Concert Day Help Needed:

Percussion Moving Team - needed for Saturday morning to move from Tauntons to Turner Sims and back again on the Sunday morning. Please liaise with Pete Hackston on 1st horn.
Front of House / Ushers - to meet and greet; sell concert programmes; ushers in auditorium. They need to be in the auditorium for a briefing at 18:30.
Soloist Taxi - can anyone give David a lift back to Southampton Central station as soon as the concert has finished as he needs to catch a train at 10pm?

Concert Day Logistics:

Green Rooms - the small green room to the right of the auditorium area is available but space is tight in there. We will also have the use of building 56 (next door) from 1pm. This can be used for cases, bags; somewhere to sit, eat, change. Cases and belongings can be left there during the concert and the building will be locked. We will have a couple of access cards. Cases etc can be moved to the normal green room but please be considerate as this often gets very congested.
Refreshments - the coffee shop in the auditorium will be open in our break and 1 hour before the concert
Concert dress - all black; small handbags (if needed on stage).
Bring
- own music stands are needed
- stand lights - if you have your own please bring. We have some but not enough for everyone.
