    As much as I like Lucio, he's no replacement for Alice Cooper.

    He's going to still do the Friday night 80s but give up weekend breakfast:

    I wonder who will get the Weekend Breakfast gigs? Darren Lee maybe. or possibly Sarah Champion?

    I was listening to Absolute this morning, I was sure he just introduced Russ as coming on next but then I was just waking up :D

    On a side note, Russ sounds so bored :( I used to listen to him quite a lot and he didn't sound energetic or lively at all today

    Wonder if that means then she will have to give up the Sunday Night Music Club programme in the new year or whether she will do both?

    Glad Lucio is staying to do Absolute 80's.

    I may have been a little harsh earlier on Lucio when I found out he's replacing Alice on breakfast, however I look forward to hearing what he can do to maintain and gain listeners in that slot in the new year.

    I wish Sarah Champion could be given a regular slot on the Absolute Radio Schedule. Top Presenter, and enjoy listening to her shows. Didnt she used to do Sunday Breakfast before Lucio?

    I think she's planning to go back to America again isn't she?:

    I was listening to Absolute Radio overnight and in to this afternoon and loved the music they're playing as part of "greatest hits". Please keep it up Absolute, your normal playlist of Snow Patrol, The Automatic and other crap is such a turn off for me.

    Loved hearing Meat Loaf - Bat Out Of Hell, REM - Man On The Moon, Guns N Roses - November Rain, David Bowie - China Girl etc plus some of the recent stuff. I'm not a regular listener to Absolute but whenever I tune in, it's hit or miss for me.

    Is she? I know she has been over there for a bit but has been doing quite a bit of cover work on Absolute Radio in the last few months.
