Well the list looks excellent to me NewJedi. I do have one thing I feel like I should add though. This is not necessarily just an entertainer problem, but obviously can be annoying. I would like there to be some method of kicking people from the group that you cannot see. I have been leading the entertainer group in theed cantina for a while now, and we keep getting people who go LD or just log out and they poof, but their "ghost" still takes up the slot. I know this is not such a serious issue 
but it definitely is annoying when you have a group of 20, but 5 people are LD and can't be ejected from the group to let other entertainers who are ATK in the group. Definitely a great list!

Send it. From the Combat Upgrade post, we'll be part of the "non-combat profession" fixes coming after the CU. Which isn't too bad. At least we're on the schedule.
Can't wait. Maybe they'll finally getting around to fixing the buff-bot issue. (put in a friggin' window with "type 12345 to buff this person".)

I agree with everything but #5.
In my opinion, lack of attention from developers should be at #5 instead of /register since it's more of a long term project, and having it in our Top 5 might open up a few eyes to how seriously we care about the future of our profession.

This is how I would like things to be fixed
1. Improve the buff interface and increase the power of our buff.
2. New songs, instruments, and sounds!
3.Fix the bug (feature?) that requires us to keepthe nalargon and ommni box targeted constantly.
4. Many Musicians would like to be able to heal or buff in a greater variety of places.
5. Fix /register.
6. Better gig missions, and better content generally.
7. Stop buffbots!
1. Important that this works well. Maybe use some kind of question that you have to answer to continue buff. That would get rid of many buffbots and I see thats what many people want.
2. The songs are getting really annoying after a while. Im glad we have the option to enable/disable sound. Actually /stoplisten also works for the band ur playing in, so that could maybe be improved to turn on the music for entertainers.
How about a music box where we "record" a song and when we are leader in a band, that song can be played by all musicians that have the right song-playing-level. I would love a posibility to somehow create our own songs
3. Yeah a bit annoying that u cant click anything else. Could be equiped in the same way as every other instrument
4. Agree. Atleast be able to heal more places (both wounds and BF). U cant even heal BF in a camp at the moment. Maybe a system like doctors where we would need a droid before we could start playing in the wild.
5. A better way to show people where to get healed would be nice.. Maybe the posibility to build ur own "cantina" in your house where ur band can heal like a real cantina and where u can registerit as cantina.
6. Should be special "missions" before I would go out doing them. Should give some special itemsthat could be used in crafting instruments.
7. Not a big problem for me. I buff people if they want it and if they find a bot, let them use that. Or else see 1

Ideas at random...
They could make instruments have condition which goes down dramaticly if a macro is being used. - Promotes ATK gameplay...
They could make us actualy target our group buffs
They could add the "X wants to hear Y flourish" < blank >;< yes >;< no > idea...
I dunno, will they ever fix us?

2. Improve the buff interface and increase the power of our buff. Musicians cannot tell whether their buffs have been properly applied. We get no message like those Doctors get ("you have enhanced x's Stamina by y"); nor can we tell by examining the recipient's HAM bar, since we buff only secondaries. In addition, Musicians remain unhappy that our buffs are shorter and less powerful than Doctor buffs, and that we have no self-buff.
adding to this, how about being able to over-buff, so we can refresh or replace weaker buffs?

Ok this may have been posted already but, my biggest issue is with the instraments, why are their 6 horns, 2 percussion, 1 string, and 1 piano? Can't we trade some horns for lets say a pipe organ, steal guitar, and maybe a flute. Also while I'm hear, its been awhile since I was a muscian but I'm getting the skill back now but in a group all you can hear is the horns you can't hardly hear the bandfill and you can't hear the omni box at all, not sure about the narg havn't got that skill back yet. New songs are great too.....damn xp for the western and dance is a motivation killer though. I'm just getting tired of SOE always thinking that xp grinding is the answer to slowing things down, I mean I know that they are just slowing things down to make money, but in this road they have lost more money then they made. Its about content now!!!
