Yes, wavy reeds can cause problems when you play on them; squeaking or stuffiness, at least. Personally, I always carry a 1" x 3" piece of plexiglass, or whatever they use now instead, in my case. Rather than guess whether there's a problem, every time I put a reed on the mouthpiece, I get it wet in water (my saliva seems to be harder on reeds than many other people's), put it on the glass, and hold the tip down with my thumb for a few seconds. Saves a lot of problems, but prevents me from blaming the reed for the ones that do happen.
