Ive just hhad a look at the Muse gig timetable and Chris isobviously going to the saturday night one.There is no reason why he cant travel back to London on the sunday. Wouldnt it be better for the whole team to do the show from London so you can launch the tour from there with maximum publicity,and leave on the tour bus together? Plus,Muse are doing a London concert in november anyway.http://www.soldouteventtickets.com/list ... certs/muse .I just point this out for your consideration,should you happen to read this.


PS are concert tickets usually as expensive as this? I couldnt possibly afford them!

Theres a bit of a problem with the Glasgow leg of the tour-it coincides with the Scotland-Holland world cup qualifier. Might want to put a gianmt tv screen in there or something! Mind you the way Scotland have been playing lately maybe most Scots would prefer to avoid the match!

For goodness sake, I don't often (if ever?) get cross on here, but to those of you banging on just listen to yourselves.

Whinge, whinge, whinge, moan, moan, moan, honestly you're like spoilt children not getting their own way and stamping their feet. The team clearly cannot be everywhere and have done their best to try and accommodate people, sadly that means some will miss out, even those that DO live near venues are not guaranteed a ticket. I live out in the wilds of Essex and will have to travel 50/60 miles to go to the London gig IF I'm lucky enough to get tickets. So what? Now, pick your toys up off the floor, pop them back in the pram and get over yourselves!

Oh and Bradcali, you're a chud.

That's a silly assumption, and not one that you have any security in, as you obviously know. dannimaria is correct on all counts.

Well said Dannimaria. There isn't one near me, but me moaning about it won't help. It's cool that the team are going out and about seeing people, they could just sit on there arses in the studio not bothering, but they're making the effort to do a tour. Thanks CMS team.

All I'm saying is that Chris has been round the rest of the UK to the best of my knowledge and also New York a few times each since they were last here. A lot of listeners over here are very disappointed that the show is'nt coming here on its UK tour, now I know a lot of people in England, Scotland and Wales will say they disappointed too that it s not coming to a place close to them but at least its coming to your country, while we're the only part of the UK left out. Just feel that it should be been made sure that it was a full UK tour and everyone was included and the tour should have been arranged that all 4 countries could be included. I see no reason that they could'nt come here and again I found Aled's excuses quite flimsey and could have been got around if they really wanted.


I'm sorry you felt my reasons were flimsy. I can assure you our first framework was to have 1 in each country. Unfortunately logistically the ferry times didn't accommodate ending a show in one of the other countries, getting the tour bus across and in time to start rigging the karaoke at the venue that same afternoon.


Rigging the karaoke venue? its not the U2 360 tour stage your hauling round :D There's plenty of bands in Belfast would have given you guys kit for the night for use with your live band, just fly in and fly back out again.

Video equipment (it is still karaoke after all), Radio 1 branding (audio, video, backdrops, posters), the gong (if they're still doing that), and i'm sure the list goes on.

As has been highlighted before, they've clearly done their research and assessed how best to travel in terms of both logistics and costs, and on this occasion NI just wasn't a feasible option.

Hi all- new to this website - but have been a fan of Chris Moyles since his early days on Radio 1 in the afternoons. I'm hoping to win a couple of tickets to see him on his tour. Does anybody know when the tickets will be released or when we will be notified if we've been successful?
Many thanks

The emails are sent out over the course of the day. Aled's latest tweet suggests they are all done now.

Leeds here too :)

Ditto about the finishing time though as I also have to get back to Manchester.

Also - are we allowed to take cameras - the ticket says not but it looks like generic BBC T&Cs for a TV show - perhaps Aled could help...?

If the ticket says not, why on earth are you asking?

None for me either. My friend also registered so will wait and see if she got some, doubt it though.

Oh well, dems the breaks. I hope all those who got tickets have a fabulous time.
