Proof read

For those not in the know, BBC Radio 1, are bringing their Big Weekend Festival to Dundee. Should be a good event for the area. I’m certainly looking forward to working it. A few days ago I signed up to the mailing list so I could get the latest information direct from the horses’ mouth. Shame they can’t employ someone to proof read what they are sending to 1000’s of people. I frankly expected better from Auntie

Hello from all of us at Radio 1.

We've been very busy setting up Radio 1's Big Weekend.
We've confirmed most of the artists and the line-up is
looking very good.  We cannot tell you who they are yet
but expect some big stars from the UK and America as well
as cool new bands.

Everyone we talk to in Dundee is very excited about the
weekend.  As well as taking over Camperdown Park we've
got plans a big dance night in the city itself.  In the
run up the weekend Colin and Edith are going to tour
around Scotland too.

Make sure you are listening to Radio 1 on Monday 24
April when we will announce the line up and give you
more information about how to get tickets.

Do you live in Dundee or have you been there?  We want
to hear from you.  We want loads of info, recommendations,
photos and video of Dundee on our website.  If you have
a blog and you’ve wrote about Dundee send us a link.  If
you'd taken photos and they are online send us the link
them or upload them to Flickr and add them to our group
(http://www.flickr.com/groups/radio1bigweekend/).

What we’d really like is short videos introducing us to
Dundee.  If you can film your favourite place or thing
about Dundee send it in. You can upload them to a website
and send the URL or email us the video.

We are also looking for really good photographers and
music writers to come to Radio 1’s Big Weekend and cover
the event in their own way.  If you are interested and
write a blog send us a link.  If you have a photographer
and have photos online send us a link too.

Email all your links and details to radio1.bigweekend@bbc.co.uk.

Please remember we are unable to answer individual questions
about the event, line up and tickets but you’ll find out
all you need to know on our FAQs page:

Don't forget to listen to Radio 1 and check the website on Monday 24 April when all will be revealed.
