Bad food in China or Korea, kiddy, Debbie ? No hot water to take a shower ? Not in places where orchestras of that calibre stay, not in a hotel where they stay as "state guests". Covering a part on short notice ? For a symphony, which most of them can write down by memory. - I got the call once on tour just two hours before the concert, I had to play not just Don Juan & 4 last songs, but also Alpine symphony & Salomes dance after having played Bruckner 8 the day before & had to play it the next day again in the Musikverein (the Strauss program) & the Bruckner once more the after next day. That is normal life for professionals in travelling big orchestras. - No, it was the confusion on these sports models. They have so many keys ......

Hans, you know better then most the difficulties of touring. Bad food the night before, no hot water to take a shower, instrument trunks delayed, someone sick and covering a part on short notice. None having to do with displeasure at being in NK.
