Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I'm having a perfect Friday night.
Dinner with the family with lots of laughter - done.
Dancing in the rain - done.
First night of the Proms - doing.
What are you looking forward in this year's Proms programme?

"Proms chamber series
20th August
New commission from Laura Nvula
"
I hadn't spotted that one. I knew they were commissioning women to compose but didn't know Laura Mvula was one of them. |

"Love the John wilson proms
This years celebration of all things Bernstein will have both West Side Story and On the Town performed by Wilson and his orchestra "
Those are on my list, along with all the Gershwin. I wouldn't have thought they would be on your list, though. |

"The Tango Prom at the beginning of September - it's going to be wonderful.
I've got that and the Havana Meets Kingston one, at the end of this month, circled in my little guide.
"
Ah yes, I saw that one but sadly I am on childminding duties.
Are you going to them both? |

I haven't bought any tickets this year. I don't have anyone to go with so I'll decide on the day of particular Proms and see if I can get a seat. |

"Going to get down there a bit more this year. Plus the roundhouse and other freebie stuff."
I meant to apply for some of the free tickets for the BBC sessions but then didn't know whether work would get in the way...

I'll be watching/recording that one. If I'm free, and not too knackered, I might try and get a Prom ticket on the night.

The last live one I went to, last year, was almost entirely young people.

"Popular tunes tonight.
British
It's nice to hear an organ too.
Instead of just looking at it ??? "
Exactly.
If you're watching there was a really beautiful woman sitting just below the soloist. I promise I wasn't looking at his organ.
