Tuning Fee + hourly fee for each hour of standby.  You need 
to work out a fee schedule with the concert hall ahead of 
time.  With regular service calls my customers know that the 
first hour is my tuning rate and each additional hour is about 
$10.00 less per hour.  This covers things that come up.
