Another trenchent and practical observation from Joe S. Carry the horn at your side when traversing icy walkways. Some years ago in the teeth of some very inclement weather I was making my way on a snowy sidewalk with my tuba on a wide strap over my left shoulder with the horn hanging off my right side. I took a fall on some ice. What did I get? A bruised shin and a small ding in my bottom bow.
