I'm tuning for a concert tomorrow at our local Art Assoc. by a big name, new, jazz quartet (and I've forgotten the name at the moment!). The piano is a poorly ?refurbished? Steinway. Loose pins (bringing CA). After much ado about fitting the tuning into *their* schedule (never mind mine, but I understand) the production company contracting the service balked a bit at my tuning fee then asked for more and more service. Sorry guys, under these circumstances, you pay for tuning - you get tuning.
