The campaign to save digital alternative radio station has hotted up, in the week where fans are being urged to send Half Man Half Biscuit to number 6 (geddit?) in the charts.
Though the organisers – who include Jon and Tracy Morter of the successful Facebook campaign that saw Rage Against The Machine beat whoever Simon Cowell was promoting to the Xmas number one – say they will be happy if it charts, as long as it draws attention to the station’s plight.
Bear in mind that we’re talking THIS week i.e. up until Saturday 10th April, so that the track may appear in the chart announced on Sunday 11th. And, if you buy more than three copies, your ‘vote’ will be disregarded.
The track can be bought via iTunes – – or Amazon
