Broadcasting from the historic Forest Park Homestead studio in the township of Upwey, an hour east of Melbourne Victoria, Peej, Elliot and maybe even Elaine hope you enjoy some nonsensical ramblings interspersed with great tunes to tap the toes to. We love independent Australian music and spin tunes from local artists over the 3 hours...Sometimes we are lucky enough to have a live performance on the show....quite rare given that 6am is not the friendliest of times for musos...but you never know....

Elliot will be in to do the weather so you know what to wear....but remember if you're listening to an earlier episode, please do not base your wardrobe decisions on this idiot's interpretation of the Australian Government's Bureau of Meteorology website....and maybe even Elaine will do a half arsed surf report when she remembers....

Occasionally there may be a little dead air....our silent panel operator who we shall not name is responsible for all dead air....he considers dead air helps you absorb a musical bracket before we open our mouths and ramble on....

Join us live on community radio 3MDR 97.1fm every Tuesday morning from 6am or enjoy previous episodes via this show page....

We love a bit of involvement from the community whether they be listening live on 97.1fm or via the wonders of modern technologies available to access this thing they call the information super highway......what will they think of next!?

Request a tune, express your delight, or disappointment, in Elliot's weather report......or just have a random chat with an imaginary friend......so super easy...... you can contact Peej or Elliot or maybe even Elaine through cyberspace at peejandelliot@gmail.com

Greetings lovers of community radio!

We hope you're faring well out there.

We opened up with some light music, or rather music about light as one of our favourite local events is taking place on Saturday 20th June to mark the winter solstice.   The Belgrave Lantern Parade is the highlight of winter with thousands of festival goers enjoying the cool, crisp mountain air and the passing parade of beautiful light filled lanterns.  A spectacular event bringing the community together on for the longest night of the year.

From bright lights to city streets, we hung around Melbourne for the remainder of the this morning's program.  Soooooo many good songs and we love local references which trigger the memory of places around our home city.  We do love Melbourne and it appears a lot of musicians do too!
