The way we book here is on a quarterly basis....
I am very curious about how the programmers have decided to schedule in
this way, Kalia. Did they get together and decide to do it this way, or
did this just naturally happen? In the last few years, I have noted that
it can be a real challenge to try and schedule gigs, since the time
frame varies so significantly from dance to dance. A few dances, such as
the Concord MA Scout House, follow the quarterly rule (with exceptions
for traveling callers/bands from far away). But others seem to schedule
up to a year (or more!) in advance. I would also enjoy knowing the
thoughts of other callers on this subject.
