Nigel and David Sneddon visited there old Fame Academy friend Malachi while he was hosting the Just Jones show on Radio Ulster. The three of them seemed to have a great time :-)
A summary of the shows

Thursday 22nd January 2004
Nigel was the first to be introduced, and a request from Lady M was read out. As it was her birthday at the weekend Nigel sent her his greetings, but that wasn't good enough for Malachi, who promptly started singing Happy Birthday and Nigel joined in.

Our fave rocker had his guitar with him, and was allowed to sing us an un-plugged accoustic of one of his own songs, called 'Something Happened'. It's about when he first met his wife Mel, aaawww bless. It's not an upbeat rocky track, definately a soft ballady one. Not bad....

Nigel also announced his new band 'The Freeloaders', and said they will be commencing a tour in March, with one venue booked so far, being Manchester on the 11th March.

David then joined the fray. It seems he's had an invite to the Grammy's, which Nigel was rather envious of !! ;-) They talked about his future plans, and he hasn't ruled out the possibility of recording again, or doing a few gigs. There is even the possibility of a reunion with 'The Martians' for a few gigs.

David then played 'Don't Let Go' on the piano in the other booth. He's darn good live....

Malachi invited them both to return on the Friday, which they both agreed to do....

Friday 23rd January 2004
Nigel and David returned to the radio booth for more banter with Malachi on his last show covering for George Jones. Malachi played one of Nigel's demo tracks, 'Stranger'. This was written a year ago, and was supposed to be his first single, but that never happended (sniff..) It's quite a catchy tune, a ballad again, but a bit more rocky than 'Something Happened'.

There was various banter and other guests popping in, and eventaully David returned to the piano and played 'Stop Living The Lie'.

All in all it sounded like they had a great time, and it was good to hear some of Nigel's original tracks being played on the radio.
