[TPIN] Playing in the Cold

[James Calore]

Thanks for all the cold weather playing tips!
This venue (with a covered tent and fire pits) can't compare to UP'ers 
and Canadians and Marching bands that regularly play outdoors, but the 
obstacles are similar. I appreciate y'all sharing info & experiences. 
Now, at least, I'll have a few things to try next time.
Thanks all!

James
