Both tunings required pitch raises/lowerings. I left home at 9:30 > Terry, et al. When I used to tune for the Mississippi River Festival many moons ago, I experienced the same thing you did, sound checks, excess noise, waiting time, etc., Because of that, the clock started running at the time I was asked to be there. Then I charged a tuning fee (don't want to mention prices, right Paul :)) for the first half an hour, and then my tuning fee for every hour after that, no matter what I did. I got "time and half" on Sundays and Holidays. I have done a couple of "concert" tunings since then, and get paid the same way. When I tell them how my fee structure works, it is surprising how accommodating they are to get me in and out of there in a hurry.
