I assumed the same too. Well, that was what I thought when mine wasn't up there too. :P

I think it is. I assume they would be worried they'd have to pay for the backing music if it's not the rights of that person.

Aah, I love these songs. I really want to go and see the musical now ...

This one is Take That though. Just in case you weren't aware ;)

Well, it'd all be through PRS. I believe the beeb have a policy of allowing 30 seconds of songs permanently in audio/video clips.

However, if the music is used in something, it may be different. Top Gear have most of their films up for good on their site, and they have music in them.

Hmm. My parents are going to try and get me to eat. I really hope this isn't going to make me ill again.

There needs to be a Laura's Diary song really. Seeing as she's involved in the production meeting.

I'd quite like Beccy to do an Alesha Dixon style song. Sounds like she could do some of these Yeah Yeah Yeah and 2, 3, 4s! I bet she's quite the mover!

Glad I know how to say these sentences. Now I know why the British accents in American movies are a bit... bad.

Ooh yes, Phantom Planet and California. This is what I want to hear! :)

Do you think she can do one for names? Perhaps she could focus on Graham...

Cool Dizzee Rascal introduction. Think they're going to have to keep modifying this song to keep it sounding fresh. Methinks it could end up the Rihanna-anna-anna of the summer.

Don't mention Zane Lowe's hair today. He's in a mood about it seems:

zanelowe While I'm moaning, my hair is f^£$%^in' awful today. Inbetween a flat top and a quiff. Its half Slider, half Ronson. 3 minutes ago from web

Hmm. Surprised Beccy is so observant. "You've been infected by a trojan worm!"

Yeah I remember Scott making calls to the people in Russia about a scam. I seem to also recall doing those stupid chain-letter things. God knows why I even considered that.

Well I never knew how to speak English correctly then I must find this person and learn how to speak

Yeah to be fair I'm awful at English. Ellie pointed out yesterday I go around saying "we'll play it by air". I don't know it's "play it by ear". Bloody Norfolk.

Saw You Me At Six at the Waterfront back last year. Thought they were kinda generic and nothing special. Now that they're on the radio, my opinion hasn't changed.

They seem to have a big Twitter following from what I've seen.

Are all the team's mothers really gullible? Maybe they could scam their parents for money to get Wing to come over the musical. I bet scammers are looking for Huxtables in Taunton as we speak.

Haha - guess my pants size. It's up there with the days of Rate My Listener and guessing the the wab size. How old school!

It's up there with horse studies really isn't it.

Actually, it incorporates English language, psychology and sociology, with a bit media studies thrown in for good measure. I've learnt some quite cool stuff.

Also, you slag it, but it's near enough to what you're doing your degree in. ;)

    • Nikita Kanda is covering the weekend mid afternoon slot a few times over the next few weeks, as is Ore.
    • No sign of James Cusack at Big Weekend. Ore Olukoga and Nikita Kanda were there. Will they be part of the weekend line-up over summer? Even Joel Mitchell and Tinea Taylor made it. 
    • I don't know about that but somebody's messed up with the dates on the lanyards this year, they're all the wrong date!
    • Is big weekend the only place to get long boi merch? It's sold out! I'd love to have got my hands on some. 
    • Considering the price of some festival event for a small portions can be pricey but it isn’t too bad that could get it with chips and other roast dinner bits. I think when you are billed as a touring high profile DJ there’s always a risk of playing out familiar tracks from other artists in the mix. Especially on a line-up with Chase and Status and Rudimental who will be playing pretty much all tracks written, produced and released as their DJing names.   
    • Matt & Mollie I believe (and on the radio occassional studio bits from Jack Saunders, Sam & Danni and Maia Beth).
    • Obvs - Scott 2-4 and Trevor Nelson are also in 82A
    • Who presented Party Anthems on stage?
    • Lots of adverts for Matt and Mollie around the place, alongside the rest of the weekday lineup, but no mention of Dean and/or Vicky. Although I notice those two are doing the photobooth today, as is Danny Beard…
    • Yesterday was excellent pretty much all day. You can tell a lot of work has gone into the festival and the set up was really good. The ground is fine for anyone worried, I wore old trainers and they’re still fine today.    Merchandise is available for some high prices. If you’re going for Longboi merch get it early as they sold out within the first couple of hours.    The photo booth is also good and we met Vick, Katie and Jamie for a few seconds and got a photo. If you’re doing this get there 15-20 minutes before the advertised time as they’re only 30 minute slots. It’s right next to the main stage so you can see everything going on there from the queue anyway. Most of the acts we saw were excellent. Becky Hill and Ella Henderson were brilliant live. Rudimental and Chase and Status were absolutely incredible. Nathan Dawe wasn’t great, played 3 of his own songs then dodgy remixes of Marvin Gaye, Dolly Parton etc. Went to Dimension halfway through which was must better. Saw 15-20 minutes of Eric Prydz which wasn’t really my thing but his staging was excellent.  The DJ sets in between everything were pretty good, especially Matt and Mollie and Charlie Hedges. Sam and Danni were a welcome change as they played indie anthems for a while although I think they may have just been the pre recorded anthems they usually play on weekends (still better than Nathan Dawe). Food was good, but pricey - £15 for my main meal of roast pork, stuffing, chips and Yorkshire pudding. I was surprised they were selling multipacks of Madri and bottles of wine, especially the latter as people were walking around swigging from glass bottles in the middle of the crowd then dumping them on the floor… the rubbish was a mess at the end of the night. Probably one of the best live music events I’ve ever been to, a real credit to the station. 
    • While there were some technical issues (tracks temporarily cutting out, mics not working at first for radio listeners, 'studio team' sometimes jumping in at quite random intervals) Party Anthems on stage seemed to work well and I sort of wonder why they haven't done it before. I guess it depends on when gates open but if gates open around 1/2pm then no excuse not to do it- it's a DJ set which they have loads of across the weekend and acts as a warm-up so the crowd are hot for the first main act.
    • They mentioned on air that it's before Joel Corry's set.
    • When is the set for Greg and Tom? I’m having trouble getting on to Insta and Google is not helping.
