Eek, Deleted A Comment

In the course of deleting all the spammy comments the blog gets from day to day advertising poker, viagra and other sites I don’t wish to have promoted on my blog, I accidentally deleted a comment from a person associated with the Honolulu Symphony.

All I saw was “As A Member of the Honolulu Symphony..” before my frantic attempts to stop the delete command from executing failed.

I apologize to whomever the author was and hope they will consider sharing their thoughts again.

About Joe Patti

I have been writing Butts in the Seats (BitS) on topics of arts and cultural administration since 2004 (yikes!). Given the ever evolving concerns facing the sector, I have yet to exhaust the available subject matter. In addition to BitS, I am a founding contributor to the ArtsHacker (artshacker.com) website where I focus on topics related to boards, law, governance, policy and practice.

I am also an evangelist for the effort to Build Public Will For Arts and Culture being helmed by Arts Midwest and the Metropolitan Group. (http://www.creatingconnection.org/about/)

My most recent role was as Executive Director of the Grand Opera House in Macon, GA.

Among the things I am most proud are having produced an opera in the Hawaiian language and a dance drama about Hawaii's snow goddess Poli'ahu while working as a Theater Manager in Hawaii. Though there are many more highlights than there is space here to list.
