If you like music performances, try a

®keyword WishList for “Concert.” Choose the category “Arts” and the Sub- Category “Music.”

Tips for entering keywords:

To specify an exact phrase in a Keyword or Title WishList, surround a set of words

with quotation marks (to enter quotation marks, press PAUSE ( ). For example, the keyword PAUL SIMON might also turn up a documentary about Simon Bolivar with a director whose name is Paul. Use “PAUL SIMON” to be certain you find only programs that feature Paul Simon.

If you enter more than one keyword in a Keyword or Title WishList, it finds only programs that match all of your keywords (for example, “GEENA DAVIS” FLY).

If you want to include an exact phrase and additional keywords, there should be a space between the final quotation mark and the beginning of the next word. You can

enter a space by selecting SP on the grid of letters or by pressing FORWARD ( ).

Replace hyphens ( - ), slashes ( / ) and periods ( . ) with spaces. For example, you would use the keyword 20 20 to search for the title “20/20.” For an Actor WishList for Catherine Zeta-Jones, use ZETA JONES, CATHERINE. You can enter a space by

selecting SP on the grid of letters or by pressing FORWARD ( ).

Any other marks, such as apostrophes ( ’ ) and ampersands ( & ), are ignored. For example, you would use the keyword phrase 6 OCLOCK NEWS to search for the title “6 O’Clock News.” (Note that commas ( , ) are also ignored, except in an actor or director WishList, where they are essential.)

For dollar signs ( $ ) substitute the letter S. For example, to find “$100,000 Pyramid,” use S100000. (In Search by Title, skip the dollar signs to find these titles.)
