Unfortunately, they need me to put their PowerPoint presentation together.
My wife is good friends with the executive director, and she�s been hired to do some PR work for them. The opening concert of the season is Saturday, and there are a zillion things to do before them. One of them is putting together their pre-concert and intermission PowerPoint presentation, where they thank all their sponsors and give info on their upcoming concerts. My wife knows next to nothing about PowerPoint. I�m sort of a PowerPoint expert-by-default, since I�ve had to learn it in all my past jobs. So I get to do it. I�m pretty sure my wife got handed the job because our friend knew I�d step in. So instead of being a symphony clarinet geek, I�m a computer geek.
At least we got free tickets. And my nephew is subbing in the percussion section.
BTW, sub auditions are today. I decided to wait until next year and play out this year in the community chamber orchestra and the wind symphony. I need the practice and experience.

Ralph,
I get your point, even if you don't seem to get your own point! If I could get near to any symphonic orchestra here in Paris for whatever reason (putting a ppt presentation together, turning the page during rehearsal, emptying the bins) I would run and do it, so just enjoy the good time!
