I've just had a crazy idea- Remember Hide and Seek last summer? Maybe they're doing something like that again at the location of the Big Weekend

Matt said earlier it’s something new, not hide and seek, because something texted saying is it hide and seek.

Seems more realistic than the marathon show 

Moyles announced it weeks before and Scott and Chris did the week before (found out Here) 

Greg and Grimmy hide and seek last year was the best radio I’ve listend to all year hands down. 

Greg solo would be good but perhaps he would have a celeb with him. 

EDIT: just seen a post saying it’s not hide and seek.

but still could be something similar maybe Monopoly on the Radio maybe  lol

The tick tock makes me think it’s a marathon show or lolathon.  How Scott’s involved I’m not sure.

Those artists are a massive deal, and have been a big part of Radio 1.  The only WHOOOOO on the lineup is Mylie Cyrus.  And the current playlist doesnt have every single one of those artists on it, although it has previously, but if it hadn’t why would they play big weekend.

[OohErr]

I notice they're charging £18 a ticket (+£4.50 booking fee) this year. Not Europe's biggest free ticketed music festival anymore then. Although that's still really cheap for what it is.

Miley hasn’t a had a hit since 2013. So don’t get why she’s playing

[OohErr]

Haha do you even listen to Radio 1 @anothernerd? Catfish are on all the time. Kathleen, Pacifier, Cocoon, Soundcheck, Longshot ring a bell? Chris interviewed them at Big Weekend once and asked Van McCann the lead singer whether he was excited for Foo Fighters and he said "not really"? And Miley's had a few since then - Malibu in 2017 and Nothing Breaks Like A Heart, that one's always on at the moment.

Of course I listen! Seems to ring a bell now @OohErr. And I forget about the 2017 hit.. That was a good record. I forget she sang nothing breaks like an heart.

Although it was pointed out to me Biggest Weekend also had a charge, probably not a surprise in this day and age of BBC cuts.

Nothing Breaks Like A Heart is a huge hit.  But yeah she isn’t exactly current these days.

I paid circa £60 including fees to see the 1975 and Pale Waves (and others) at Glasgow Summer Sessions, so yeah dead cheap in comparison to seeing the same acts elsewhere

Spot on. Big Weekend still insanely good value.

Well I'll be going, but the trains to Middlesbrough from Norwich (even London) are astronomically priced!
