1379.0. "CARLSBERG CONCERT '97" by CHEFS::TILLEY_F () Thu Apr 03 1997 18:20

    I saw an advert on C4 last night for the Carlsberg Concert '97 at
    Wembley in August.  I'd really like to know more about it, but the
    phone hotline number at the end of the advert flashed on and off the
    screen so quickly, I didn't have a chance to write it down.  Does
    anyone out there know anything about this?

Only what I saw on telly and what I read, apparantly Rod Stewart !! 
(ahem) and Seal are "headlining"....   Jon Bon Jovi, KD Lang and Steve 
Winwood will perform.  Other big names like George Michael and Elton 
John are also expected to join the line-up.  Pure pergutory, middle of 
the road rock if you like that sort of thing.  Couldn't stomach it 
meself but it takes all sorts...

A far better day out.. Chelmsord V97..  Blur, Khula Shaka, Dodgy, Ash, 
Mansun, Supernaturals, Reef, James, Divine Comedy announced so far..

    Also worth checking out is the Brighton Essential Music festival in
    May.  Three one day events rather than a three-day festival (if you see
    what I mean).  Friday is dance day, with loads of top names (Chemical
    Brothers, Orb, Dreadzone, Eat Static...), Saturday is 'Indie Day' with
    lots of big indie bands.  There is a web site around somewhere if
    anyone is interested...

    Of course, if you are in San Francisco (like me) on the 2nd May you can 
    see The Chemical Brothers and the Orb in concert. Meet you by the
    T-shirt table then Mike?
