We've been asked to play the Essex Fm Roadshow this Sunday.
£400 for 30 mins in front of a couple of thousand people.
Now, my problem is this:

I despise local radio, Essex FM especially for churning out the same old pop noise and generally suffering from regional radio apathy. Do I refuse to do this, out of principle

Or

Do I agree, we take the money and use it towards studio time, equipment etc, you never know who might be listening and any press is good press etc?

They wanted us to mime and we point blank refused unless half-way through the song, me and the bass player switched.
So, at least we get to do it live.

But..Essex Fm?...it's gonna be screaming kids and Essex folks there to watch the station dancers to their stuff.

So, integrity and dignity or £400 and some "regional" radio exposure?

Not being funny, but I'd have thought at the moment you need as much coverage as possible.

I say swallow your pride, and go for it.

Wonderful...
