Ashley --
Can't remember what oboe you're playing, but if it is not resin/plastic, etc., PLEASE take to heart what Darlene (oboe1960) says above. Oboes don't like cold.
As a former clarinetist who had played that instrument in all sorts of inclement situations, I did not take seriously the idea that an oboe could crack in the cold. I took my (then almost-new) beloved Covey to a rehearsal in an unheated theatre, and came home with a crack running from above the trills and down into the first tone hole.
Try really hard to find a resin or plastic instrument for your outdoor gig, OK?
Susan
