Gary keeps his promise: Procol Harum play on Sunday 17th September 2000 with the New London Sinfonia and Guildford Choral Society

PROCOL HARUM WILL PLAY as the climax of the Guildford Multimedia Arts Festival on Sunday 17 September 2000. At 7.30pm the evening event kicks off with The New London Sinfonia, the Guildford Choral Society and other well-respected artists performing classical pieces. Procol Harum will take the stage as the climax to the evening, when they will join the orchestra and choir. They are also expected to play as a five piece for parts of the evening. It will be an open-air concert with firework Grand Finale.

No other concerts are planned at present, but this Millennium Concert amply fulfils Gary's promise made at the end of last year to all the fans who have done so much to keep the fires burning brightly since Redhill that "Procol will play in 2000".

This Multimedia Arts Festival takes place in a huge public park; and with its four performance zones and quaintly comprehensive mix of ingredients it will clearly be a quintessentially English affair.

The event aimed at raising money for two charities; CHASE and ABRACADABRA (of which Gary is a board member).

This is going to be a wonderful event for us all and through the website we already know that Shiners, Palers and Whalers will be gathering from worldwide in Guildford. (Jose Rios will be joining us from Peru; and there will be European, American and Australian contingents.)
