Capital Summertime Ball 2024

[huckerby6]

Wet start at Glasto this year. Moyles sounds amused by the whole thing even though it sounds like a terrible mess. The BBC homepage has now on air Chris Moyles 10 - When? which I thought was a nice touch.

Could be interesting if they only manage to use 2 daytime DJs during the day

[Jono]

Was amusing whilst it lasted

[helen]

it ALWAYS used to rain at glasto anyway!, the stage sunk one year when mark and the boy lard played as the shirehorses! :roll:

[Jono]

Moyles very funny at Glastonbury this afternoon with Vernon.

i'll defintely watching all of that, i'm a glastonbury junkie. LOL can't wait for Hayseed Dixie.

[Laurie]

Hayseed Dixie rock! (En mis opiniones anyways...) I love Lauren Laverne, good to see they've got a decent XFM representative as well as Radio1 ones. White Stripes rocked last night! Jack is so talented, but i really had an urge to push back his hair from his face...it started to annoy me after a while..!

Laurie xx

[Jono]

Jo Whiley & Sara Cox seem a bit disorganised. Their mics are still on throughout the performances and the songs keep cutting out.

Ah, modern technology

[demonhorse]

I'm just listening again to Jo Whiley from yesterday, and the volume on that seems all over the place too.

first time I've really bothered to listen again to Moyles that I've missed too.. he held the fort quite well.

[Jono]

Yup.

Scott and Dave fell a bit flat on the face because they messed up the opening link which was pre-recorded and they then had to admit it.

Although I have to say I've heard the same song twice - Kaiser Chiefs 'Everyday I love you less and less' twice in the last two hours.

[Fish Heads]

Haha, what happened, I missed it?

[Jono]

Not too sure, but they were with some place who use scraps of metal to make music, and they were going to try it out themselves, and there was also a piece about asking them what the point was of the metal and they played it in the wrong order.

[Jono]

So what's everyone's opinion been of the Radio 1 coverage and the overall event?

[Mr_Quincy]

lauren lavern is a total mong i cant stand her. other than that ok what ive seen on the telly but i havent been arsed to listen to much

[Jono]

I'm very much in to the festival this year. The BBC Two coverage goes on too late for me to sit around and watch it, I thought Lauren Lavern was a strange choice for BBC TV but the others seem okay.

It's good to have a mix of late night DJs and day time DJs together, because normally I wouldn't listen to them. My mum seemed pleased to hear Annie Nightingale on the air during the day. And shifting the DJs around each day makes the festival go a lot quicker.

[michaelRJ]

Top notch coverage from the BBC, the presenters on TV and Radio including Lauren Laverne who i think is unfairly criticised by some people. However it isn't the same without the late, great John Peel, i certainly mss him presenting it but the presenters are doing a good job.

Coldplay's version of 'Can't get you out of my head' was great, not as good as Kylie's Original but still very good.

[Mr_Quincy]

its making me feel a bit old for it now watching the coverage on tv when i see the crowd shots all the people look about 17

[Jono]

lol, cameras work wonders

[demonhorse]

I thought the camera was meant to ADD years, not take away..... or is that pounds?

[Mr_Quincy]

both probably

[Jono]

Highlights tonight on Steve Lamacq's show.

[demonhorse]

Heard FolkFace on Moyles and Mills today, class.
