worst gig I have ever played.I sold my entire equipment after that summer and it took me a couple years to get back to playing music again.Great job for a beginer or a teenager student looking for some extra cash.

| If I was retired and didn't have a day job I sure would be mighty tempted. I've traveled through the Badlands a couple of times and really found it to be a special place. Truly befitting of a National Park, especially if you like geology. I'd think there would be somebody who'd want to hop on this job. Besides, someone needs to keep the steel position filled. Be a shame if they don't fill it. |

I'd do it again, but I'm already busy this Summer so was unable to accept Curt's offer.
The only down-side to me was being away from home for over three months. Everything else is as Curt describes it. I made some good friends, played a lot of golf, and put on about 10 pounds! There are minor irritations as with any gig, but nothing out of the ordinary.
Call me next year, Curt!
