Oh Poo!
I have a horrible feeling that I will be out of the country on 10 August, and will miss Prom 33.
Ploppy Doo Doos.
Some renegotiation of holiday plans may be in order, but in case I cannot, please could members let me know if they will be there for me?

I thought I was being selective!! So why does my prospective total contain a 0 and begin with a 3 ?!   I've never 'seen the light' as far as RVW is concerned, plenty of opportunities to solve that. Very glad to see Ferguson getting a (small) appearance in #28 too. |

Just spotted the Bloomin' Lang Lang!!!  Visually he's a complete show-off, to a level which I just don't see the point in. When he did Chopin 1 in 2006 there were any number of video cameras whizzing away. One for the maybe's for me, if I do go I won't be queueing for very long. |

Some very good things on this years Proms. Its a pity, that they havnt really took off on VW's year. I think a missed oppurtunity here, for example, no Sancta Civitas or Dona Nobis Pacem. Its good that other VW composoitions are being played, eg Flos Campi.
Its a shame tjat a wind band is not performing, because that would be ideal for VWs English Folksong suite to be played, etc. maybe c/w Holst Hammersmith Prelude etc, or Suites for military band and some contemprorary music to, which abounds with some very good pieces indeed.

Doing my shopping chores at Tesco, this morning, I saw that the Proms 2008 brochure was on sale for £4, instead of £6 rrp. And points, too, of course!  |

Does the printed brochure contain details of TV and radio transmission times for those of us who can't reach London?
If so, I think it's worth picking up if it's only £5. Otherwise, I'll make do with the BBC web site...

Hi, yes it does. All concerts are broadcast live on Radio 3 and some on BBC 4 TV (mainly the Sunday & Monday concerts). BBC1 / BBC2 are also broadcasting /relaying a few Saturday concerts too.
