Cardinal 0 Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 After much trouble with the website, I finally got my tickets over the phone. I've never been to Symphony Hall and haven't been to Boston in over 15 years. I was at the Hollywood Bowl Award Gala and the E.T. 20th Anniversary premiere, which were both fantastic, so I have high expectations for my next John Williams concerts. Here's when I'm going:Hooray for Hollywood Boston Pops May 19, 2004 8:00 PM Symphony Hall ORCH Row E, Table 2 Spring Pops with John Williams Boston Pops May 22, 2004 8:00 PM Symphony Hall ORCH Row P, Table 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker 5 Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I have high expectations for my next John Williams concerts.I just want to hear "The March from Superman". Anything else would just be bonus material. Of course, if he wants to premiere some Prisoner of Azkaban music I guess I wouldn't complain too much.Oh, and maybe he can sneak in "The Enterprise".
