Subj: Church gigs

I find church performances most difficult. One has to sit there while the
reed gets progressively dryer. No opportunity to keep it performing properly.
Then you are expected to to make a delicate entrance with hundreds of friends
and relative watching. I'm so surprised the horn speaks at all that I lose my
composure. At my other gigs I can fuss and fiddle to my hearts content. Any
suggestions??
