Hi All, Hopefully you'll get this as I'm trying out the Ottawa Musicians list service National Capital Freenet has set up for me to maintain my musicians' contact that Sympatico no longer supports. Each month more musicians, venues, promoters and others involved in live music events in Ottawa and area use the service provided by the DIY calendar. If haven't already updated any gig listings you have for this and future months, it's a good time now to review the DIY schedule to add any new gigs you'd like listed, update any that have changed and delete any repetitive gigs that have ended of been temporarily suspended. Just Click www.localendar.com. Then, enter 'mygig' in the User ID and 'giglist' as the password. This will access the schedule for the current month. On that page you can add gigs for either the current or future months. You can move to the next or other months using the right arrow. This allows you to see what upcoming gigs are listed for you and to adjust them if necessary. The link below gives a more graphic illustration to using this service that should help you work with it for your listings: http://ottawa-blues-jazz.ncf.ca/giglist2.html#guide Please save this e-mail for future use.
