Maybe an incorrect assumption. I assumed everything to do with trade shows in the great northeast was under a unions control.

You are QUITE correct in that assumption.

I thought that you might've been referring to myself.
I have too much work ethic to be in a union.

Not really, but I'm fortunate enough to include music into my daily class and individual schedules of the youngsters that I work with. That means, I'm allowed to bring my guitar along -- and accompany them during music sing-a-longs -- even for something as simple as "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." :)

p.s.
-- if the opportunity comes into sight, I think I'll be willing to give it a try.

Gil, if you can teach him that within the next 5 months, then Jeff will have something to play at the TourJam.

I sell commercial coffee brewers to service companies, mostly in New England and New York, Pittsburg, and Cleveland area.

I'm not a great salesman, and I'm not a great guit-picker, but I am a pretty good coffee drinker.

I'm a lawyer for injured plaintiffs. I create business for guys like Mark in Boise. My specialty is dental/medical malpractice, but I handle all sorts of injury cases. I've been doing this for 6 years.

Before that, I was a defendants' attorney like Mark. Did that for 6 years.

For the 16 years before that, I was a pharmacist. Ergo the "rx" in my screen name.

I am in The radio Broadcasting field and have been for the Last 23 years. Started off as a DJ in training became Part-time then a full time Announcer in 1982 All the years later I concentrate on Commercial Production.I write scripts, produce spots and assign spots to be done by other announcers.The broadcasting cluster that i work for now has 6 Radio Stations in this market. I handle the commercials for all of these stations. And when i get a chance I play a little guitar.Radio Doesnt exactly pay alot of money,and with a wife and two kids, I'm looking to get out of the Radio Biz and into something that will actually help pay the bills.

Steve,
I have been told that I have a face for Radio, does that count?

It's never too late to start over, just more painful. Is Ovation hiring in CT? Wish you a great 06!

Piers, do any business with the Gilkes turbine company in Kendall, England? Nice folks. They did quite a few hydropower projects around here a few years ago.
