It does amuse me she says the nearest music venue for big bands is Manchester. That's forty minutes away according to The AA. Even here in Norfolk if you have to travel over an hour to Norwich, and still the bigger bands don't come here.

Was interesting to hear JK and Joel flirting with Andy from Razorlight...

Mutya Buena doesn't sound too bad doing her acoustic. What are people doing today? Live coverage, waiting for BBC Three, watching online, or listening to Radio 1?

The Fratellis were great on the interactive. Tune in to Radio 1 from 9pm for Scott and Nihal with the highlights and more. Shame the audio on the digital feed keeps getting distorted.

I'm on an alien computer just for a short time - today was a very good experience. I enjoyed Kasabian especially, and seeing Vernon and Moyles doing a double act. also Annie Mac on the Outdoor Stage. :D

I've got some pictures but can't upload until I get home on Monday, you'll have loads by then.

Oh and there was Frozen Indigo Angel stuff still going on. I emailed pictures to Denchfield. Sorry I know not many people are interested...he claims to be there but I haven't seen him yet, A strange man did speak to me about it and give me an email and a mobile number to contact Paul, so the game seems to be still going on.

Saw Zane Lowe and Westwood in person too :D

Can't wait to see The View tomorrow!!! :D :D

UM is a nice place

Hello There,

Does anyone know the name of the voiceover for almost all the ads for the Big Weekend. It's a guy with a quite strong accent from i don't know where.

Here is a clip from his voice : http://www.radios-fr.com/bigweekend.mp3

Thanks,

Alex.

That link has too many DJ voices to know who you're on about. A better clip would help.

I am inclined, however, to say Zane Lowe.

Really liking all this radio 1 online stuff for the big weekend, i feel so overwhelmed!

Particularly from Jo's blog:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/bigweekend/2007/diary/

Its videos GALORE in there. And look at all those stars! Like i said in another thread, i came into tonight, turned on the tv and found Beth Ditto with some poor sod buried in her boobs. Caught the end of the scissor sisters though, i liked them. Particularly as soon as Jake got his top off... :whistle:

    • I must admit a broad smile to myself when I got in the car just after 1pm today and realised I'd timed it perfectly to avoid Danny! Just listened back to that earlier link, just horrific and what's worse is that Danny doesn't seem to have improved even vaguely since the first show. As Greg20 said, the show is being driven by a producer which makes the mess even less excusable.
    • The shows surely being driven for him so all he has to do is talk between the tracks and he can’t get even get that right 
    • I thought the same to that comment, the license fee is going on me babes 
    • What with Jamie Laing, now him. Is it time for a new Head of the station?
    • He also just said coming up we have brand new segment, I thought they were a band 🤣 how did this man get on Radio 1? Aled needs his head testing. It’s an insult people who deserve to be on the radio 
    • Of all the times not mention capital it's probably now? Jordan is flying on breakfast with chris & sian and there's a presenter on friday and saturday that doesn't know who a main r1 artist, tldp are. Mentions capital which surely has to be a big no no given recent events and then says the licence fee goes to me. Talk about vom. We can't have it on here no more as it's that unlistenable and I'm about to switch back for m&m, but this is a Maya Jama x50 level mess of a show. Forget fading the microphone down, the entire show needs fading down
    • As positives go, at least Danny said what the last song played was and upcoming song played was. Plus I guess in that link are perhaps ideas for content (asking listeners to come up with bands from things around them, things that have happened to them this week). That's where's the positives end. It comes across as no thought has gone into what Danny will say next. It gives me proper flashbacks to some Jamie Laing links (especially that one show where he was unexpectedly solo). It's ironic that for all the duos and trios on the station - the one show and DJ that is positively crying out for another DJ to help show them the ropes is left all solo. At least with Jamie Laing they learnt their lesson and he's not been left solo since.
    • How he was just faded out at the end of the link reminded me of the Oscars music fading you out 
    • RPReplay_Final1713612277.mp4   You’re welcome
    • At a time when Radio 1 has surely lost listeners to Capital at Breaktast you’d be trying to protect the station so people switch back.  Certainly yesterday I didn’t switch back to Radio 1 at all.
    • Was abysmal…Surely Danny can’t be a contender for anything permanent when the new schedules are locked in I.e Matt and Mollies slot 
    • Alexandra Burke creating the phrase 'Elephant In The Room' whooooooooo
    • Zane Versus.... Whooooooooo. Do You Do Fridays? WhooOOOooo.  
    • The Capital Breakfast show is right up my street so far - such a fun listen. You've both been great on Radio 1 and are sounding excellent again on Capital A few quickfire questions: You've both been part of some great pairings on radio and on podcast - what goes into making a duo or trio work and sound great on air? Also, Chris - were there ever any discussions about you moving over to Radio 2 with Scott or had the Global offer already come first? Also how do you both go about managing that split between your radio 'you' and the private 'you'? You share a lot on air but also there's some understandably some stuff you keep private (famously Jordan doesn't 'talk about those things'). And how do you make sure if you're having a miserable day or are a bit low that it doesn't come across too much on air?    
    • What a nightmare link at 11.15am this morning. Spent 30 seconds waffling about the name of The Last Dinner Party as if he’d never heard it before, then started mentioning Capital and the license fee, and how it’s been used to pay for him to be there, and was then cut off by the start of the next song.
