Bye from ATL TV :(608 Tage her
 
Well that's it folks, for another series of ATL TV!

Over the next couple of weeks our Bebo media channel will be becoming a more general page for all things Across The Line - including the radio show.

But never fear! ATL TV will be back this summer - out and about at all the main festivals here. If you've got any ideas for features in the show, drop us a line, either here or at atltv@bbc.co.uk

See you in the summer!

We are back!618 Tage her
 
Well we're back from a pretty manic week at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. Over 1700 bands playing in five days - it was pretty amazing. Rigsy got to see loads and loads and loads of bands, but the best I personally saw were a band from Iceland called FM Belfast (check 'em out on Monday's show) and weirdly, a heavy metal Bee Gees tribute band. Trust me, it works!

Make sure you check out Monday night's show to see how bands like Oppenheimer, Fight Like Apes, The Answer and more got on out there - Monday night, 10pm, BBC Two Northern Ireland!

In the meantime, if you can't wait til Monday for a bit of ATL TV action, check out our new photo album - ATL TV at South by Southwest, and also look out later this week when we manage to bypass the ancient BBC computatron systems and get an Eyebrowy out-takes special up here!

Check you later!

We're officially on countdown to tonight's programme. So what's in store for Programme 5????? Well, we caught up with The Enemy lads in Manchester.... Mr Foy Vance does an outstanding studio session.... David Holmes gets the Eyebrowy treatment... and we're taking a look at Northern Ireland's home grown festival scene.

As if that wasn't enough you can see music videos for Lotion and Two Door Cinema Club which were created just for ATL, and of course Dr Rigsy has inflated his psychiatrist's couch to give Super Extra Bonus Party the benefit of his 'wisdom'.

How can you possibly face the public tomorrow if you miss the programme (on BBC 2 tonight at 10pm)?

And don't forget you can watch it all over again by checking out iPlayer when the programme is over....

SxSW Video Diary 1628 Tage her
 
Hey guys,

Well we're working hard out here in Austin, Texas to bring you the ATL TV South by Southwest special. If you haven't heard of SxSW, it's the biggest music industry gathering in the world. 1700 bands are out here playing over the course of five days, so it's a bit manic!

You can catch the ATL TV SxSW special on Easter Monday, but in the meantime, enjoy Rigsy's daily video diaries! There will be one appearing every from now on until we leave here on Sunday.

Check you later!

New time! What's on! Video diary!632 Tage her
 
Hey everyone,

We're just putting the finishing touches to another great episode of ATL TV, which for one week only is on at 11.20pm on BBC Two Northern Ireland on Monday.

Here's what you can catch on the show...

* Rigsy speaks to Kate Nash and gets the low-down on how she feels about winning a Brit - she's only 20!

* We look back at the U2 and Ash gig which took place 10 years ago to help bolster the Yes campaign for the Good Friday Agreement

* Is it the best Eyebrowy yet? They give us a potted history of Neil Hannon's Divine Comedy this week. It's brilliant, and includes a performance from a certain male TV / radio presenter

* Panama Kings perform Bloodrush on the ATL TV set

* This week's 'specially commissioned video comes from Kowalksi

All that, plus the usual Gang of Four, and a Snow Patrol track from the archives.

Miss that, and you will most definitely miss out.

Finally, we're off to South by Southwest in Texas next week - filming a special which will be shown on Easter Monday. You can catch Rigsy's exclusive video diary from Austin from Thursday at www.bebo.com/acrosstheline

Check you later!

We're off to South by Southwest in Texas next week so there's lots of last minute planning going on at ATL TV Towers. You can see the results of our manic filming on Easter Monday, but first a heads up that Monday's ATL TV is going out at 11.20 on BBC Two Northern Ireland because of some drama thing.

So if you're the type that likes to be curled up in your bed by then, make sure you set your videos / Sky + boxes!

Later!

Here's what we've got lined up for you lovelies:

won as part of their prize, and we show the video in full.
* Dr Rigsy gets to know Canadian singer-songwriter twins Tegan + Sara
* Eyebrowy give us a potted history of Ash (it involves vomit)

And the usual Gang of Four and a great archive piece.

Don't forget to tune in!

Everyone is (pretending to) work feverishly hard to get Programme 3 ready for broadcast on Monday night. Hit of the week has been our interview with Tegan and Sara yesterday – they couldn’t have been nicer OR funnier. AND they signed a cd for our producer, so they’ve been elevated to the ATL TV office’s hall of fame... Anyone at the gig last night?

Hey guys and gals,

We can now reveal that the last programme in this series of ATL TV will be coming to you from Austin, Texas as the ATL TV team head off to South by Southwest - only the biggest music showcase / industry event in the entire world!

We'll be following bands from NI as they go out there and do their showcases and party for a week in the state capital, for a programme to be broadcast on Easter Monday - that's March 24th.

Have you been to SxSW? Got any tips for bands we should see or parties that we shouldn't miss?

Get in touch and let us know - send us a message or contact us at atltv@bbc.co.uk!

We'll be persuading or gently coercing ;) Rigsy to be posting a video diary up here every day we're out in Texas, which you won't see on the telly - a Bebo exclusive really! So check back here for that from 12th March.

We're dropping like flies this week....643 Tage her
 
Boo - we're all suffering here at ATL towers with a big dose of that horrible virus that's going around. First of all Rigsy had it last week, then it's spread to one of the Producers this week who says he feels like he has a small army of nasties jumping up and down in his throat all the time. We're all worried about getting it next!

Any tips on how to get rid of it quickly?!!
