Session singers have their own separate Award? http://www.airc.gov.au/looseleaf/list/AW796048_intro.htm
And that under that Award, professional session singers are supposed to get paid for time spent at auditions, rehearsals, and sound tests? That if more than 21 minutes of final material be recorded in any one session, the singer gets paid more? That penalty rates apply for Sundays and Public Holidays, but not Saturdays? That if a tape of an audition or demo is subsequently used for recording purposes, the singer is supposed to be paid as if that's what had been intended in the first place? That more than three hours work in one session counts as overtime? Penalty rates apply for any work performed between 11pm and 8am? That if an engagement is postponed without 48 hours notice, the singer gets paid 50% of their fee? And 100% if cancelled without 48 hours notice? Except where this occurs due to the singer not turning up or being unable to perform or other contingency beyond the employers' control (I assume this means if the studio burns down)?
I didn't.
