I didn't spend 5 hours a day of my childhood practicing in order to only play as a volunteer.". ABSOLUTELY. i've been fairly lucky with concerts in that i've been paid for the ones i expect to be (not a huge amount, but fair for a yet-to-graduate student), but occasionally i feel i have been taken advantage of, and it does leave a bitter taste. this guy sounds like a complete jerk - i am so sorry not to be able to advise you in any way of the legal side of thing (i have zero clue), but i really hope you get to talk to someone who is informed about these things, because clearly what he's doing is wrong.<BR/><BR/>on a happier note, I LOVE JOSH RITTER!!! i have an irish friend from music school that introduced me to him (not personally...!), as well as other bands i love (the frames - reeeeally recommend if you don't know them, damien rice, bellx1, laura marling (love her!), etc.etc. so jealous you got to see him live! his "hello starling" album is my favourite :)<BR/><BR/>and i do find figs beautiful and delicious :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2166175721427773229.post-13525514333596160132009-03-30T20:56:00.000-04:002009-03-30T20:56:00.000-04:00I'm so sorry about your client! That is so incredi...I'm so sorry about your client! That is so incredibly rude...I've never had to deal with anything like that, so I don't have any good advice, sorry. :-( I will be praying that the situation will be resolved and you'll get the money you deserve!<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for praying for me and for the kind words of encouragement this morning. As a musician, you know better than anyone how it feels to walk into an audition! I thought it was ok, but I'm always super critical of myself. I definitely could have played the excerpts better, but all I can do is wait.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02758932883732204080noreply@blogger.com
