Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

What are you listening to?

My parents weren’t really into popular music like the Beatles and the Stones but loved West Side Story

Built on Shakespeare, it's a short step to rivalries, lives & loves in New York, isn't it? Watching Bernstein rehearse or conduct is a revelation! So intense, so scary! :-o

Imagine an impressionable early teen hearing this ^ for the first time! Bernstein roundly disapproved of the band burning the stars & stripes, it is reported. :-o

Was that at the Albert Hall? Didn't they get banned from touring America?
