DJ Wally & DJ Rocking Dave hosted The Marathon Party show, held during the 2007 Radio Gets Wild Broadcast Marathon. The show was aired live on Sunday, June 3rd 12 till 3pm from The Manor House, in the little village of Cossington, Leicestershire.

Alison and Harry of The Manner House stepped in at the last moment to rescue this event from certain disaster after bureaucracy prevented it from proceeding on the Middlefield Road Green, as advertised.

There was a great party atmosphere with music and the usual fun banter between Wally and Rocking Dave. A steady stream of visitors attended throughout the show making full use of the facilities of the house. Not only did Alison and Harry allow access to the ballroom, bar area and sumptuous grounds of The Manor House, they also extended their hospitality to the use of the large outdoor swimming pool and barbeque for those that brought food requiring heating.

 

It was estimated that the show attracted approximately 70 guests, some of which got to speak live on air. Many of the guests remained after the end of the live show, partying away into the earlier evening.



 

 

 

 

 

 

Show featured live acts, something rarely before heard on RGW, that included The Pink Chics on the left, Colette on the right and a duet between DJ Wally and wife, Jan the Legend. Colette sang a couple of well known covers before surprising the guests with a brand new track of her own called ‘Strong’. This was very well received by the audience and RGW listeners tuned in around the world.

Radio Gets Wild’s very own Tim & Dee expressed an interest in this talented young woman, inviting her to submit material for inclusion in future follow up albums to ‘Around The World in 60 Minutes, Volume 1’ RGW’s first publicly released album of Indie and Unsigned artists.

A side show out in the grounds of the house was the popular TV game show ‘Play Your Cards Right’, hosted by Mr Alan Higgs. This involved players working their way across a board of 7 cards from left to right, guessing whether the next card is higher or lower in value then the previous one. There were prizes for players that got all the way across the board. Jan the Legend was just one of the players that was successful in revealing all 7 cards.

The weather was kind all day long and the party and live radio show ran from beginning to end hitch free.

On behalf of Radio Gets Wild DJ Wally and DJ Rocking Dave wish to thank Alison & Harry for granting the permission to use their Manor House which provided the ideal backdrop for turning an internet radio show into a very special day enjoyed by many people.
