RASS-What Acts would you like to see

[Flyingrockdj]

Go on, if you you don't mind using this for a bit of audience research!
What would you like to see and what would you not like to see, booking acts can be prety hit and miss, contribute your ideas and we'll see what we can do. Bear in mind it is an Anglo German show so we do have to have some gurhkin cruncher acts.
Make a difference, we might then book 'em, and blame you if it's shiot

FRDJ- Which year are we talking about? I understand that this years acts are already booked and if they are not, bearing in mind that the RASS is in May, does it matter what anyone wants?
I think what needs to be asked is what format do we want for the RASS? Why cant we just have a pop concert? Do we want a big village fete and a pop concert?
From its original concept, It has changed a lot and I get the feeling it is moving towards a fairground with bars during the day, with pop stars from the 80s during the evening. Maybe I am wrong, Was anyone else aware that Brit Army and Welfare stands are now pushed to the outskirts of the showground and charged for their pitches? RASS is a commercial project now so let it happen on civvy land, with civvy people setting it up and running it and all the profits going to civvys who organise it and the 2nd rate entertainment who are only too happy to take our money because the Blackpool Winter Gardens are closed.
Give us Robbie Williams, Travis, Manic etc. If people are really interested in what we want. However lets first decide what the RASS is.
p.s Nothing personal against the question poser; first time I have seen the question posed.

How about the "California Dream Men"?

We are involved purely in an advisory capacity. Profit goes to service charities, it is run by 20th Armd bde who do subcontract some functions.
It is a Family show, not a day out for yobs, bear that in mind !
Suggest and we will find, the idea this year is that as it's the jubilee we do an oldies day on the monday with as many geriatric rockers as we can squeeze on the stage and with top notch acts on sat n sun, remember that if you want festival you pay big dosh to get in(this years Glastonbury one day tickets £120 each!) wheras we try to get acts within budget to appeal to all age ranges and tastes, remember that some acts do have an ethical problem with appearing with hm forces(Manics!, Oasis) and some people are interested(robbie) but only if it is rescheduled to suit them.
Suggest acts and we will see what we can do.
If you want to whinge about the way it is run, use your change of command.

"Put the Frosties back in the Packet!" says Mrs Beckham.

"GENERAL JACKSON TAKING HIS FACE FOR AN IRON."

Wouldn't pay to see it GQ but it was *****ng funny!    

 

[error_unknown]

i don´t know particularly about what acts i would like to see but definately not jason donovan. what about the prodigy or somthing
PS flying rock dj
can you do a dedication twice daily for the period of the rass, such as trogs rule! from trogulus@arrse.co.uk
and then maybe play we´ll rock you from queen
cheers me old mate
trog

 

[TheLordFlasheart]

I've got it! Trogs and Flying rock are one and the same!

Think about it. They have both been absent for a while and on return, transmit 'useful' postings.

If you were controller of BFBS, would you employ Trog as a broadcaster? Mmmm, yes , probably. Hospital Radio has nothing on you guys.

Up with the Partridge and all that!

 

[Flyingrockdj]

          No we're not, some of us have a job to do instead of munching digestives and supping coffee all day you know(only half the day!)
          Like the Prodigy idea trog, but they are quite pants live and their stage show is not what you'd call Kiddies friendly. How about Sash? would that do yer!
           Flash mate you're getting very personal mate, it's a good job I like hospital radio, thing is mate....I've never done it, went from Squaddie to radio star overnight on UK commercial radio and came to BFBS to do that old principled thing of putting something back, (all for charidy mate) plus you know I do like you lot and the lifestyle but I can assure you I could make a more sizeable crust outside, this is in common with most BFBS jocks, all of whom are you will be surprised to hear remarkably dedicated to serving you the audience.
         Whinge if you will but you'd be surprised to know that we do respond to your requests and moans so make some contructive ones and we will see what we can do to accommodate you.
       

The whole worlds a stage, or is that staging area?

 

[MancRed]

Rumour has it there will be a Ministry tent/show

Any truth in this  ???    if so who  !!!


How about  New Order.......................

 

[leeanne]

How's about Showaddywaddy or Neill Diamond!  Great source of male hunks - agree? :-[
