Hello All,

If you have a moment, check out the website a friend of mine made for
freelance musicians and amateur performers, as well: www.musician2go.com

It grew out of a particularly painful contracting experience: trying to hire
63 musicians to play Til Eulenspiegel on one rehearsal - with 3 weeks'
notice. After hundreds of phone calls (must have been a busy weekend), she
finally succeeded but decided there had to be a Better Way. We really could
use a website with everyone's current info and a bio, so she decided to make
one. It took a year and lots of help from a kind web developer, but it's up
and running.

Please let her know what you think - suggestions are welcome.
If you like it, please sign up and tell your friends.

BTW: I know there are a few other such sites, but they are typically aimed
at the elite and professional crowd only. I like that her site encourages
players of all backgrounds to participate. Hope you enjoy!

Penny Ward Marcus
