Getting ready for an up coming gig requiring wearing mask. So today was kind of a dressed rehearsal with the mask on. Though I used to think I couldn't do it, this is actually my 3rd time playing out with it. Curious if others are doing the same.
Okay, we have a practice today so I'll see if we can record a tune or two. I slip the harp under the mask clench it in my mouth like a stick (or should I say a tin sandwich) That leaves my hands free to tuck the mask over the harp a bit better. It works with the surgical mask cuz they can move around esp when moving around through the scales. It wouldn't work with the n95 style masks
Mostly it's not practical when you are using 2 harps and of course we love gigs that don't require a mask but the assisted living places are pretty strict, you log in on the computer when you arrive etc.
I use a bullet style mic and that I hold on the outside the mask in my hands like I would normally do.
I think I first got the concept here in the forums and finally worked on it to make it happen.
Good luck and I see if I can post something a bit later on.
