Knightmare on KERRANG! radio

Post by JamesA »

Just an update about something that happened yesterday.

On yesterday's "Offside" show on Kerrang, presenters Hywel and Jamie had a theme called "Scores for Scores" where they read out the football scores to the theme of a TV show. As part of this, they asked people to text in with their favourite TV show themes.

I texted in saying that my favourite theme was Knightmare. Not only did they mention my text, but they also played the Knightmare theme tune soon afterwards! The theme tune was then played on a few more occasions throughout the show (and yes, at one point it was played whilst one of the presenters read out the football scores), it was quite a fantastic experience.

You can listen to Knightmare being mentioned on Kerrang's Offside show by clicking on the following link:

http://www.whatson.com/players/kerrang/a_offside.shtml

Knightmare mentions start from 2 hours 35 minutes onwards (so you may want to use the fast forward buttons to get to that time stated) and are uttered a few times up until the final 4 hour mark.

The radio show should be accessible via that link until Saturday (when obviously, Offside returns and a completely different show will have taken its place).

Enjoy, and some other links to complement this Entry:

That's a pretty successful venture there, James!

Nice to see widespread Knightmare enthusiasm.

Excellent. Thanks for setting that in motion, James. I'd say that Kerrang is now worth a Lexicon entry, if you feel like writing one. Hopefully the event will get a mention on knightmare.com too, when the updates are caught up.

Will have to have a listen!

I wonder where they got the Knightmare theme from?

I've managed to extract the parts from the radio show where Knightmare got mentioned, and put them together into a single mp3 download:

(For the above, you will have to enter the three characters when prompted, then there's a short waiting time before the download begins. If the link doesn't work, let me know and I'll get it fixed.)

I will get round to doing that, but admittedly I was waiting for initial responses before going ahead, which thankfully have been positive.

Thanks for posting it, James - I got to this thread a little too late to catch it on Kerrang!'s site. I'm sure Illusion should put the clip up on KM.com!
