Das Konzert in Norwich am 22.6. steht noch. Mit der Bahn von London nach Norwich dauert ca. 1:50 Std. und ein Zug geht alle halbe Stunde. Für bestimmte Zugtickets gibt es noch freie Eintrittskarten in den Freizeitpark in Norwich.SOON hat geschrieben:vorerst storniere ich nicht, das Konzert war nicht der einzige Grund, für den Trip.
Das hatte sich nur gut ergänzt, werde wahrscheinlich dann Jack White besuchen und wenn Rick ein Gig alleine spielen würde wäre mir das lieber wie ein ganzen Tag mit Musik berieselt zu werden.
Sightseeing und Shopping waren eh im Plan.
Mit dem Auto braucht man allerdings ca. 3 Std, und fliegen kann man von London aus nicht (obwohl Norwich einen Flughafen hat).
Das Konzert am 21.6. gibt es jetzt wohl auch sicher. Rick schreibt dazu auf seiner HP:
The Phoenix Concerts 2012
From the ashes of the unforeseen cancellation of Crystal Palace has risen the idea of 2 completely different concerts that will take place on Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd of June.
The first concert on the 21st will take place at The Granary in Beccles and will be a total unique one-off.
It’s...............Rick Wakeman & his Acoustic Rock Style Ensemble . (the name having been given by Dave Colquhoun whom I am certain must have realised that as an acronym it reads.......RICK WAKEMAN and his ARSE. Moving swiftly on...
This is the line-up:
Rick Wakeman - piano
Oliver Wakeman - piano
Dave Colquhoun - acoustic guitars
Ashley Holt - vocals
Tony Fernandez - percussion
And it will be a very unique evening in so many respects. Rick has never ever done an "unplugged" before with the ERE and also this will be the first time that he will have performed an entire concert together with his son Oliver.
The music will include many surprises and will bear no resemblance whatsoever to the rock show that he does with The English Rock Ensemble. It is also unlikely ever to be repeated so certainly one not to miss.
As well as the music from Rick and the band, there will be solo spots from both Oliver and Dave Colquhoun.
Another first will be a Q&A where questions can be asked not only to Rick but to any of the guys on stage. (Rick is extremely nervous about letting them anywhere near a microphone, but nevertheless has succumbed) !!!
It looks like it’s going to be a very special occasion
The Friday 22nd line-up for the concert at the OPEN in Norwich is that of the classic English Rock Ensemble where they will play all the classic stuff from Rick’s repertoire, (plus a few surprises of course), and the line-upon stage will be:
Rick Wakeman - keyboards
Dave Colquhoun - guitars
Lee Pomeroy - bass
Ashley Holt - vocals
Tony Fernandez - drums
It will be the only show in the UK in 2012 of Rick and the band and they have promised they will play until they drop. (Actually the band said they will play until Rick drops)!
