---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment List, This is a continuation of the thread last week concerning the George Winston rider contract. He played here last evening and I thought (since this is extremely fresh in mind) would share a few things: This a warm, caring, gentleman-void of extreme personal ego normally associated with many who make their living on stage. He appears to be very detailed in all aspects of his life and expects the same for those around him. I would also say that he is "obsessed" with his music. This is not something he can turn off or on....it's apart of him and it's obvious that the music a big burning flame inside of him yearning to get out. From the insomanic-timed rehearsal (arrived at 1:15- left at 6:30AM) to a full 3 hr. performance-this artist had energy to burn. Whether you like the style in which he played or not, it's hard not to sucked into sitting back and enjoying the whole event. Mind you he played to a crowd that generally was over 65 and over who couldn't care less about "New Age" styled music. And at first there were some comments like ..." what the heck he is trying to play". But slowly the crowd also got into and became quite engrossed into the whole event. A few words about the rider: Don't get too worried about the wording of the rider. Give him a well regulated, voiced piano, with solid unisons and you'll be fine.
