According to Geordie on their forum, who incidently is the big man with the drum, he's been allowed to take his! |

Westenra is one of the best opera singers around at this moment in time, at just 22 years of age.
Sang with legends that are Andrea Bocelli and Russell Watson.
Shes great at singing "Ave Maria", "I Dreamed a Dream" and "Pokarekare Ana".
Of course she will be singing "Abide with Me".

Important word "unlicenced"
Maybe he has a licence for it?

Hopefully the info won't get passed down to the stewards and they can jump all over it whilst 'looking after it' for him... |

Makes me laugh when people start talking about what songs they're gonna be singing and taking drums along....take it from me the NEW WEMBLEY is poor and truly lacking in atmosphere, it's just to big and cavernous.
The semi-finals are much more a truer reflection of RL atmosphere, loads more fun and better value any day.

I've been for the last two year and I could completely disagree. Loved it both times. |

Black Dyke playing Abide with Me will be awesome. I think it is a good choice from the RFL. It will really create a sense of occasion. I think there will be a few lumps in the throat just before kick off.

| Quote ="Dave T"It's actually a very good line up IMO.
The entertainment is traditional and different to the entertainment in the Grand Final, where they go for more modern bands, like Scouting for Girls last year.
At Wembley, people like the classical music, and brass bands despite sounding really old fashioned always go down well and add to the sense of occasion. I'm looking forward to seeing them.'" Do ya know what mate, i'm going to take back what I said and agree with you on that one. |

Having been to Wembley a few times that atmosphere is fantastic. The ground is designed to reverberate the noise around.

I love a Brass Band, makes me cry. My fave film is Brassed off. Cried when my daughter graduated this year and was paraded through Huddersfield behind a brass band. Bloomin great.
I'm under 50 too, well only just.

Mmm seems I was wrong then. Good job I didn't put my original thought of 70. I just have always associated Brass Band music with my parents and grand parents.
Each to their own. If you like it then good for you I'm sure you'll enjoy it. They can't please everybody all of the time, although I did enjoy the gospel choir they had prior to the 2006 final.
I still think it's a bit of a northern stereotype thing though.
