And as a bari player, the whole standing up thing can get a bit tricky as its a big lump of metal to move about as is reading music from the desk-type stands big bands use.

One time when I was playing bass clarinet we were all required to stand to play the national anthem (GSTQ) at the beginning - this was a last second decision by the MD. Stand and play. With a low C bass clarinet. I managed to move my chair in front of me during the drum roll to rest the floor peg on it.
