The Sessions

"Them summer nights can keep a smile on your face" and throughout the UK there is a great line up of music through the 2006 summer season.

The Hampton Court Palace Festival offers rock legend Eric Clapton, singer-songwriters, Art Garfunkel and the inimitable Tracy Chapman.
But I hear you say: "Tell me more, tell me more."
Like, Kiri Te Kanawa, the Glyndebourne Festival Opera with Die Fledermaus, Ronan Keating, Jools Holland with his Rhythm and Blues Orchestran Morrison and Vivaldi's Four Seasons, complete with Fireworks performed by Nicola Benedetti and the Armonico Consort Orchestra of the Baroque; Conductor: Chirstopher Monks.

"Tell me more, tell me more. But you don't gotta brag"
Like, Get Loaded in the Park returns to Clapham Common this summer.
Turnmills will be the scene for Get Loaded in the Park's official 2006 Festival Launch Party on Sunday 16 April.
Special live performances from Deaf Stereo (who supported Mylo on his UK Tour last year) and Waxed Apple, an outrageously cool new band from Brighton and more very special guests to be announced soon.

Lil' Rob would surely say "Im feeling good, feeling all right tonight,"
"Aint nothing like them summer nights."
