I'm one third of a dance organizing team. The person who does our bookings of bands and callers has frequent brain farts. My husband (3rd part of team) and I have had to make hasty repairs many times. I try to stay in the loop of email transactions, but that isn't always possible, depending on how our booker contacts people. I would advise trying to find whether there is more than one person you could contact, and copy them all with all your correspondence. Better odds. -Amy in Seattle
