Just to let you all know that the ticket registration for Radio 1's One Big Weekend in Preston on the 19-20th May is now online. Go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/bigweekend to register for your tickets.

I've been to a few of these and they have always been amazing. Best of all the tickets are free if you are lucky enough to get picked in the draw!

Here is just some of the line up:Razorlight, Kaiser Chiefs, Calvin Harris, Stereophonics, Just Jack, Mika, Scissor Sisters, Rhianna, Fratellis - and more to be announced!

You can register from now until the 7th May so don't panic if you can't get on.
See you there!

    Just registered - I was the 115957th person to do so. Not heartening when you live in the South East and note
    "We are giving out 7,500 pairs of tickets for each day through this registration system.

    98% will go to people who live in the North-West of England. Of these, the majority will go to people in the Preston area."

    I know in some cases flogging tickets on ebay is bad but in all honsty I've bought One Big Weekend tickets from there before and all has been fine.

    The line up is amazing and I would sell minor body parts to see some of those bands. If I have to part with a few quid I think its a small sacrifice!

    Oh how jealous am I, lucky you, I have not heard but do not hold out much hope.
    I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day
