Yeah. Who has the better line up though? 

R1 by miles. There’s a few whoppers like C&TB and HRVY, but judging by some of the crap they’ve resorted to booking in big slots TRNSMT would kill to have secured a couple out of Miley, VW, Future, TDCC, The 1975 and Khalid let alone all of them. And getting Little Mix and M&S as non-headliners is still really strong, even if neither are what they once were in terms of popularity. 

Can’t believe they’ve booked Sean bloody Paul again though, how many Radio 1 listeners in 2019 are fans of him ?

He features on pretty much every song they play on radio 1, so I'd imagine plenty. Plus he can come on for plenty of collaborations.

Well yeah obvs he’ll come out with Little Mix but he must have been cheap if that’s the best justification for booking him.

Pretty sure big weekend pays in airplay time for the most part.

It does but there’s still gonna be some kind of payment varying by act. There was that story about HAIM firing their booking agent for accepting 10% of the fee an equivalent male act got, at a festival which they didn’t name but was fairly obviously R1BW.

Anyway it’s besides the point :)
