Tommy Vance's "DUST" trailer
Back in the day, I recall listening to Steve Wright's afternoon show. As was customary, Steve put Tommy Vance's trailer out for that week’s show.
What I can remember is its wit and how Steve Wright was heard laughing as loudly as me.
I'm afraid it's too long ago to recall too much as verbatim, but in short, this was a tale of how disaster was going to beset your home. The very DUST in your ears, was going to be upset by the Friday Night Rock Show.
So loud was the show…
“DUST in your sideboard, DUST in your carpet, DUST in your speakers, DUST in your walls, DUST in your lug-holes is going to be wafted into the air.”
Forced to laugh, the trailer intruded into Steve Wright's show, and demanded a 'follow that then!'.
I’m afraid my words and memory don’t capture Tommy’s essence, but to this day it’s still the funniest radio trailer I know. And by a mile.
Please, somebody say they remember it too?
