I know the Boston Pops is still a little far away, but writing about them means that they're coming soon. And by the time they arrive, it'll be warm again. Yay for warm weather. So the '09 Boston Pops lineup has been announced and it's looking pretty good.

In his 15th year as Conductor of the Boston Pops, Keith Lockhart returns to the podium for the orchestra’s 124th season, May 6-June 21. The season is highlighted by the launch of the Pops’ brand-new Red Sox Album, produced in conjunction with the Boston Red Sox and Major League Baseball, and scheduled for release on Monday, April 6, the opening day of the Red Sox season.

The list of great guest performers that will be here just goes on and on. Here's a few of them: John Williams, Barbara Cook, Michael Feinstein, Linda Eder, and the list goes on. Here's the important part: tickets go on sale soon - Monday 2/23 @ 8am.
