Radio One & GKGG

Hi guys I have been wondering for a while why Radio One don't really take an active rold in GKGG, I mean all the other big festivals are promoted by Radio One (ie have Radio One tents or essential mixes) but they don't get involved with Global Gathering, any you guys know why?

Because its not RnB or Hiphop?

If its on galaxy just count it as not on the radio coz galaxy just use it to promote tehmesleves and sell advertising space their a disgrace to radio broadcasting and ruin events with there shear inability to not mention there name every five minutes

i think it's because it comes too near to other radio one covered events... homelands, radio 1 in ibiza, dance parties and other outdoor festivals eg glastonbury.

That was the reason given for them not covering the SSS last year neway.

+ I'm not sure if Gods would want them there. It's not as if they need the extra publicity.

I know Gods have huge pulling power and can sell the event out without Radio One, I just find it strange that the number one club in the land doesn't seem to have the number one Radio station involved, lets face it Galaxy are really crap wen it comes to live broadcasts (ie. interviews during sets and crappy adverts).

I guess you could say Gods don't need Radio One but if Radio One was used the event would get broadcast to all corners of the globe and would be huge promotion for tours of Australia etc.
