I just desire to ask from all of this, what is the ultimate gig back for
less than $200?

What is the derivation of the word "gig"? Is it really correct to lump
performances of all sorts --- orchestra, dance band, rock-and-roll,
parade, recital, etc --- under the single name of "gig"?

=========================

What is the purpose of a language? To be beautiful or wise or
pleasurable in itself? Or to describe many different things ---
beautiful or not --- to other people? This is why the question of
whether music is a 'language' is relevant.
