DJ DES CELEBRATES FIRST YEAR OF BROADCASTING

After the Birthday celebration of “What Ever Rocks Your Boat “ last Friday night we celebrate another programme anniversary, with just a week between the programmes this Friday we celebrate  “Friday Night Rocks” with DJ Des.

Although keeping his programme content close to his chest Des did say in a comment to his sometimes studio collaborator Connor that the Birthday celebration programme  programme may have to run over two weeks if he was to credit all the bands and artist he has featured in the last year. Check out DJ Des’s presenters page to see if he is going to give any more clues
