     I, too, would like some clarification on this.  A private gig is
one thing, but--while I think a "music in SF" con headed by HW would
be a cool thing--well, that's basically a regular gig in an unusual
venue.  I'm not sure whether the list would be as keen to finance that,
no more than they would be to finance other regular gigs.

Cheers,
Carl
