Aled
You may have heard Chris this morning reveal that for the 6th and final week of Radio 1’s 6 Weeks of Summer it’s us that’s going to Brighton! Yay! You may have also heard that we’re taking the Foo Fighters with us! Yay again!

070706_dave_grohl_125.jpg
If you wanted tickets to the uber exclusive Foo Fighters gig this Friday– tough, they’ve gone. They went up for grabs at midday and ran out minutes later. You can still hear it (obviously) on Radio 1. If you want to come to our Saturday indoor beach party then you’re in luck. You can register for a ticket and then if you’re picked at random we’ll see you there!!!

For those of you who won’t be coming to either the Foo Fighter’s gig or our Saturday indoor beach party then why don’t you express your frustration by devising ways of ruining the exciting weekend for us? You could do this by coming up with Life’s A scenarios to bestow on the various members of the team (excluding me of course!). In any case the others need some evilness as most of the suggestions on the show this morning were either aimed at me or involved other team members doing forfeits WITH me!

Just reply to this blog with your suggestions and I’ll send them via Chris and the rest of the team!

If you’re lucky enough I’ll see you in Brighton :)

Hi Aled,
I was at a fayre in London on sunday and was handed a leaflet asking for help and I wondered if Radio 1 could help too?
This is what the leaflet said:
Action Required:
MONKEY IN A CAGE By Maria Daines.
Dear friends,
This powerful anti-vivisection protest song "monkey in a cage" has been written with a view to recommending it to animal lovers worlwide. Our aim is to see this reach the UK Top 10 music chart.
PLEASE HELP US!
Please download Monkey in a cage between the 20th and 25th august 2007 from:
http:/www.indiestore.com/miacdownload (a charge of 79p will apply)
All download charges will be donated to the welsh primate rescue charity Cefn-yr-Erw.

Spread the word and pass this on to everyone you know. thankyou for your support.

Im passing this on to you, dont know if you ever read these and I know its nothing to do with the show (keep up the good work guys - love the show btw) but if anyone cares can you pass it on,

Thanks!

Another has to count all the grains of sand of brighton beach, while people randomly throw buckets of water at them!

A nice enough torture.

Everyone swap football teams. Each member of the Moyles Work Gang should go dressed in the kit of football team supported by another member. Occasionally they should also sing any of that teams chants on stage and generally rant about how great they are.

So
Chris - Chelsea kit
Dave - Leeds United
Rachel - Everton
Dominic - Kidderminster Harriers
Carrie - Liverpool

Have fun,

Aled,

That trick with Sky+ you mentioned doesn't work!

So you're watching a program, press 'backup' and then '4', right?
When I press 'backup' I get the Sky+ program listing. If I go into the programme and press '4' it starts watching from 4 mins in, not 4 mins on from where I was...

Hey chris!!

one of the crew should have to dress up as an adult baby (nappy and all) like those wierd fettish people and that person are only allowed to eat baby food and rusks and can only drink milk. Someone will also obviously have to dress as the mother and can't leave the baby alone at all and has to tend to his every need!!!

How about the person who is kicked out of the foozzzz gig has to then go back in when it's all finished and pick up all the litter.

obviously no one will know any of the special words but they will be obvious ones like Brighton (have chris prance around the stage), Foo Fighters (dave start sparing on his own in a Rocky style) etc,

Howabout, at the foo fighters gig, the person who has life's a bitch has too stand outside the concert acting as security checking that everybody has a ticket. When they all go in (the crowd that is!), the "bitch" has to clean up the area outside of any rubbish, get drinks for the other security, and help organise the safe departure of the crowd and stop any gatecrashers from getting in. (In other words, they know there's a fantastic concert going on inside and they won't get to see it!) The "beech" stands right next to the stage, the best view of the house, supplied with champagne and nibbles. The loser also has to drive the winner to and from the gig, try and find parking (legally) and be outside the gig before the doors open.

Instead I have devised a plan to take over the world with millions of Chris Moyles and Mr Blobby look-a-like creatures I have created and they will march on brighton singing Locomotion by Kylie and drown out the sounds of anything else happening in Brighton!!!
