Thread Name: more session rudeness
Subject: RE: more session rudeness
"If these young people of CAF, were booked to lead, then perhaps they were not well advised as to how that is best achieved. When I delegate, I ensure that the person is completely aware of my requirements, and if those requirements are not met that person WILL hear from me."
for me, this is the key. I don't think they were booked to run sessions - it's a very different role. Perhaps the festival didn't make its requirements clear - but it sounds like someone else was actually booked to run sessions. My understanding is that, in the past, actual players have been a bit thin on the ground. These guys were brought in to play and keep the music going.
