Such horror stories are why I always carry two complete oboes with me to rehearsals and concerts.

To Shelley I suggest you purchase a spare top joint -- Loree and a few other manufacturers make plastic top joints which have an excellent sound (and are very convenient when playing in cold halls or drafts); and they are often also sold on the used oboe market. I have seen listings for them on several oboe dealers used instrument sites over the years. I can actually successfully use a spare Loree top joint I have on my Marigaux 2001. And then, while you are playing on the spare top joint, I would suggest you seek to have the repairperson pay for the manufacturer to repair the damage, even if it means replacing the damaged top joint.
