THE SOUND BARGE

Most Played Band

This page is here to celebrate the band that we play more than any other.

In Show 34 (01/06/05) Gary and Dan weren't about, and so Gary put together a compilation featuring only a handful of bands. The show was mostly of tracks by Ash. It is for this reason that Ash have now overtaken The Eels as the Most Played Band.
