why do they call extended engagements in las vegas "residencies"? some of what they call "residency" deals are for a dozen shows or less. it seems to me a residency would be a permanent, years long contract for at least 5 nightly performances per week. these people are not "residents". they fly in an out like moths at the luxor beam. multi-show arrangements are inappropriately called residencies.
