Chris has got a big announcement to make on monday 25th - looks like another big weekend is on the way....

Where do you want it to be?

Mine? Reading cos then i'll be able too go...But with the recent run of big weekends being up north, i'm not hopeful

[Quincy]

down south hopefully.

[Fathomer]

you've got the Reading Festival

[Joe Boy]

you've got the Reading Festival

Yeah, and Northerners have got Leeds. Somewhere near London or on the South Coast would be perfect, cos there hasn't been a major Radio 1 event there for some time.

[bliss]

he could come up to northumberland but 1. theres nowt to do and 2. theres nowt to do

[Fathomer]

down south you have that T4 thing, O2 Wireless, every major charity concert event eg. Live8, Brighton Festival, Glastonbury, Homelands, Big Gay Out, Reading, Bestival, Isle of Wright, Global Gathering and Boardmasters.

northumberland would be a good idea plus stunning countryside if you like that kind of thing

[Quincy]

most of that is in london. that is not down south. its like me saying bristol is up north

[DemonHorse]

Nottingham. maybe Derby but Nottingham would be easier to get to for me, and has more suitably large places to hold it.

[Sidders]

Well they've done Leicester loads of times, so I doubt it'll be there. It'll probably be Hull.

[Jono]

Norfolk would be nice.

[Quincy]

wow. in some kind of crazy coinsidence everyone wants it to be where they live.

[bliss]

up here in northumberland we have brilliant pubs which moyles would love.

[Sidders]

They should go to Hinckley.

[Uglybob]

they should do it in oldham with black eyed peas, lemar, akon, the game and estelle

[Michael!!!]

Manchester again!!! hopefully.

[Mcqueen_]

I thought the last one was the last one of the year?

[DC]

Dosen't bother me, becuase if people want to go, they will travel.

[Jono]

Well we had one last September didn't we. Suppose if it's announced shortly it'll give them about a month and a half of ads and trailers. Great...

[Gaspode_The_Wonder_Dog]

they should do it in oldham with black eyed peas, lemar, akon, the game and estelle

yes lets insinuate all people from oldham are racist.

been subject to religious bigotry lately bob?

[x-ema-x]

i hope for another one big weekend soon i could of gone to sunderland bt i was ill =(

[Sidders]

I thought the last one was the last one of the year?

It's not necessarily another OBW.

[Mcqueen_]

That was kinda my point.

[Nicky]

I hope not. The events normally good, but Radio1 becomes unbearable for a couple of weeks while they plug the living crap out of it.

[Minnie the Minx]

So what was the big announcement? Was there one?

Basically, a new festival where the idea is to have all the best bands from live events earlier in the year. If done properly then it should have a great lineup. Will probably be quite mainstream though.

6 tickets allowed per applicant aswell. So expect them to be all over ebay by this time next week.
