As Radio 1&#39;s Big Weekend was coming up, he managed to host an insightful interview with Dan Haggis, a band member from one of the festivals headlining acts - The Wombats. Haggis spoke openly on all things on the early days, touring as a band and being from Liverpool!&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 11px; text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span aria-label=\"video widget\" contenteditable=\"false\" role=\"region\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<video controls=\"controls\" data-widget=\"aiirvideo\" preload=\"metadata\" src=\"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1191\/682d99c33bcd3.mp4\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;\">&nbsp;<\/video>\n<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 11px; text-align: center;\"><span aria-label=\"video widget\" contenteditable=\"false\" role=\"region\" tabindex=\"-1\"><img src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP\/\/\/wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==\" \/><span style=\"background: url(&quot;https:\/\/cdn.ckeditor.com\/4.22.1\/standard-all\/plugins\/widget\/images\/handle.png&quot;) rgba(220, 220, 220, 0.5); top: -15px; left: 0px;\"><img draggable=\"true\" height=\"15\" role=\"presentation\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP\/\/\/wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==\" title=\"Click and drag to move\" width=\"15\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">Wednesday morning started off on a sad, but celebratory note. Jack was joined by Tom on the breakfast show, which was the last show of the academic year on Moore Student Radio. But the evening would be a special one, six members of the team were invited down to BBC Radio 1&#39;s mobile studio. We had the once in a lifetime experience of meeting Greg James, and being shown around a functioning BBC radio studio, even getting to use the technology! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1191\/683dd0daa74b6.jpg\" style=\"width: 409px; height: 545px;\" \/><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1191\/683dd0daa7545.jpg\" style=\"width: 409px; height: 545px; float: right;\" \/><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">But that w<\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">asn&rsquo;t all &hellip;. As Greg was showing us all the equipment, he ushered us to the screen, where a zoom call was being broadcast with none other than MILEY CYRUS. It turns out that Greg had a trick up his sleeve and wanted to surprise us all with the A-list pop star- which definitely worked, with Phoebe and Darcy breaking to tears! We were thrilled to make it on air on the BBC Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Greg James last Friday !<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DKPLQhMtvv-\/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

we were there! The Wombats gave an energy filled set, it felt surreal watching our newfound friend Dan Haggis doing his thing! We then enjoyed phenomenal sets from Natasha Bedingfield, Biffy Clyro and the headlining Tom Grennan, to close off an incredible opening day. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1191\/683dd1bfa235e.jpg\" style=\"width: 303px; height: 403px;\" \/><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">Saturday was another chaotic one! We had the privilege of meeting and catching up with the fantastic Sam Macgregor from BBC Radio 1, who spoke to us glowingly about the festival and his love for student radio. We then enjoyed the incredible music from the likes of the Blossoms and of course our personal favourite Sam Fender! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mmo.aiircdn.com\/1191\/683dd1bfa0894.jpg\" style=\"width: 298px; height: 452px;\" \/><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">Throughout the festival we ensured we were busy on our socials, keeping everybody up to date on our antics! Sunday was the perfect end to a special weekend, with the bangers provided from Tate McCrae and Mumford and Sons.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">It was Bank Holiday Monday, and a big day for the whole city. It was no doubt a monumental occasion as the Premier League champions paraded their trophy through the City. We were thrilled to see the city turn red, with millions flocking to Liverpool for joyous celebrations. Unfortunately, due to the incident on Water Street, celebrations were cut short. Moore Student Radio fully supports those affected and wish a speedy recovery to those injured.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:11px\"><span style=\"font-size:12pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Aptos,sans-serif\">Wow what a week it was!
