Virgin Radio playlists the sound of silence
The Diary likes to relive its youth by getting down and grooving “wiv da kids”, as it believes to be the correct terminology. So while attending the T in the Park music festival, it was somewhat perturbed to see youths in a tent rhythmically moving about and waving their hands in the air in complete silence.
Perplexed, the Diary realised that said youngsters were dancing while wearing earphones that were playing the music of some of the day’s popular beat combos.
Virgin’s Silent Disco will no doubt be welcomed by noise abatement officers and may inspire a whole new generation of mime artists.
