CONTRACT DEPARTMENT
Summer Suite
It’s the good ol’ summertime, when all the trees and leaves are green,
the livin’ is easy, and days are lazy, hazy and crazy. It’s the time for hiking,
biking, paddling a canoe, going to the beach, catching a ball game, grilling
in the yard or whatever it is you said last winter that you were going to do
when summer got here. It is also a time to enjoy the music of summer like
a performance of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at Ravinia Park, or a
free concert featuring the Grant Park Symphony at the Pritzker Pavilion in
Millennium Park.
Many Chicago area musicians spend time away from Chicago during
the summer performing with organizations such as the Santa Fe Opera,
Glimmerglass Festival and several Door County, Wisconsin institutions
including Midsummer’s Music Festival, Birch Creek Music Center, Peninsula
Music Festival, Washington Island Music Festival, Peninsula Players Theater
and Northern Sky Theater.
There are indoor performances to enjoy as well. Chicago area theaters have
been blooming with world premiere productions lately. Sense and Sensibility,
and Shining Lives completed successful runs in June at the Shakespeare and
Northlight Theaters. On Your Feet, The Story of Emilio and Gloria Estefan, is at
the Oriental Theatre for a short pre-Broadway run through July 5. Beaches, a
musical based on the movie is at the Drury Lane Oakbrook Theatre through
August 16. Gotta Dance, will open in December of 2015. The fact that so many
creative teams have chosen to have their musical production be born on stage
in Chicago speaks well of our audiences, actors, local producers, theater staffs
and the skilled professional musicians who bring the musical score to life. It is
truly a successful team effort that has, through the years, brought world premier
pre-Broadway musical productions of: The Goodbye Girl, Victor/Victoria, Movin’
Out, Spamalot, The Producers, Kinky Boots, Bounce, Aida, The Last Ship, Amazing
Grace and others to our city.
Finally, I am pleased to let you know that a tentative agreement has been
reached, pending ratification, for the Grant Park Symphony. I want to thank
the orchestra committee members Stephanie Blaha, John Floeter, Michael
Shelton, Terri VanValkinburgh and Tom Yang, Vice President Terry Jares and
CFM attorney Kevin Case for their work in these negotiations. Thanks as well
to the negotiating team representing the Grant Park Music Festival: General
Manager Leigh Levine and Chicago Park District Deputy General Counsel
Beka Reierson. Lastly, thanks to the Chicago Park District for its continuing
commitment to supporting the Grant Park Music Festival, ensuring that this
unique series of free summer concerts, now in its 81st season, will continue to
inspire and delight audiences for years to come.

CELEBRATE
It has been 40 years since Andy’s Jazz
Club became a musical haven for
Chicago jazz. Trumpeter BOBBY
LEWIS, whose most recent CD is
Mellifluous Tones, was on board almost
since the beginning. He, with his
quartet and fantastic singer JoBELLE
YONELY, another participant in the
evolution of Andy’s fame, were invited
to be an integral part of the celebration.
JoBelle Yonely
This is where we go back in time for
more of the story. JoBelle’s father, “The
Great Yonely,” was a very popular act
for dinner-dance gigs in the ’60s. Billed
as a “humorist”, he was featured on the
Tonight Show and Mike Douglas Show.
You now can access “The Great Yonely”
on YouTube. This very funny, creative
man was beloved by all the musicians
who backed his act on jobbing dates.
JoBelle grew up around musicians like
LOUIS ARMSTRONG and AL HIRT.
In Chicago, she worked all the clubs
with every notable jazz musician on
the scene, including IRA SULLIVAN,
VON FREEMAN, EDDIE
JOHNSON, JOHNNY FRIGO,
WILLIE PICKINS, HOWARD
LEVY, and JOHN CAMPBELL.
She has worked jazz festivals across
the country, recorded seven of her own
CDs, performed for PRESIDENT
BUSH, Sr. with LIONEL HAMPTON,
and is a co-founder of Chizil, a
Brazilian/Jazz group in Chicago. She’s
shared the stage with RED RODNEY,
CLAUDIO RODITI, GEORGE
CABLES, MANFREDO FEST,
STEVE GILMORE, RUFUS REID,
LOUIS BELLSON and many more.
Paralleling her jazz career, Yonely was
the first call studio singer and voiceover
for more than 20 years in Chicago. She
has recorded thousands of TV and radio
commercials, and is the solo voice on
all the spots including McDonalds,
United Air Lines, Sears, Wrigleys,
Coors, Budweiser, Special K Cereal,
Hallmark, Sunkist, Honda, HBO,
Lifetime Channel, to name a few.
She currently resides in Las Vegas,
where she was invited to be on the
faculty at UNLV while continuing to
perform festivals, concerts, corporate
gigs and nightclubs.
HAVING SOME FUN
In a recent discussion, a friend
mentioned an old, old song title “When
It’s Apple Blossom Time in Orange New
Jersey, We’ll Make a Peach of a Pear.”
To which another wag added, How
about “She has the Biggest Aspidistra
in the World” (That’s a tropical plant,
you know…or did you?) Then there is
“Celery Stalks at Midnight,” or “You
Can’t Have Your Kate and Edith Too.”
However, my absolute favorite is the
country/western lament “When Your
Phone Don’t Ring, It’s Me”.
TRIBUTE TO CLUB DATE PROS
Reading “Musician’s Voice” in Allegro,
Local 802, NY’s magazine, we found
a letter written by LARRY ABEL
extolling the talents and requirements
allotted to jobbing musicians. He
wrote, “The leading [N.Y.] club date
bands from the 1950s to 1970s such as
LESTER LANIN, MEYER DAVIS,
PETER DUCHIN and others engaged
only musicians capable of playing all of
the Broadway show tunes, commercial
standards and popular songs of the day,
faking harmony parts without one sheet
of written music in front of them. When
a name act or artist would also be on
the date with written orchestrations, the
players were expected to play the parts
flawlessly with only a ’talk over’ rather
than an actual playing rehearsal.”
Chicago bands such as LOU BREESE,
LEW DIAMOND, BENNY SHARP,
BUD DINWIDDIE and many others
met the same requirements. Thank you,
Mr. Abel, for reminding us of another
facet of musicianship. Saxophonist
DICK DAUGHERTY deserves a
mention here for his CD Versatility
which demonstrates and lauds_the
particular ability of jobbing musicians
to play on request any music style.
When the Daughertys visited in Phoenix
along with the STEWART LIECHTIs
(he, of trumpet persuasion y’know)
we delighted ourselves with recalling
“the many things we experienced over
the years,” wrote Stew. “It gave me the
feeling of being very fortunate to have
worked with all those who made up
the substance of our lives in the music
business .We were very lucky” Yes,
Stew, we were and are so lucky to be a
part of this business and to know and
appreciate the talents each one has. And
the humor!_as RON FRIEDMAN has
said, “There is no stand-up comic who
can match the asides and wisecracks
you can hear in the sections of a band at
any given time.”
FROM: CHICAGO JAZZ
PHILHARMONIC
Frequent CJP guest artist and audience
favorite HOWARD LEVY returned as
a member of Trio Globo on April 24
and 26. With fellow artists EUGENE
FRIESEN and GLEN VELEZ, Levy
and Trio Globo blended world music,
jazz, and classical music in “Four
Corners of the World”. Performances
were at North Shore Center for the
Performing Arts and Chicago’s Beverly
Arts Center, respectively.
Trio Globo
BOBBY LEWIS and his trumpet
joined singer PETRA VAN NUIS
and guitarist ANDY BROWN in an
April Sunday afternoon concert at
the Lincolnwood Public Library and
brought his “Tribute to PEGGY LEE”
to Evanston’s Whiskey Lounge in late
May. He toured with Lee, performed
with her and was her musical director
for many performances. He shared
experiences from those tours with his
audience…..STEVE HASHIMOTO,
on bass, joined “The Twisted Roots”
trio for springtime entertaining at
the Lansing (IL) Public Library. He
followed that with his Sueños LatinJazz Quintet’s return to The Sidebar at
Fitzgerald’s, in Berwyn IL…..Chévere,
the fabulous Latin jazz band played
Fitzgerald’s as well.
GREAT IDEA
The Lakeside Singers’ spring concert
series – “Song and Dance” – debuted
in mid-April exploring the electrifying
relationship between music and dance.
The audience was invited to “move
your feet and celebrate singing and
dancing with music by DEBUSSY,
BRAHMS, WILLIAM BYRD,
DUKE ELLINGTON, MICHAEL
JACKSON, THE SWINGLE
SINGERS, Flashdance, Hairspray
and guest artist, ZADA CHEEKS, tap
dancing to the music of Duke Ellington.
The group has added a new venue
for performance: Elmhurst Christian
Reformed Church – 149 West Brush
Hill Road, Elmhurst, IL in addition
to the Music Institute of Chicago in
Evanston, 1490 Chicago Ave. and the
Fourth Presbyterian Church , 126 E.
Chestnut Street, Chicago.
FYI
The Chicago Philharmonic
Chamber Players (cp2) finished its
Spring 2015 series at City Winery
(1600 W Randolph, Chicago, IL)
on Sunday, May 31 with a noon
performance of “Heavenly Harps:
Dance Music from Handel to Muse.”
The concert featured a harp quartet
performing arrangements of both
classical and popular music, including
the “Hornpipe” from HANDEL’s The
Water Music and an arrangement
of songs by the popular rock band
Muse. Original arrangements of
works by PAGANINI, DE FALLA,
MASSENET, ORTIZ, and TAMEZ
are also on the program, which was
fashioned around a central theme of
dance music…..
On an unhappy note, we hear that
Chambers restaurant in Niles has
closed. What a fine dining venue that
showcased so much talent and harbored
such musical friendships. It will be
missed….
STEVE HASIMOTO’s Sueños
Latin-Jazz Quartet played the Grand
Reopening ceremony of the Morton
Grove Public Library. He also notes
his Mothra CD, Tradewind, is now
available on an individual basis, as
are the rest of the year’s series of
releases, from Chicago Sessions.

Steve Hashimoto
Or, send him $15 and he’ll send you
a copy. If you send him $25, he’ll
throw in a copy of the Sueños CD,
Azul Oscuro. His address is
826 N. Cuyler, Oak Park IL 60302.

David L. Kaplan
1923-2015
Sam Distefano
1926-2015
Sam Distefano was a jazz-pianist and talent exec born in
Chicago, Dec ‘26. Distefano and pianist, Bill Evans were
stationed together at Ft. Sheridan in northern IL. He moved
to Miami where he performed with jazz trombonist, Carl
Fontana. He graduated from U of Miami in ‘57 with a 4YR
bus degree. Distefano performed in many of the Chicago’s
nightclubs, such as The Cloisters, The Trade Winds, and
The Living Room, relieving such famous
pianists as Joe Parnello (Frank Sinatra’s
pianist), Larry Novak, and Joe Iacco on
their off-nights. It was at one of these
clubs that Victor Lownes and Hugh
Hefner caught Distefano performing with
his trio for female vocalists. They liked
Distefano’s playing enough to hire him
at the 1st Playboy Club. This launched
what would turn into Distefano’s 25YR career with Playboy
Enterprises, Inc., that included being musical director
in Miami from ‘62-’69; orchestra leader, conductor, and
entertainment director at their country club and resort hotel
in Lake Geneva, WI from ‘69-’78 (where he led his own
32-piece orchestra, accompanied on piano, and conducted
for, such artists as Peggy Lee, Mel Torme, and Tony
Bennett); and eventually vice-president of entertainment
for their entire chain of clubs and hotels, worldwide. A
Chicago VIP, Distefano was often featured in Kupcinet’s
“Kup’s Column” and on local radio and television shows like
“PM Magazine Chicago.” Immediately following his long
run with Playboy, Distefano was hired by corporate tycoon,
Meshulam Riklis, in ‘84, as vice-president of entertainment
and special events at Riklis’ Riviera Hotel and Casino in Las
Vegas. Distefano booked many events there including worldheavyweight-championship-boxing bouts, concerts, and fullscale production shows like “Burns and Hope Together;”
the “Crazy Girls” sexy revue; and the award-winning,
multi-million-dollar production-extravaganza, “Splash.” He
was a guest on KVVU’s Las Vegas hit television show, “AM
Southern Nevada,” as well as a judge on the popular ‘80’s
and ‘90’s series “Star Search,” with Ed McMahon. Distefano
had 1 sister, married in ‘67, had 1 child in ‘69, and divorced
in ‘78. His personal interests included traveling, fishing,
billiards, yachting, and poker (he was the 1st place winner
of 3, large, int’l poker tournaments at the Riviera and Desert
Inn Hotels in ‘88 and ‘94). He participated in many large,
8
Intermezzo
July 2015
charitable, fundraising events in both Chicago and Las
Vegas. A devout Catholic, he attended Mass regularly. Sam
also enjoyed music with his son (who also plays piano
and drums). Distefano retired from the Riv in ‘93 and
formed his own entertainment firm with his son, which they
operated until the senior Distefano developed Alzheimer’s
in ‘03. Distefano resided with his son and was with him in
NV at his time of peaceful ascent to Jesus due to natural
causes in his sleep, MON (3AM 4/13). Sam is survived by
his son, Michael; Goddaughter, Claudina Vespia; ex-wife,
Pam Johnston; nephew, Gary (Sharon) Kurnat; niece, Linda
(Casey) Kowalski; grand-niece, Allison (Stephen) McCuan;
grand-nephew, Steven (Whitney) Kowalski; great grandnieces, Aubrey McCuan and Daphne Kowalski; and great
grand-nephew, Cooper Kowalski.
The College of Arts and Science mourns the passing
of Professor Emeritus David Kaplan, one of the most
influential and passionate cultural leaders of our university,
city and province. Dr. Kaplan spent nearly 40 years teaching
in the Department of Music, during which time he inspired
and helped launch the careers of countless
students. While serving as head of the
department between 1964 and 1982, he
introduced many new programs, such as
bachelors’ degrees in music and music
education, and several new graduate
degrees. He played a pivotal role in
shaping a department with which almost
every music teacher in this province has had a connection.
Always a visionary, Dr. Kaplan believed that music forged
meaningful international connections, and former students
from abroad, moved by his belief, have remarked that
they owed their lives to him for “offering us scholarships,
teaching us with patience, caring for our life in a foreign
country and showing us the true love of a great Canadian
teacher.” Doctor Kaplan continued to interact with former
students on a regular basis, many of whose lives and future
successes were shaped by his encouragement, enthusiasm
and guidance. Dr. Kaplan shared his expertise with the
Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra as conductor and music
director and gave highly engaging pre-concert talks. His
passion, energy and unstoppable humour enriched lives that
might not have otherwise been touched by the value and
beauty of music in everyday life. He was a prolific composer
in many styles, and his compositions and performances
have been enjoyed by thousands over his many years of
artistic activity. A member of numerous cultural boards
and organizations across the province, Dr. Kaplan was
devoted to community service. For this lifetime of work,
he received the Saskatoon Order of Merit, the Order of
Canada, Saskatoon Citizen of the Year, the Queen’s Jubilee
Gold Medal, the Saskatchewan Centennial Medal and the
Cornerstone of the Community Award. The last recognized
him in his 90th year as a vital part of Saskatchewan’s
cultural fabric, without whom the province would be a lesser
place. The same can be said for his citizenship within the
university and the College of Arts and Science, which owe
him an eternal debt of gratitude.

Intermezzo 11
The Film Musicians Secondary Markets Fund (FMSMF) works to serve the film,
television and music communities and meet the needs of film musicians
whose talents fuel the industry. To this end, the FMSMF is pleased to provide
ongoing updates to Intermezzo for the benefit of Local 10-208 members:
A New Record! The FMSMF closed its 2015 fiscal year, which
ended on March 31, 2015, with the highest level of contributions in
the Fund’s history! When the books closed on March 31, the FMSMF
had received residuals of $92,315,936, surpassing the record of
$89,282,621 set in FY 2013. The continued growth of contributions
to the FMSMF during the seven years since the Great Recession is a
testament to the continued growth of revenue generated by sales in
secondary markets, such as Pay TV, DVDs, Basic Cable and new media
platforms -- a good news indicator about the health of this segment of
the industry and its ability to sustain a middle class living for freelance
talent working in film and television.
We’ve Moved! On May 1, 2015, the offices of the Film Musicians
Secondary Markets Fund (and the Live Television/Videotape
Supplemental Markets sub-fund) moved from Studio City to Encino,
California. When the Fund moved into its Studio City offices in 2001,
our staff consisted of 20 people. The Fund staff has almost doubled
since then, and our Studio City office became very cramped quarters
leaving no room for needed growth. By the end of FY 2016, our staff
will consist of 43 employees with the addition of new staff needed
to support the Fund’s collections and compliance work on behalf of
musicians. The new Fund offices not only represent a financial savings
with a significant reduction in rent costs, but the Encino location
provides more square footage to accommodate, more efficiently, the
Fund’s staff and operations today and into the future. Please make a
note of our new address starting May 1: 15910 Ventura Blvd., Suite
900, Encino CA 91436. Our phone numbers remain unchanged.
Unclaimed Residuals: Thank you for helping to get the word out
-- we reached our goal for 2015! At the beginning of this fiscal
year, we set a goal to find as many “lost” musicians as possible and
distribute $1 Million in unclaimed residuals. With your help, we met
and surpassed our goal: during the 2015 fiscal year, the Fund staff
located 570 musicians and beneficiaries who had unclaimed funds,
and distributed $1,173,000 in unclaimed residuals since the start of the
fiscal year.
FMSMF is using our traditional magazine advertising in Music
Connection to focus on increasing awareness to musicians who may
have unclaimed residuals. We also are deeply appreciative to the
Federation and the AFM Locals who have assisted with outreach to
musicians who may have unclaimed residuals waiting at the Fund.
The Fund will continue to put emphasis on finding musicians with
unclaimed residuals, and will continue to ask your help in getting
the word out. Please check the FMSMF unclaimed residuals list
at www.fmsmf.org/unclaimedchecks to see if you or a fellow
AFM member you know has unclaimed residuals waiting for them.
In particular, as a reminder about AFM-covered sound recordings:
If a covered sound recording is used in an AFM-covered theatrical
or TV motion picture, the musicians who worked on that recording
may be entitled to secondary market residuals.

Intermezzo 15
JAZZ VANGUARD EXITS CHICAGO
By Charles A. Sengstock, Jr.
The years 1926 through 28 were
significant for jazz in Chicago. For
nearly a decade our town had been
the jazz capital of the world, but that
title was about to pass to New York
as a vanguard of Chicago jazz
musicians began moving to the Big
Apple. It was not a sudden exit but a
significant one.
The first major Chicago jazz
musician to leave for New York with
his band was Joseph “King” Oliver,
the great New Orleans trumpeter,
who had been in the Windy City since
1918. Oliver left in spring of 1927
for an extended engagement at the
Savoy Ballroom.
The following year Jelly Roll
Morton, the iconic jazz pianist and
pioneer jazz composer, left Chicago
for New York. He was already a bestselling Victor recording artist with his
Red Hot Peppers band; and his many
compositions were widely played
by other orchestras. He even made
a lengthy MCA-organized tour of
the Eastern U.S. and part of Canada,
riding high on his growing popularity.
Joe Oliver had played at some
of the most popular south side
nightclubs and his popular band made
two successful tours and had many
best-selling jazz recordings for both
Okeh and Gennett. In New York,
Victor gave him a recording contract.
At the close of the Savoy run he broke
up his Chicago band but continued to
play and record in the East with new
groups he organized.
It is interesting to note that both
Oliver and Morton were at the top of
their game when they left Chicago
and assumed they would have
continued success in New York. Sadly,
they were wrong.
Louis Armstrong perhaps was
an anomaly. The brilliant young
trumpeter, who had made his mark
with the Oliver band at the Lincoln
Gardens in 1922-23, had gone to
New York in 1924 to join the Fletcher
Henderson band at Roseland
Ballroom. But he was back in Chicago
the following year, working with his
wife Lil’s band at the Dreamland Café
and doubling at the Vendome Theater
with Erskine Tate’s pit band.
Sidemen Barney Bigard and Omer
Simeon also left town during this
period to work with bands in New
York. The young white jazz players
were part of the exodus too: in the
1927-28 period Bud Freeman, Gene
Krupa, Joe Sullivan and Eddie Condon
also relocated to New York mostly
to work in bands there and do some
recording. Jimmy McPartland and
Benny Goodman left town for
Louis Armstrong (© 2015
Charles A. Sengstock, Jr.).
16 Intermezzo
July 2015
New York in 1928 with the
Ben Pollack band.
New Orleans trombonist
George Brunis and Chicago
trumpeter Muggsy Spanier headed
east a bit earlier (about 1925) with
the Ted Lewis band, with which they
remained for a number of years.
Louis Armstrong, after returning
to Chicago, remained until 1929
when he left town for good to
appear in New York in “Connie’ Hot
Chocolates” and from there eventual
stardom on record, in the movies
and through his worldwide personal
appearance with his band
The question then is who stayed
behind? The most notable of the early
jazz giants to remain in Chicago was
pianist Earl Hines, whose band was
working at the Grand Terrace, a classy
black and tan club on South Parkway,
now Martin Luther King Drive.
Ironically, Hines remained in Chicago
until the early 1940s. But because
of the band’s nightly NBC network
broadcasts and his many records,
Hines had become a popular touring
attraction throughout the eastern U.S.
and Canada, and later all of the U.S.
Other jazzmen remained behind
in Chicago during the 1930s: black
trumpeter Natty Dominique, the
Dodds Brothers (Johnny and Baby),
pianist Art Hodes and many others.
Hodes later ventured to New York
in 1938, where he worked until
his return to Chicago to become a
stalwart bandleader in the 1940s and
‘50s during the Dixie revival.
The Depression shut down a lot
of work for the musicians and it was
a struggle at times. Both Oliver and
Morton were having trouble too
dealing with the rapidly changing
style of music and an inability to
locate sidemen capable (or willing)
to play in their style. Also both were
later troubled with health problems.
The white Chicago musicians
in New York also suffered during
the Depression, but being generally
younger they seemed to more readily
adapt to the changing styles. Many of
them worked in Broadway theater pit
orchestras and others worked for radio
networks and found opportunities in
the recording studios.
Benny Goodman, an active
sideman in bands and on recordings,
eventually took a dance band on the
road and became the “King of Swing.”
Bud Freeman, after working with Ben
Pollack, Tommy Dorsey and Benny
Goodman, launched the Summa
Cum Laude jazz band, which both
recorded and played engagements,
one at Chicago’s Panther Room. And
Muggsy Spanier led a popular group
in 1938-39, the Ragtime Band, and
also briefly had a dance band in the
early 1940s.
The departure of so many
musicians did not totally shut down
the music scene in Chicago at first,
but the introduction of talking pictures
certainly did, eventually eliminating
most of the theater orchestras. The
Depression dried up a lot of work
opportunities too. The one saving
grace was the Century of Progress
World’s Fair held in Chicago during
1933 and 34.
Chicago’s reign as jazz capital
had begun in1915. Two significant
bands, later considered the vanguard
of the New Orleans influence on
music in town, arrived that year: the
Original Creole Band was booked
into the south side Grand Theater in
February, and Tom Brown’s Band from
Dixieland arrived three months later
to play at Lamb’s Café on Randolph
Street. While the Creole Band played
a modified version of ragtime, the
Brown ensemble played what was first
identified in Chicago as jazz music,
although a bit rough sounding.
Several more New Orleans
musicians and groups arrived in the
following years to play in Chicago
clubs thus starting a wave of northern
migration by New Orleans musicians.
By 1918 the city was gaining its title
of jazz capital of the world. The music
quickly became popular and grew
out of the nightclubs and cabarets
into the theaters and, from there, into
the popular culture through the many
new songs being written by such
artists as Clarence Williams, Eubie
Blake, Ferdinand Jelly Roll Morton,
King Oliver and others.
Another popular venue for
disseminating the new music was, as
mentioned earlier, the theaters. The
Vendome and Grand Theaters were
located at the 31st and South State
Streets intersection. The Vendome, in
particular, featured jazz music during
the overture. Other theaters along the
“Stroll” (that section of State Street
between 29th and 39th Street) such as
the States did much the same. Some
of them featured acts with jazz music,
and most had bands that played the
latest hits.
Chicago was a major terminus for
vaudeville acts touring on the various
booking circuits, so the interchange
of musical ideas helped the further
spread of the music’s popularity
throughout the country. In New York
the new radio networks and growing
recording opportunities clearly
confirmed that it was now a hit maker
and the hub of contemporary music.
By 1950 jazz had gone through
many iterations and developmental
changes. The Dixie revival from 1947
through the late ‘50s drew a lot of
the former jazzmen out of retirement
and back on stage, reigniting interest
in Chicago’s early role, which had
largely been forgotten. A wave of
new publications by jazz scholars,
researchers and writers since then has
kept the flame burning.

RULE II. FILING OF CONTRACTS AND MEMOS:
On all engagements, whether single or steady, CONTRACTS must be completely filled out with full name
of purchaser and leader typed or legibly printed and
signed by both parties. Contracts are available at
the Union or on our website at www.cfm10208.com
prior to the commencement of the engagement, or
in lieu thereof, a written, faxed or phone-in MEMO of
an engagement will be accepted prior to commencement. To leave a memo for an engagement, call (312)
782-0063 at any time or e-mail [email protected]
and give the following
1. Your name
2. Your phone number
3. Your union account number
4. Date of engagement
5. Time of engagement
6. Place of engagement
7. Contract number

NOTICE: CONTRACTORS & AGENTS: protect your
leaders! LEADERS AND SUB-LEADERS: protect
yourselves! It is the responsibility of the leader on the
job to verify that contracts are on file with us prior
to the engagement. Call the contract department to
avoid initiation of action against you for non-filing. If
you then learn that we have no contract, file a memo
to protect yourself.
NOTICE: Some members seem to be under the mistaken impression that contracts need not be filed prior
to the engagement date. This is erroneous. The Business Agents have been instructed to prepare charges
immediately upon finding members playing without a
contract or memo.
By order of the Board of Directors.
NOTICE: (Clarification of 15% Payroll Fee) Our scales
include 15% payroll charges, over and above the
Leader fee, to enable the leader/contractor to make
proper payments and deductions to appropriate
Governmental Agencies. If leader/contractor does
not assume these payroll responsibilities, sidemusician must receive this additional 15% as wages.
MUSICIANS—“Examine your paychecks.”
If leader has not withheld the proper deductions, you
are entitled to have the 15% Payroll fee added to
your check as wages.
MEMBERS desiring to offer their services gratis must
first obtain permission from the Board of Directors.
It is Board Policy that members’ requests to perform
gratis for worthy causes will not be entertained unless we are assured that all other participants are
donating their services.
Leaders or engaging members are responsible for
the payment of Work Dues on all engagements.

Dues if the leader is negligent.
