I will be at Calgary Reggaefest. 
Make sure if you take the gig that you:
Learn a couple Brazilian rhythms. 
Agree on set performance times and durations. Chances are that you would be expected to play 10 minutes per show (each hour) all weekend.
Make sure you get paid. If you work the maximum, it would easily be worth a grand (plus meal and drink vouchers) for six members. Use that as a starting point for negotiating. Of course, they may say they don't have the budget, but I'm sure Brazil makes money at Folkfest. 
You might want to set up a bank account if they insist on paying by cheque, or negotiate for cash payment so no one individual gets dinged with paying tax on that income. 
Good luck!

Hey folks,



I got this message from Madje Nubia Cardenas, director of Samba Saskatoon

and the Brazilian Pavilion at Folkfest, and former Sambatoon member who

some of you know:



"We are organizing the 2015 Brazilian Pavilion and as we always do, we try

to also contact local groups that may be interested to come out and

perform at the Pavilion. Therefore, please  let us know if you and your

group will be available on August 13th, 14th and 15th, 2015. Our Pavilion

hours of operation are as follows:  August 13th and 14th: 5:00pm to

12:00am; August 15th: 3:00pm to 12:00am. Looking forward to hearing back

from you at your earliest convenience and to the possibility to have your

group feature at the 2015 Brazilian Pavilion."



What do you all think? My choir iperforming at the Ukrainian Pavilion all

three evenings, but I could skip out for one to perform with Rhythm Agogo.

Who would be interested, and which day would work best for you?



Cheers!



Neil
