GIG ALERT
Josh Groban
Radio City Music Hall
February 14th, 2020
The AFM Touring office has informed us that the Radio City Music Hall engagement On February 14th of the Josh Groban’s Great Big Radio City Show is currently not under an AFM agreement.
AFM members who are contacted to perform for any gigs by Steve Trudell/Trudell Orchestras, Gina Corso/Jersey Gina /Karen Banos/ Rittenhouse Music or by any of their subcontractors, please be aware that Trudell, Corso and Banos are currently on the American Federation of Musicians International Unfair List.
As professional musicians, we must take a stand against taking jobs at sub-standard rates far below what we deserve. We not only cheat ourselves by accepting such engagements, but we also cheat our colleagues by setting a precedent that it’s acceptable to undervalue us and our work. Any musician performing at a major venue like Radio City Music Hall deserves to earn a fair wage and benefits in line with industry standards.
AFM members shall not render musical services for organizations, establishments, or people who have been placed on the International Unfair List.
Any member who violates this rule shall be subject to penalties in accordance with Article 11, Section 13 of the AFM Bylaws.
If you are contacted to participate at this engagement, please alert the Associated Musicians of Greater New York, Local 802 via email to aschwartz@local802afm.org or the AFM Theatre, Touring and Booking Office to tgagliardi@afm.org or the Philadelphia Musicians’ Union, Local 77 to local77@afm.org
