Computer

Recommended Posts

Not sure if I can cope with Zane first thing. Mind you, I probably wont surface till after 10 anyway............ ;)

ahh so you'll be waking up with Fearne and next door's ginger pussy?

which I mean she's obviously bound to talk about... :P

(or is someone also covering for her on Friday?)

Zane and Matt Smith absolutely nailed it.

And not a playlist in site!

I expect Zane to be the next R1 breakfast host when Moyles finally goes and a bloody good one at that.

Can't really see him going from his evening slot straight to Breakfast though... and he wouldn't really fit into a regular daytime slot.

I really don't as Zane doesn't like playing the playlist and has other things to do. Plus he's off for about a month every year and with Zane and Scott competing for amount of days off sick, the breakfast and Drivetime hosts would be off an awful lot together.

I really enjoyed the show this morning, but I think it should be a once in a blue moon thing. However, Zane is very witty and very funny. If he didn't mind going mainstream, I think he'd do a very successful show. I wonder whether Zane would want to though.

he's not doing a linkup with Jake Humphrey for Grand Prix coverage like Moyles usually does the Friday before a race this year... gutted.

Yeah kinda missed it... Don't see why Zane couldn't of done one, maybe it would of lacked the convo and laughs ?

Maybe Zane just ain't interested in F1, Moyles seems to have actually become a fan... (hopefully NOT one of those Gloryhunter Lewis Hamilton fans)

Zane is a small part of the F1 coverage on the BBC he has voiced over some introduction packages to the tracks so even if he is not a F1 fan it would have been nice to see him chat to Jake

Zane's show was just music then Matt Smith chat leading to the versus. Would have seemed a bit out of place to cut away for some F1 chat.

Anyway, I thought the show was excellent regardless. Really refreshing.

This is the difference between Moyles and Zane, Moyles has to interview all kinds of people and has to sound reasonably interested, whilst Zane is 100% music, obviously it was a one off show so he could have done it given he is a tiny part of the coverage but it's the reason he will never be a daytime DJ, can you imagine him interviewing Lewis Hamilton, Holly Willoughby, Louis Spence, Jason Manford, Jamie Oliver etc. and playing quiz shows like carpark catchprase and OWO and talking about what was on TV last night....which is mainly what you have to do to be on breakfast (or drive).

As for his holiday doesn't he has a month off every year which is less than Moyles albeit because he only works half as much as him.

About the show....Listened to bits of it on iplayer it was a great show, you got to respect what he's doing:)

    • Nikita Kanda is covering the weekend mid afternoon slot a few times over the next few weeks, as is Ore.
    • No sign of James Cusack at Big Weekend. Ore Olukoga and Nikita Kanda were there. Will they be part of the weekend line-up over summer? Even Joel Mitchell and Tinea Taylor made it. 
    • I don't know about that but somebody's messed up with the dates on the lanyards this year, they're all the wrong date!
    • Is big weekend the only place to get long boi merch? It's sold out! I'd love to have got my hands on some. 
    • Considering the price of some festival event for a small portions can be pricey but it isn’t too bad that could get it with chips and other roast dinner bits. I think when you are billed as a touring high profile DJ there’s always a risk of playing out familiar tracks from other artists in the mix. Especially on a line-up with Chase and Status and Rudimental who will be playing pretty much all tracks written, produced and released as their DJing names.   
    • Matt & Mollie I believe (and on the radio occassional studio bits from Jack Saunders, Sam & Danni and Maia Beth).
    • Obvs - Scott 2-4 and Trevor Nelson are also in 82A
    • Who presented Party Anthems on stage?
    • Lots of adverts for Matt and Mollie around the place, alongside the rest of the weekday lineup, but no mention of Dean and/or Vicky. Although I notice those two are doing the photobooth today, as is Danny Beard…
    • Yesterday was excellent pretty much all day. You can tell a lot of work has gone into the festival and the set up was really good. The ground is fine for anyone worried, I wore old trainers and they’re still fine today.    Merchandise is available for some high prices. If you’re going for Longboi merch get it early as they sold out within the first couple of hours.    The photo booth is also good and we met Vick, Katie and Jamie for a few seconds and got a photo. If you’re doing this get there 15-20 minutes before the advertised time as they’re only 30 minute slots. It’s right next to the main stage so you can see everything going on there from the queue anyway. Most of the acts we saw were excellent. Becky Hill and Ella Henderson were brilliant live. Rudimental and Chase and Status were absolutely incredible. Nathan Dawe wasn’t great, played 3 of his own songs then dodgy remixes of Marvin Gaye, Dolly Parton etc. Went to Dimension halfway through which was must better. Saw 15-20 minutes of Eric Prydz which wasn’t really my thing but his staging was excellent.  The DJ sets in between everything were pretty good, especially Matt and Mollie and Charlie Hedges. Sam and Danni were a welcome change as they played indie anthems for a while although I think they may have just been the pre recorded anthems they usually play on weekends (still better than Nathan Dawe). Food was good, but pricey - £15 for my main meal of roast pork, stuffing, chips and Yorkshire pudding. I was surprised they were selling multipacks of Madri and bottles of wine, especially the latter as people were walking around swigging from glass bottles in the middle of the crowd then dumping them on the floor… the rubbish was a mess at the end of the night. Probably one of the best live music events I’ve ever been to, a real credit to the station. 
    • While there were some technical issues (tracks temporarily cutting out, mics not working at first for radio listeners, 'studio team' sometimes jumping in at quite random intervals) Party Anthems on stage seemed to work well and I sort of wonder why they haven't done it before. I guess it depends on when gates open but if gates open around 1/2pm then no excuse not to do it- it's a DJ set which they have loads of across the weekend and acts as a warm-up so the crowd are hot for the first main act.
    • They mentioned on air that it's before Joel Corry's set.
    • When is the set for Greg and Tom? I’m having trouble getting on to Insta and Google is not helping.
