Annie relates her N.Y.E. gig and asks of others.

I couldn`t have taken a New Year`s Eve gig due to illness even tho` I was
waiting on confirmation which turned out to be negative in the end.
But a colleague took a 4tet including a vocalist to an English British
legion Club (UGH) for £200 each, 8.30 till 12.30. They started on time, and
at precisely 10.oo pm they were sacked without pay. My colleague was home at
11.00pm. The club refused to pay them because they did not play "The Birdie
Song" UGH UGH.

I will have it known that I DO NOT play with this band - I am mearly
relating the story to you.

T.W.
