i am a radio DJ
and i watched The Boat That Rocked
and i amaze
it's a story aboout radio DJs, to be exact, pirate radio DJs.
why they call theirselves 'pirate' radio DJs?
coz they're broadcasting from the sea, and illegally i suppose
(but then i think, back in the 60s, they still don't have the radio wave regulation)
something like that.
angus & simon
the regular DJs
the IT DJs
the count and gavin, the retire DJ that has been hijacked
dr. dave and midnight mark
the two who are driving women nuts
quentin, the boss, and felicity, the lesbian cooker
with the rule: no ladies on board, except lesbians (on weekdays)
marianne, quentin's niece, once slept with dave, she's a fan
and then she's being carl's (the boat's newbie) lover
they live together in a super-boat-titanic-look-like
- not that fancy tho -
all the DJs, operator, owner / program director, and the cookery
as a radio DJ i wanna live like them
they said, as those years passed when they're off the shore,
those were the best days in their lives
when the rules about to be set, which make them breaking laws
they stand together, and keep on broadcasting!
and even when the ship is about to sink!
they keep broadcasting as long as they can!
that's the studio! with all the old type two deck mixers
how i admire the passion for rock and roll
thank you, the Boat That Rocked
you remind me once again about passion
xoxo, M
