    Radio 1's Hackey Weekend
    Has anyone else registered? And do you have any idea how quickly tickets will be gone, is it a matter or seconds like V etc?

    Hey, me and a friend have just registered - excited but not at the same time.. excited at the possibility of going, but then thinking that there are thousands of other people registered so it may not work out :/

    I don't have any idea how it will work as this would be my first festival/music-related event!

    Good line-up as well, not sure if any more artists are going to be announced or not, but either way it looks solid

    So who's got tickets?!

    I'm going on the Saturday.
    Looking forward to seeing Jack White, Florence + the Machine, Jay-Z, possibly the Maccabees... My friend'll probably wanna see Lostprophets =/ but yeah, should be great!
    Got tickets to Jack White on the Thursday beforehand aswell =D

    Nice! Yeah looks like a great line-up for saturday, though I regret having to miss some of the acts - I managed to get tickets for Sunday which just edged it for me!

    Looking forward to David Guetta in particular, just love how he combines electrifying beats with amazing vocals, hasn't put out a bad track in my opinion

    Have fun on the saturday, I'm sure it'll be great!

    Tickets were an absolute joke. Refreshing the page for over 1 hour 45 mins and nothing

    Even got in and put my details in a few times only for it to crash again :facepalm2:

    Ahhh fair enough. Hmm, I haven't liked most things Guetta's put out the last couple years but I won't deny his talent, he is a hit-making machine if that's your thing.

    Yeah, Sunday does look great. Chase & Status' live sit is a must see, tbh. I wonder who Sunday's new special guest will turn out to be... But yeah should be good =D

    Definitely a disgrace. I didn't get mine for 90mins or so. For the first 40, I was getting 'Your IP address is denied access' or whatever.
    That definitely happened a couple of times, but remember - 50,000 less people will be trying tomorrow - so do still give it a go and good luck! =]

    Just irritating how they had a figure of the number of people registered yet the servers still collapsed. Though I'm sure many trying didn't realise you had to be registered ahaha.

    I got tickets for Sunday, decided I was going to see Jay-Z in June anyway so I would choose the day that B.o.B was going. Super excited to see Chase and Status again as well, I saw them at V last year and it was the best gig of my life.

    Managed to get the tickets within 5 minutes on the monday, after trying for an hour and 15 mins on the sunday.
