This is certain to get me in deep, but here goes. Do you think that it is
good conduct during a performance to blow water out of your holes as
loudly as you possibly can? I know that this is something that needs to
be done for tone clarity, however, I wondered what the opinions of others
would be. I did see this done recently and had a very strong opinion
about the practice. Has anyone else had experience with this in any
groups that they have been in? Just food for thought...
