jan 1, 1973 - The Radio 1 Roadshow began

Description:

DJ's would visit British towns, play a live set, meet local people to play their requests, take part in games and give away "goodie bags" of Radio 1 gifts. It's now morphed into the Big Weekend, with up to 100,000 fans watching acts like Jay-Z, Foo Fighters and Madonna playing unlikely towns like Swindon, Dundee and Norwich.
