Was he really there or was it a recording? My hunch is that it was
prerecorded and the call was made by some electronic gismo.<br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I got the most bizzare phone call
this morning. I was totaly asleep, 1:45 AM local time, (Las Vegas). I
am awakened by the phone ringing and I wander down the hall to the
answering machine to see who could possibly be calling at that hour.
After the record tone there is piano music. Good piano music mind you,
but not good at 1:45 AM. I'm muling in my head what local technician
could be playing this cruel joke, (We just had a PTG meeting). When
the music stops it is not at all what I would have guessed.</font></div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Some guy I have never heard of comes
on and talks about what a great piano player he is and that he is
looking for a job. He says he lives in North Carolina, (It would be
4:45 AM there), and is literally auditioning over the phone. I had no
desire to talk to the guy so I didn't pick up the phone. He continues
on to say that he is "Damn Good" and that if anyone is looking for a
piano player to please give him a call. "Even if the answer is no
please call me". At that point I almost picked it up to tell him where
to stick his piano but I was really too tired to get into it. A
few thoughts: </font><font face="Arial" size="2">What idiot would call</font><font
face="Arial" size="2"> at 1:45 AM, </font><font face="Arial" size="2">audition
over the phone thinking I would care, and then </font><font
face="Arial" size="2">actualy think that I would now be willing to
help him get a job 3,500 miles away?</font></div>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">His name is Bill Ansel of Cary, NC.
Anyone ever hear of this guy? Anyone else get a call like this?</font></div>
