software you usually use - to record
5. remember to save

one last point - planet rock stream their online music @ 32kbp so it sounds like it's played through a biscuit tin - not great for recording
if you want a decent copy of this either

1. set your sky+ pvr to record the show
or
2. listen on sky live and record to your stereo
or
3. get a copy from the hub
hope this helps

Actually I'm glad that they are going to broadcast Hyde Park'76. Finnaly we will be able to get that legendary concert in EX quality and make a judgment. Im petty intrigued if it realy had so strange wired sound or it was fault of crappy bootlegs.

come on over tracey [mylittlehammer] you know you want to and we had such fun before!!!
