Re: Reed Plastc Bags

We all have our own way of dealing with reeds and whatever works is great. You can't argue with success but I would not be a clarinetist whatsoever if I had to mess around with reeds as much as others seem to do. I have about 4-5 reeds that I rotate and that seems to work for me. No plastic bags, no humidifiers, no smoke coming out of my ears. After seeing so many people carry on about making a reed as perfect as possible, I tried all the gri-gri and voodoo on reeds to see if I was missing something but when all is said and done and after 45 years of searching and trying to find correct humidity, the best thing I have found is to train myself to be able to play on "not that great" of a reed once in a while.
