Dear Stacy valentine,

As you may be aware, Local 802 President Bill Moriarity
and the musicians of New York City are about to begin
their crucial Broadway negotiations with the League
of American Theatres and Producers.

Protecting live music on Broadway remains a vital
mission in these upcoming negotiations. As you know,
the fight to preserve live music does not end on Broadway,
but continues throughout the US and Canada as well.

Preserving the rich sound of a live orchestra or band
is in the best interests of all AFM members. Local
802 has created an online petition which can be found
at:

http://www.savelivebroadway.com

We urge you to visit this site and lend your voice
of support.

Please feel free to forward this link to friends,
colleagues, fellow musicians, ticket buyers, and all
others who may be interested in preserving live music
in live theater productions.

Thank you for your support!

In Solidarity,

Thomas F. Lee, President
Michael Manley, Touring Division

American Federation of Musicians
