Rebecca,
Although new to the group, I too have new and valued clarinet. It sounds
like you are describing a pretty moist event and I for one would be very
fearful of exposing my instrument to that kind of weather element.

I am also worried about moisture. I'll try to describe the setting of the
theatre as best as I can. The stage is on one side of a creek and the seats
are on the other. The pit has a platform over the creek and we are below the
ground level, so it is pretty moist down there. The music is usually moist
after the show is over nomatter how wet or dry the air is. I have no idea
how weather effects wooden instruments. I just don't want it to crack. I
would probably go into a deep depression because we all know how protective
I am of my precious. Remember the car incodent???
