New Years Eve is nuts.
I played a Christmas party at a restaurant which had a sign up advertising NYE at $155 per person.
A guy called me this morning looking for a job saying his NYE at a homeowners association was canceled this morning (3 days before the job). He had a small deposit, but no contract beyond that.
Russ.... I believe the girl singer I mentioned moved to Covington. She is in her late 60s with a very strong personality, but pretty good sense of what pleases a crowd. If you need more info..let me know.
Glenn... I hear what you are saying about "unringing" the bell and I guess I would cave and use her if I had to. The problem is she left me in a bit of a lurch knowing we had contracts for this season.
And DonM...sorry to hear about your cancelation, but glad you had a contract with a client who will honor the financials.
For all you guys who are not working, don't forget you could always crash Gary's party at his house.

(Better bring a snow shovel.)
