Subj : the value of music To : all From : Richard Webb Date : Sat Mar 19 2011 10:36 pm Hello all! FOund this on the pro-audio email list, thought you'd enjoy it. A lady called the Los Angeles musicians union to inquire about the cost of booking a five piece band with a singer for a wedding... The AFM rep says "Off the top of my head, roughly two thousand dollars"... She says "WHAT ? FOR MUSIC ?"... The rep responds "Ma'am... I'll tell you what. Call the plumbers' union and ask for six plumbers to work from six to twelve o'clock on a Saturday night. Whatever they charge you, I'll work for half of that." She called back and said "I get your point". Regards, Richard --- timEd 1.10.y2k+ * Origin: (1:116/901) .
