Crap.
Last night I was playing in a rehearsal of "How to Succeed..." and on a quick instrument change hurt myself.
I had my alto hooked around my neck while I was playing clarinet. The last note before the clarinet change to alto was a three finger c, so I started to lower the clarinet to the peg playing one handed while I steadied my alto with my right. All was going well until I caught the edge of the bell on the peg and chipped off part of my top left front tooth. Damn. I can't get a dentist appointment until Thursday (maybe) and I've got another rehearsal Wednesday night. It is pretty uncomfortable to play.
Any suggestions? Other than don't bump your clarinet into the peg while lowering it onto the stand!)
