Re: Etiquette...again

Warming up onstage vs. offstage is a matter of preference. I've played in groups that greatly preferred each. Wouldn't put that down in rules of etiquette unless you mention that it's specific to your ensembles. When the tuning note comes, warming up is over.

For the "During the event", are you talking rehearsal or performance? There's different etiquette for each. For example, "During a long solo or a quiet passage when you’re not playing, don’t talk to your stand mate, play around with your instrument, or move your chair or stand around." is an example of good etiquette in a rehearsal, but doing ANY of those things during a performance is out of the question in most circumstances. For a performance, "Do not make significant unnecessary sounds of any kind" should suffice.

"Listen to what’s going on around you and adjust your playing accordingly." is a matter of musicianship, not etiquette.

Quite a bit of the audience etiquette section is a matter of opinion, in my opinion.

I'd try to consolidate the items about unruly children, as well as the items about flash photography, cell phones, and applause. It gets a bit obsessive and snippy, and with that much focus on them, the reader will probably forget the other items. I did.

I might also ditch the anecdotal stories.
