great excitement in the Close. As I write, I am watching Prince Charles walk toward Lichfield's Cathedral from my office window. There is the obligatory run of chain gang, media and children, as well as throngs of public. Everyone is dressed to the nines, while I'm at my desk wearing a Hawaiian shirt.

just confirmed jeremy hardy for Thursday 16 July as the replacement for our mystery gig. We're just waiting on the link to enable online sales, and we'll announce formally via press releases, e-newsletters and on the Festival website... Probably go one sale later on today. It's his first visit to Lichfield for nearly six years - should be really, really good.

keeping up with the badkes
toward the end of last week, jon lord sent through the majority of scores and part of the Badke Quartet, who will be performing with him in Lichfield Cathedral. In passing them on to the quartet, I became aware that they are currently in France studying with the Eberhard Feltz. And then, just now, their new newsletter dropped into my inbox, so you can see what they are up to for yourself.
