The swindle is ON!

Yas! Emo Zero Air Play promos was contacted by the BBC a few days ago. They're looking for Christian punx (and other such strangeties) to be on the telly as part of their Good Friday broadcast 'A Manchester Paaion'.

As it happens, it actually looks really great! They're putting the whole easter story to music, so Jesus will be singing 'I am the ressurection' by the Stone Roses, and Judas will be singing 'Heaven knows Im miserable now', by The Smiths. REALLY!

The great Songs Of Praise swindle is on! Jesus loving freaks on primetime!

And to top it all, Im apparently getting interviwed. Brown pant time, likes.

Good Friday @ 9pm - BBC 3

i tried adding to the great songs of praise swindle - i emailed them to see if they wanted to cover our punk worship night (www.punkworship.co.uk) but they replied saying 'programs are scheduled more than 9 months in advance... however, it sounds like a great idea and i hope it goes well'

well, 'twas worth a try!

Just popping in to say that I thought your comments on The Manchester Passion were spot-on. One of the highlights of my Easter. :)
