I said: "THE PERCUSSION ARE TOO LOUD!!!"

Clarinetists do have one advantage over most other wind players, we can sense our pitch (though not our tone quality so much) via conductance of the vibrations through our teeth and jaw. Even if our hearing is disrupted by loud noise around us, or degraded by hearing loss, we can maybe continue playing to a greater extent than brass players, flutists or oboists.

That's my theory and I'm sticking to it, until refuted by someone who might actually know what he/she is talking about.
