Andy & Carolyn,My thoughts on the cumber bunds: First, even on the green room
they're always a bit of a pain getting hooked/unhooked. I think we should just
leave them on and not be messing with them when we are there behind the altar
(distraction to the audience). However, I believe we can quickly and easily
(and more discreetly) whip our vests on without too much trouble. Also, I
think in most cases our vests will cover up the cumber bunds anyway. Those for
whom it doesn't (?); Well, we can "hike-up" the cumber bund under the vest
just for that part of the concert.
All else seems very good! Just my thoughts on that one part.
What say you? Rex Salthunrexsalt@xxxxxxx
