It’s a busy week and the time to write the article I wanted to post today about non-compete clauses didn’t materialize so it will have to wait until tomorrow. But I want folks to start thinking about it before we jump in tomorrow. In particular, think about the recent Peter Neo/Philly Pop and Philadelphia Orchestra Association (POA) split.

How To Comment Without Looking Like An Ass
Given the proliferation of contentious labor disputes over the past year, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that comments coming in to those respective articles can be filled with a great deal of passion and emotion. At the same time, those sorts of comments can be the primary reason behind making the respective author look like a thoughtless ass, which is probably not the sort of image they wanted to project.
Ready Or Not, The 2011 Website Reviews Are Coming
It’s that time of year again and we’re tooling up the 2011 Orchestra Website Reviews. Everything is being set into motion a little later than normal this year in order to accommodate my consulting schedule so that means you have a little bit of additional time to make sure your site is up to date and ready for evaluation.
A Stunning Summer At Jackson Hole
Although it’s not a habit of mine to post media from my travels, I figured that if fellow Inside The Arts blogger Brian Dickie makes a habit of it (check out his recent series of posts), then it isn’t a bad thing. As such, the time at Jackson Hole, WY for the Grand Teton Music Festival (GTMF) was one of the best I can recall over the last decade.
JAC-ORD
I am heading back to Chicago from Jackson Hole today, I know we are one guest author contribution short but we’ll see about getting it up later in the week. Between now and then we’ll start to look at recent events from Philly and elsewhere. In the meantime, I’ll be thinking about where the buffalo (technically bison) roam.
