You know what's worse?
When your trombone freezes during the 30 seconds it's away from your mouth, then when you try to change positions when you're playing, it hits you in the mouth really hard and you have to pay extra on your braces to get them unbent.

I didn't have to play much in the cold, I'm thankful. It was VERY hard for me to play the trumpet outside when it was on the colder side.

Band camp in Arizona. With very little shade.

I'd much rather pick up a frozen instrument then have to worry about it melting. And yes, your fingers may stick to a cald instument, but the pain only remains for a few minutes. If you touch a hot isntrument, you have to worry about 3rd degree burns to add to your sunburn.


Frankly, I like the cold, but I guess it is because I don't get cold.

Try playing it in the summer where it's 38 degrees Celsius (100.4 Fahrenheit) or 43 degrees Celsius (109.4 Fahrenheit)

Summer cadet marching band.

Marched for hours under the blazing sun.
And having your metal/brass instruments burning you.

Psh... I've marched in 105F/41C before... with humidity. D:

But I still remember the absolute worst of days was a day where it was only 89F/32C. The sun was blazing, there was no wind whatsoever, and the humidity was absolutely terrible.

Thankfully that didn't last too long, a storm blew in and it dropped into the 60s with a very nice breeze!

But seriously, marching in the cold is not good. I am like the biggest fan of cold weather where live, but marching in it is a no go for me. Although I would have loved to have marched in the snow... Never happened. crying

I absolutely cannot march in the cold. I prefer band camp in the summer...for me, the cold makes me hurt even more (I have horrible knees and muscles), it makes me stiff, and it makes it harder to breathe so I have to use my inhaler constantly and sit out occasionally. I haaate doing that. D= I don't have much body fat, so I feel much worse in the cold than I do in the heat...unless we don't get enough water breaks.

Only 105f? Wimp! Try 110f with humidity and no shade in the middle of band camp. Then tell me try complainign!

105F and 110F feel pretty much the same.

A 5 degrees difference is not enough to make me a wimp. lol

I always thought Arizona had dry heat anyway.
