Funny, My Dad and I were just talking about this very episode last night.

I believe today is the last day you can vote.
Take the one question quiz and you get 2 votes!

Voted again!!


Not enough paying bari gigs to justify the outlay for an instrument that can't support itself. My other axes were bought with gig revenue from my former life. I seem to be getting...

I'd settle for one of them Japanese models. Doesn't even have to be a resonant Bb model, I'd settle for a stuffy low A model.

Vote!

OK

Thanks guys and veggies.


Now WHO do I see to get a "Help the deserving broke musician get a bari" thread going?? :twisted:

Any pitch for sick friends sends up flags for me too. Too bad the scammers are affecting those who are truly in need of assistance in such an awful way - keeping good people from doing what they...

Absolutely serious.

This kid almost wasn't. The docs advised her parents that she not be born.

She is very smart and extremely gifted with an amazing voice - and I don't ever say that about...

A car that she can drive herself would run $60,000. Pretty hard for any young person to afford on her own. I hope she can get something useful from this contest, even if she doesn't win the car.

Nobody??

At least we learned that Mothers is pretty tough stuff.

I had the opportunity to work with this girl and she, in addition to what the page will tell you, is a very talented singer.

She is in the running to get a specially modified vehicle so she can be...

You mean brand new?

That period sounds likely.

You get that too?

Very nice work.

Were you able to control the darkening so as to match a honey lacquer in a repair?

He has this already, I think he wants to know how much each instrument is present in the parts and whether or not there is an alternate instrument part in the score itself for some of the parts...

It's been years since I've done the show, but I don't recall any issues either time I played the show - and I am not a double reed player and wouldn't play my flute outside (or inside) the house.

Back on topic.

As a solo artist I get $200/ hr plus expenses for weddings and the like (1 inst). As a member of a big band I'm lucky to get $100 for the night, after expenses (2 inst). In my...

The population of the US has a subset indulging in things they cannot afford, but they are not of my culture. My culture pays cash for everything except realestate, if we cannot afford it, we don't...

I live here in the states and those are NOT natural expenses associated with an economical life. Do not lump me in with YOUR indulgences.

Go to school very close to where you intend to make your living playing. It takes ability to play for a living, but it is more important who you know so you can get "in". Study with the guys who are...

Might as well try taking a non running pinto to a vintage sport car shop and asking to trade it for a running British roadster. Something of no value for something with a specific desirability...

Each timpani head responds differently and moving them around is not good for their responsiveness or intonation. Tuning a set of timpani - not changing pitch, but tuning them requires some quiet...

The comments are quite representative of the problems out there.

I played violin for that show, the parts do exist - and kick the synth player for me, would ja?
