giglet - A shorter than usual length gig; the *usual being 3+hours with two 15 min breaks (one including a meal) and full bar *privelages. Whereas a "giglet" will be less than two hours, no breaks, no drinks or food and one has to enter through the back door of the kitchen at least an hour ahead of time. One good thing is that the leader/musicians will charge a preminum base and double premium in 1/2 hour segments for overtime...

I won't even start the *comparisons.
