Is the idea to send you to events that you know nothing about? Does she consider you representative of the potential audience? Are you generally adventurous in live music? How did you get the gig?

Just curious.

Sophie was on the same part-time journalism course as me, and has got the late night local radio gig as part of Aunty Beeb's New Talent programme. I don't think there is any Grand Plan: she happened to ask me if I fancied being one of her "gofers" and (I'm assuming) thought my first report was funny / interesting / clever / better than 5 minutes of dead air and asked me to do another.

That makes sense. Like most things in life, chance and connections make the difference.

Thanks for answering.
