The Cowpie Show 2015
from the Cowpie Country Show 2015
It`s just before 8am a hive of activity on the Blue Anchor Showground on the A22 Blindley Heath Nr Lingfield Surrey as stall holders arrive and set up their stands, and Animals are led to pens and groomed making them look smart for presentation and judging later in the morning.
The Susy outside broadcast unit is in position at the head of the main arena courtesy of the Outdoor Sound Company who provide the sound for both arenas at Cowpie.
The Kettle is on when Izzie arrives in time for a mug of coffee, Neil has stayed on site all night soaking up the country atmosphere meeting people and conducting interviews and transmission tests.
A phone call to the main studio in Merstham, and Engineer Jude Reynolds is standing by ready to hand to the Breky Team at the showground – the news finishes and Neil and Izzie welcome you to the Cowpie show with an edit of “Morning” from Peer Gynt suite, and some rather odd sound effects! The show is off, and no end of pre-recorded interviews and live interviews plus Izzie the “Xtreme” presenter of Susy (alledgedly!), screams her way across the main arena on two wheels of a quad bike driven by a rider from the Royal Signals White Helmets!!
Neil and Izzie talk about Dogs, birds of prey and the miss world of the sheep world – Aka Susie the sheep! Baaame if you ask me!
Two hours of live breky show flew by, no more coffee but a taste of sweet cider given to the presentation team all the way from Somerset brings the breky show back to the countryside and a round up by Colin Smith, the event commentator of everything young farmers like best!
Enjoy the edited highlights a montage of interviews and screams!

Interview: Lottie Cook – manager of band “City of Ashes”
Here’s David Jay’s recent interview with Lottie Cook, originally from Maidenbower, who manages Brighton band City of Ashes.
Unprepared. Unscripted.
Ordinarily, Susy Rocks Live is a well polished, well prepared affair with hours of painstaking research going into it’s production. This week, however, a series of unfortunate events and the Bank Holiday has meant that I have literally done nothing in preparation for the show tonight. Sorry about that.
What I have done though is book Beasts (www.beastsband.com) to come on the show to discuss their new music, their plans for world domination and also to play a couple of tunes from their personal music collections. It’s going to be very good. You have my word on that.
If you dig sketchy production, amazing local music and live bands, give us a listen between seven and nine o’clock. If that’s not your bag, well, you know what to do.
