    Sorry, but I once played at Inner Harbor at Phillips in Baltimore, 
the gig
was SUPPOSED to go from 1 to 5...  Well, snow started falling and at 4, 
I
got a call from the boss, telling me the guy following me couldn't get 
out
of his driveway and could I play the next shift from 5 to 9?  I said 
yes,
being younger and greedier and played the 5 to 9 shift and, THEN he 
called
me back about 8 and said the NEXT guy couldn't make it - could I play 
the
last shift from 9 to 1 - YES, friends, 12 hours of piano and vocals, 
and I
was a SINGLE - no one to help me out or take a chorus!  (My voice left
about 12 and the next day for the only time in my life, yes, my 
fingertips
HURT!!!)  I still get shivers thinking about that experience!
All the Best,
Steve Heist
