This is getting to be a bad habit now.
Once again, things beyond our immediate control have forced a delay in the launch of TGR. However, this time round we are very close on having a fully working, ready to deliver package, unlike previous expected launch dates which were a bit optermistic when we originally thrashed them out.
Most of the reasons for the delay are technical ones but we also have a few key members of staff which will be flying the GRN flag at various events over the next couple of weeks, raising awareness and binge drinking in preperation for the full launch.
On the plus side, I can announce that the following DJ's are already on the schedule for prime time talk slots and are raring to go, starting with Jack-Pott and Caff kicking off the official launch of TGR's live DJ service on monday the 19th November.
Joining them in the prime slots on tuesday through thursday are Funkybacon, MrBlades and Shminty, with prime slot assignments for Loza, Lorcian and Jade and one other still being decided.
In addition, we've already slotted DJ Gungy into a wednesday night cool down slot and have a host of other top GRN mix DJ's ready to put their names to slots in the coming two weeks.
With regards to warm up and mid schedule slots, we're still considering applications from those within our existing team and those we've recieved from outside.
They will eventually get filled, but for the launch we are concentrating on the prime and cooldown slots as these will likely be our busiest periods.
For the rest of that time, full requestable automation will be available until they are fully filled and the schedule looks more like that of Eve-Radio ... except with less DJ Sarge covers.
All in all things are shaping up nicely and we hope to have the full website finished and presented to the public a good week before the launch.
Fingers crossed, eh?
