Radio 1 DJ Greg James will be talking to students in Leicester today about his rise to fame and how to make it in the industry. He will be at De Montfort University as part of the national Student Radio Association conference, which is being hosted by DMU and its student-run radio Demon FM. It will be attended by hundreds of students running radio stations at their own universities around the country. The DJ, who presents Radio 1's drive time show, tweeted: "Leicester! Lock up your daughters and nans - I'm on the way to the Student Radio Conference. Wheeeeeey lads." Other radio giants who have attended the conference this week include Ben Cooper, controller of BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 1Xtra, Comedy Dave (Dave Vitty), director of comedy on The Chris Moyles Show, who also teams up with Mark Chapman aka 'Chappers' to present weekend shows on Radio 1. Tom Williams, vice-president media and communications for De Montfort Students' Union, said: "It's really exciting that Demon FM is hosting the National Student Radio Conference this year. We put a bid together against other student radio stations and to win just shows how far Demon FM has come in a short space of time. "Being able to showcase what DMU has to offer to hundreds of other students, as well as the leaders of the UK radio industry is a great opportunity. "Demon Media has been going through a transitional period over the last 12 months and the conference is the result of a huge effort from everyone involved. This is our most successful year ever and the conference is the icing on top of a huge cake."
