Thread Name: A Gig From Hell
Subject: RE: A Gig From Hell
That gig reminds me of the time a local community theater group did a quasi-ren.faire as a fund raiser. The asked local musicians from the Folklore society to dontate their talents. It turned out the organizers had no concept of what they were asking of us. Costumes, of course, and playing for about six hours or more. No special places to perform. And if we wanted to keep our cases open to busk, they wanted us to give them the money. Then, they didn't even invite us to the cast party after the event. This was all about 20 years ago. I then teamed up with Margaret and told future event organzers that we were too busy to fit them in our schedule.
