LugRadio Live Wolverhampton 2008
LRL: IRC IRL
Popular podcast goes out with a gong but will return with a new mascot.
Five years and more than one surprihundred episodes later, the popular LugRadio podcast [1] has turned off the microphones. The 2008 LugRadio Live event in Wolverhampton, England, was set to be their last live show. Fortunately, and thanks to its very loyal community, the annual shenanigans will continue and LugRadio Live 2009 is already in the planning stages (Figure 1).
Figure 1: Jono Bacon, Stuart Langridge, Adam Sweet, and Chris Procter retire the popular LugRadio podcast.
LugRadio Live, the original edition, is a true community event. It does not take place in a hot zone of technology such as London or San Francisco – its home is The Midlands of England. From authentic curries and late-night metal music at The Gifford, LugRadio Live gives you the opportunity to visit a town that's off the tourist radar and well worth experiencing. The event itself is enthusiastically supported and hosted by members of the "Wolves" LUG, with additional core volunteers being pulled in from across the British Isles and Ireland.
