Re: Wilderness Festival, Oxfordshire, August 5th, 2022

I think there are no day tickets at all, apart from for Sunday. So you would have to buy a ticket for the whole event. Its several hundred pounds.

Its a “family centric” style festival, I believe.

Hopefully they will be well received, its a decent audience for them.

Re: Summer Concerts 2022 - Brighton & Chichester

The fear of only getting ‘bad’ seats is unfounded. It’s nearly two hours after the general sale started and there are still premium seats available for both concerts. My fear is half empty venues. :-( Managed to get front row on the right for Brighton and second row on the left hand side for Chiche...

Re: Summer Concerts 2022 - Brighton & Chichester

Um, the mystery of the advanced sales option… For friends/family I am guessing, with a code? I think the Ely concert had the same? I shall brace myself for an awful seat then. It took a while for the premium seats to fill for Ely, even with an advanced option, so fingers crossed! I think the ticket...

I didn’t see them film either…

If it was the same as last year then the stream was a mixture of both concerts.

Re: Concert St John’s Smith Square (2021)

I'm glad everyone had a good time. How did the 8 PM concert go? Was it as well attended as the 5 PM? Has there been any further word about streaming the concert? It was excellent. Not as well attended but the audience was appreciative! It didn’t look half empty. During the speeches, they mentioned ...

Re: Concert St John’s Smith Square (2021)

Superb concert, several new soloists… I am sure someone will post a proper review. Daniel W, Luca, Victor, Daniel C, Dominik (I may have missed some) still hitting the high notes!

Place looked pretty full to me as well. Will see how the 8pm one looks in 90 minutes.

Re: Concert St John’s Smith Square (2021)

Depends if the rules change… again… by then I guess. You have to quarantine until you get the result. The test has to be taken on or before day two. Nothing to say you can’t take it on day zero. There are places that will, for a price, allow you to do the test on site, and give you the results that ...

Re: Concert St John’s Smith Square (2021)

Most of the UK is in denial really about Covid. Very little mask wearing outside of public transport, and the country has high infection rates. Luckily the vax rate is flattening the hospitalisations somewhat. My brother is currently over from Texas and its relatively straightforward to get the test...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Christmas Concert 2020 (Dec 6)

Sooooo pleased I made it down to London for the concert. Glad you made it to the concert. Thank you very much for your report between the events! While in the programme 12 or 13 songs were announced I learned that they only played 10. Did they play different songs on the two events so that we can h...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Christmas Concert 2020 (Dec 6)

I bought the souvenir program but I'm a little confused - is the program digital or will a real program be shipped to me? I would not expect to receive a print. Printed programmes cost more in their shop. Furthermore, on their website it says: " It is only available in digital format for you t...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Christmas Concert 2020 (Dec 6)

Sooooo pleased I made it down to London for the concert. It was certainly “different”. I would guess an audience of 200 or so, all separated out very efficiently by the SJSS staff. Quite a few empty seats which I imagine were bought by people who then could not travel. It didn’t spoil the concert. T...

Re: St John's Smith SQ Christmas Concert 2020 (Dec 6)

Yep, hoping nothing crazy happens between now and then! Will be my first night away from home base since March.

I still have a spare ticket for each concert if anyone still needs one, send me a pm if interested.
