Irish DJs set to spin their way into record books

The plan is to break the world record for the longest playing DJ by playing for 74 hours. The attempt will be made by local radio station hosts at venues in their own cities on May 22.

They will only be allowed a 15-minute break every eight hours if their efforts to gain a place in the Guinness Book of Records are to be successful. “It’s great to be involved in something fun and exciting and have tangible benefits for the charities involved,” said Galway Bay FM’s Jimmy Norman. He will be doing his bit at the Galway Radisson SAS Hotel for Operation Rudolph’s nominated charities, The Chernobyl Children’s Project, the 2003 Special Olympic World Summer Games and The Alzheimer Society of Ireland.
