Say what?

I spent several favors last year getting some friends a gig.
It fell apart because the "scheduling was bad."

They've been *handed* another opportunity for a similar gig.
"There is so much drama, we don't want to be involved in that."

You may have valid input, the orginal gig was at a Filk con, and the offered gig is a large mainstream con.

The orginal issue (which I should have included) was communication. After getting things rolling, I was asked to step out of the loop.

Neither side followed up well, then when communication of schedule happened, it was "oh bad timing." But then again, no availablity list had been sent to the scheduler.


What deeply disappointed me and yes, pissed me off, was the drama quote.

Supportive audience, free membership (of a con they want to attend) and bit of email over just the next month, blown off with a single line.

See comments lower down for the other viewpoint. Which will probably reveal to you who this is about.
