    Together with Specsavers Hearing Centres, Classic FM is offering one lucky listener the trip of a lifetime to see Gustavo Dudamel conduct the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra play live in Los Angeles — and meet the man himself afterwards.

    You and your guest could be jetting off to see Gustavo Dudamel, heralded as one of the greatest conductors of our time, leading the orchestra in Los Angeles.
    This is a real trip of a lifetime — and a money-can't-buy prize. Classic FM and Specsavers Hearing Centres will send you and a friend or partner to Los Angeles to stay in a 5-star hotel for 5 nights. Tickets to see Gustavo Dudamel are like gold dust, but also included are two seats to see him lead the LA Philharmonic Orchestra at one of the worlds most iconic and interesting venues, the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall. You'll enjoy a performance of Mendelssohn, featuring three of the German composer's finest works. Then, whilst everyone else heads for the exit at the end of the performance, you will have the unique opportunity to go backstage and meet the man himself: Gustavo Dudamel.

    Apologies for bumping!

    Weeowens was just trying to be helpful and wasn't criticising ;)

    I post quite often and still dupe some post's every now and then, I normally search the part just before .co.uk -.com or.org so in the instance above I would search for "classicfm"

    the search engine is notorious for playing up and it sometimes takes some time for the search engine to index the comps posted, so even if a comp dosn't appear in the search results it could still have been posted in the first couple of pages :(

    because of this I usually check the first two pages of comps but I still find sometimes that I have duped :mad:

    Best of Luck :)
