Hurrah! Now I can buy my tickets for the season! Unfortunately after talking with some of my friends involved, I suspect this is not over. There is a lot of resentment, anger and angst over what has happened. The contract may be settled but the fences may never be mended. Sad that it has to be this way.
I am fortunate to have a great job that feeds my family well, but music feeds my soul.

As a patron, I just recieved an email with this link attached. As you can see by comparing the statements, there is still a gulf between the views expressed by management and the musicians. This is unfortunate but almost expected in today's world. Spin and posturing have become ends unto themselves it seems. It appears the publicity department is still under contract.
