Capital Summertime Ball 2024

Apparently, Chris from Scott's show is on Gemma Cairney's show on Saturday (16th February) wearing outfits between the songs which you can watch on the website between 7am-10am. Sounds fun.

I was a bit unconvinced by AAA this week. Don't radio 1 listeners get to vote for British Breakthrough Act at the Brits every year. Didn't really understand what it had to do with Access All Areas.

I am enjoying the tweets from the playlist meeting although directly tweeting the artists who are they snubbing seems a bit cruel!

[Tom.]

Yeah, pretty much the only thing this week has been voting for the brits, which they do every year.

[Harkinson]

Well.. Yes, they do do it every year but this year it's all the only one voted by the public (and Radio 1). Normally, there's 3 (for R1, Radio 2 & Capital).

Just heard the advert for the Brits show with Greg + Jameela. Apparently this is also part of Acess All Areas months and Scott hasn't done it for years already...

They would say the play the same sort of trail last year if it was AAA, but it wasnt, so they didnt...! I dont really get your point?!

[Harkinson]

There's going to be special music videos of some of the DJs tonight on Dan & Phil's show! They include Scott Mills & Jameela Jamil, Matt Edmondson & Huw Stephens, Aled from The Surgery & Mollie from The Saturdays (Random??) and Phil Taggart & Alice Levine.
