The only way I can keep all the concerts that I’m doing straight is to create a kind of spreadsheet for them. It would probably be easier if it were an actual spreadsheet, but really what it is, is just a series of informational pages. I have a checklist of questions to ask each presenter and I make notes about what the answers are and when I’ve gotten them. If I were more technically minded, I might do it all a bit more formally, but that’s not how I’ve ever been able to work.
I'm appalled and hate what's going on with our country but love the way you surmise it.
