Get with the PROGRAMME

Kevin finds a musical memory from 50 years ago still strikes a chord

- KEVIN MILNE

Aren't concert programmes a treat? At least, they used to be. I've noticed that a lot of the concerts I go to now don't provide programmes. Either that or I'm too tight to buy them. The thing about them is even if they're just useful information at the time, they're great to look back on.

Linda and I have a stack of programmes from concerts we went to in London. My favourite is a large, colourful one from a huge London concert, Mid Summer Music, in 1975. It was at Wembley Stadium and 75,000 went along with us. Not surprising. It's the best lineup of talent at one concert I've ever been to.
