Re: NorthEast Stick Seminar, April 30-May 1 Hamden, CT Thanks to Brett for organizing this. It's been almost 4 years since the New York seminar, and there are so many players in this part of the world. Looking forward to it.

Re: NorthEast Stick Seminar, April 30-May 1 Hamden, CT Heh yeah, when it came to the cost my reaction was "That's it??!" Seems quite well priced to me.
I can't wait - I need to do some hardcore practicing between now and then!

So, using your math, that works out to $462/day per instructor. Assuming 15 students and they all get lessons, which for most instruments range from $50-75/hr - each teacher is giving 6-9 lessons per day at $50-75/hr. Wow - these guys are just screwing these hapless students. Give me a break. It all seems pretty reasonable to me...

Re: NorthEast Stick Seminar, April 30-May 1 Hamden, CT The pay rate goes down a lot more if you factor in the hours of practice and lesson planning. I remember using food stamps during my days as a flight instructor and it wasn't fun. If y'all ever do a seminar like this close to Charlotte NC, count me in.
On a related subject, there are a few decent music clubs in the CLT area. Some of you East Coast Stick people might wanna consider doing a gig here (hint hint nudge nudge)
