Lucky you! I really want to see them but I can't decide where. It's always Shieffield or Birmingham but never Nottingham.

My two best friends are coming to see me tomorrow and we're going to the Summer Pary and the afterparty. Good times :)

I'm just assuming I'll be in London in November. Can't see where else I'll be. And I've heard lots of good things about Muse live. A few of my friends went to see them in Nottingham in November 2006, sucks that they're not playing Nottingham again really.

Summer Party should be really good, I like the line-up. The drinks tokens are a rip-off though. It was good last year although the weather was good then, it might be a bit less fun if it rains.

My exams are over :D find out the results 2 weeks from today :confused: really don't know how that'll go. There was a question in the exam today that was basically asking what Karl Marx would think of the current financial crisis. So all that insomnia time spent listening to Radio 4 really paid off because I have great current affairs knowledge.

I've also heard their live performance is something you should experience. One of my closest friends is going to Sheffield Uni this year, I have another good friend at Birmingham Uni and my best friend is in London so it's a tough decision. I think the guy in Birmingham would love to see them but still, it would make my choice much easier if they were coming to Nottingham.

I was very happy when they announced the Futureheads at the Summer Party - I've never seen them before so it should be good. I'm also looking forward to the Yeah You's, Ladyhawke, the Rakes and the Young Knives. It's a shame that Pendulum and Late of the Pier are only doing DJ sets but I've heard that Pendulum DJ sets are amazing so I guess it's good enough.

Isn't it the best feeling in the world when your exams are over! Well done on the financial crisis question. I really don't like the fact that we get our results in 2 weeks. It's too soon. I preferred it at A Level when you could just relax and forget about it as soon as your exams were over. I'm tempted not to open the envelope but I guess I need to know if I have to do any resits.

Yeah I am not looking forward to the results being the morning after my 21st birthday. Will be a very nervous birthday. I saw The Futureheads about a year ago at the Rescue Rooms, was very energetic (although my friend got punched for no apparent reason). The Rakes are also very energetic. I've not see the Young Knives but have been wanting to see them for ages.

I am feeling better than I was, am able to eat a bit more without feeling sick which is good.

I got my way with my year two timetable, after much arguing with my tutor. Hello 26 hours. :|

26 hours a week? Lucky you - I think I have 34 or something like that next year. This year I've had 36 hours a week. It's a lot, but I'm used to it now...

That's really good Heather. And congratulations Owen :)

Last night I had a funny night involving helping a male friend dress in a Cruella de Vil outfit. He went to some extreme lengths with the costume, including make-up, jewellery, fake nails and some fake cleavage. Had some other good fancy dress as well. Unfortunately not many bars on campus were open which kind of limited our bar crawl somewhat. Still had a laugh though. Oh and my cold is getting better, yesterday I spent the day in bed which has helped and I feel sniffly but otherwise ok now.

Instead of going to Glasgow tomorrow and spending the day with Rich then coming home in the evening I'm now going to Glasgow, spending the day with Rich then headed up to Dundee to stay with him until Saturday morning. Can't wait. :D

I am SO jealous of you. I'm not going to Glasgow until in 4½ months, and I really miss it :(

I passed my driving test!

Oh, great, congratulations! I haven't even started yet...

      Radio 2 Schedule Changes

      I must have missed that yesterday, sorry! Scott did make the same tongue in cheek comment on today's show about Rylan. It's a shame Rylan isn't the go to cover for Scott, I assume his commitments away from R2 prevent that. I enjoyed his last cover stint. Spoony is the go to stand in for the mid afternoon slot (he's covering again week after next while Scott's off getting married).   In that case, I think you're right!

      Not that last minute. Scott was talking about it on his own show yesterday, saying he and Rylan have a deal where they cover each other's shows but Rylan only covers Scott when he can be bothered!

      Sorry I should have been clearer, I meant daytime weekday. Weekend shows would count as a 'step up' from overnights for OJ.

      If we're counting the overnight slot, OJ Borg regularly covers weekend shows.

      The only weekday R2 DJ who would ever cover a weekend slot?!

      What I assume is a very last minute change... Scott Mills is in for Rylan today.

      Radio 1 Schedule Changes

      Radio 1 at Parklife will be presented by Vicky and Nat. Nat is currently listed to present her usual Sunday show on that weekend but I imagine that will change and someone else will be doing it instead. The Radio 1 presenters at Download will be Daniel P Carter, Jack Saunders, Alyx Holcombe and Nels Hylton.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      He’s definitely gotten better and the show has sounded fine this week. I think it been at its best when it’s been Katie and Jamie or Vick and Katie. Vick and Jamie are ok together, but I do think the show sounds better when it’s Vick and Katie and therefore I still don’t really understand the point of the trio.    Jamie is, however, a lot better than Danny Beard!

      The RAJAR coming on later this year reflecting later summer to autumn will be interesting to how it reflects Matt and Mollie in afternoons to the revised changes on radio 1’s new music slots and the schedule re-shuffling Radio 3 introducing a new slate of programmes. Then, later on this year have speech radio stations having domestic political coverage of the election but also America’s presidential election.

      Going Home with Vick, Katie and Jamie

      I actually caught snippets of today’s show, and I found it much better than the last time I listened. I have made it no secret that I like Jamie on the radio, I was surprised by how much I enjoyed Matt & him together last year. People have criticised him for not being relatable, but I have to agree with the comment above that I have always found him a naturally warm person to listen to. Maybe the going home set up was something that needed settling in and things are starting to take shape.  It must have been difficult for him joining an established duo in Vick & Katie to begin with.  Jamie was great on something songs today, fully engaged in the caller and sounded like a real presenter. Maybe he is doing as a lot of us hoped and really learning as he goes, how to do it properly.

      Agree with this. The anti-Jamie feeling was IMO quite influenced by the negativity around him replacing Jordan, since Jordan was exceptional and also universally loved. When people mention Danny and Jamie in the same sentence about bad hiring decisions I almost choke - Jamie may not be perfect but he's several leagues better than Danny already and has bags of potential. Danny is poor and has shown zero potential...

      Jamie started 4 March, and the figures only going up to 31 March, so it isn't reliable. But it has shown the numbers have dropped in afternoons compared to last quarter. It looks like it's Capital's gain.
